Good movie but bleak and I don’t particularly need that in my life right now. My dad is starting to slide a bit and that’s what i spent most of the movie thinking about.

Some great lines but still the least comedic of the movies this director has made. It’s certainly not like the trailers I saw.

For as much as people are praising Malcovich, I really thought Rockwell was amazing. Really liked the main actress.

It’s infuriating reading about the true events of this story. American officials passed American citizen information to the torture squads in Chile. Really really fricked up.

Will be seeing it next week. Mcdonagh is very hit or miss for me. In Bruges is one of my favorite movies of all time, but I didn’t like 3 Billboards at all, and didn’t like Banshees nearly as much as everyone else did. 7 psychopaths was pretty good.

Great performances but bleak as frick for multiple reasons. It's closest to Banshees in tone. After the initial amusement of Malkovich being a loose cannon, I got a little bored, but then when tensions started ramping up it kept my attention the rest of the way. Conspiracy nuts are going to love it.

Although the stories are completely different, it actually reminded me of an obscure little gem called Things Change with Joe Mantegna and Don Ameche as a young guy and an old guy facing a bleak future going on a trip. At least this movie had a nice little ending; Wild Horse Nine not so much.
