Some light spoilers, but it doesn’t really matter when the point of the movie is seeing convoluted deaths rather than an actual plot or characterization, it doesn’t really matter that much.
Sure, I had an idea about what the gimmick is, so I wasn’t going in completely blind, but while I tried to find a boxset of Final Destination movies at some point out of interest, I could never find a decent one, so I have never seen the actual movies.
Here’s how I got to this list: I watched a movie called Behind Convent Walls. It was sold to me as drama and there wasn’t that much information available, so I did not have much expectations. Then I saw the cover…
Why do I even feel that I need to announce this?
It’s not that I don’t understand the movie, but what I don’t get is that what are they trying to convey with it.
Some caveats:
1) I don’t read that much. Not counting any books related directly to my work, I read between 30 and 35 books last year. That’s a fine number, but nowhere near the book-diet of some people I know. Maybe specifically because of this I might be a better example for some people, as my numbers are achievable.
2) This should not be competitive. Read as many books as you are comfortable with. Don’t read when it stops being fun or interesting or you have better things to do. Also, if you are competitive about this, that will change your habits in a negative way, because you will choose books based on what you can read fast rather than what would be interesting and you will start to read fast rather than digesting what you are reading.
3) I read a lot of non-fiction. I like to read things that will inspire my thinking in some way. This does come with some benefits regarding pacing your reading.
I thought about going with “Thunderbolts* Is Not Depressing for a Movie About Depression”, but that felt a bit too awkward.
This is very subjective and you should not take this seriously.
Little bit of spoilers here at the end, but much of this text is about the Severus and what it is, is ultimately pretty meaningless from the point of view of the story.
Well, I’m not sure what I actually was expecting. The trailer is misleading to put it politely.
There was a time when Steven Soderbergh tried to retire. Now he’s back to directing one movie a year. Presence just opened today here in Finland and Black Bag, his next movie, opens here in less than a month.
