Last Night in Soho

This is my kind of movie. Very interesting, cool and different. An artistic visual style with good music. Dark in all the right ways. Great performances, especially by thomasin mckenzie. Whatever schtick she was doing was so adorable, made it easy to get emotionally invested in her character. It's not perfect movie, but i really enjoyed it and look forward to watching it again.

No one could accuse this film of not being sufficiently unique, glossy, and ambitious. There is a plethora of originality and brilliant ideas in this film. It's just that the screenplay doesn't seem concerned with anything other than ambition or style. The writers don't care if it makes sense, so long as it looks cool and feels weird. The first half of the film is filled with intrigue, but that intrigue gradually crumbles as the repetitive dream sequences drag on and as more information is revealed. The plot twist at the film's climax is supremely obvious and it makes no sense, not even bothering to answer the sole question that the story has been posing: where are Ellie's visions coming from and why? There are several intriguing characters, plot threads. And themes that are completely abandoned in favor of ineffective jump scare sequences that add nothing to the story. Lastly, NONE of the horror elements work here. None of the scares are earned-just thrown in with loud noises for cheap thrills. Edgar Wright, stick to comedy and action. It's what you're good at.

I understand what Edgar Wright tried to do, but I could not help but feel that this story would have been more intersting if it were less horror focused and more of a straightforward mystery with flashbacks.

In Wokeness movies, everyone who is bad looks the same, they all have the same exact characteristics....and every good character looks the same with the exact same characteristics.... I'll let you figure out what those characteristics are...Once you spot it, you cannot unsee it. AND ITS GETTING EFFING OLD! WAKE UP HOLLYWOOD! EVERYONE IS GETTING SICK OF THIS CRAP AGENDA YOU ARE PUSHING!
