Imagine your worst panic attack.

Times it by 100.

A green Sprite bottle, given almost a mythical introduction in a frenetic monologue, slips out of the hand of a character and roles into a puddle of water. The camera, finally imparted from its intense close-ups to a God's eye long shot, lingers just for a second as it rolls into a puddle where it could be misconceived as trash. An object of everyday life that has been signified with narrative agency (A MacGuffin up there with the Arc of the Covenant) once again resembles its indexical reality. No neon lights or close-ups to enlarge its importance, just a piece of misplaced trash left by some dirtbag scum.

This movie is what happens when we observe the trash we avert our eyes to—what we're taught to ignore—and really look at what's inside.

it’s like if pete davidson the person were somehow adapted for the screen

like a remake of ENTER THE VOID as directed by the ghost of Sidney Lumet. some questionable details and it doesn't sink under the skin quite like Heaven Knows What, but Robert Pattinson is truly next-level in this thing.

feel like i've said this before, but now it's *really* time to recognize him as one of the best actors of his generation. between him and Kristen Stewart, i'm willing to officially move TWILIGHT into the "win" column, so far as its cultural contributions are concerned.

wish i could think about this movie for longer than 3 seconds without getting good time by owl city feat. queen carly rae jepsen stuck in my head. seriously, i’ve been trying to write down ANYTHING i can think of but the line wha ohh a ohhh ohhhh it’s always a good time is just ... incessantly taunting me. i don’t even like this song. actually, i think i hate it. actually, i know i hate it. please consider renaming your movie, safdie brothers. i know it’s a little late, but how am i supposed to join in the Discourse when this dumb song is haunting my every thought?

i'm never drinking sprite again

owl city and carly rae jepsen's iconic 2012 BOP good time isn't in this movie, totally false advertising, 0/10

Loved it more the second time and found a lot of flaws the second time. I realized this was my gateway into “””challenging””” films my sophomore year of school, which sounds so lame, but is the truth! For that, I’m grateful this film exists for opening up my palette. 

Robert Pattinson son of a bitch...you really had a good time.

why do i love movies about the worst people so much x2

An underlooked performance by Robert Pattinson!

I am stressed. What a chaotic ride. Robert Pattinson nails this role. The safdie bros know how to take a bad situation and keep making it worse. 

Some interesting side characters but nobody gets too interesting  because you spend so much time with Connie. Wouldn’t recommend this movie if you’re trying to unwind for the night.

There were no good times had, only bad times

i had a good time watching people not having a good time

There’s no beginning or end. 

There’s a quick hint of exposition, followed by a long (perhaps overlong) middle.... then a last scene. 

I’ll check out uncut gems but I can not help but feel like the safdie brothers “rule breaking” on story telling doesn’t have the best returns.

Brilliant acting, editing, soundtrack, and cinematography. The lines even are pretty good.... just not the story arc.

This was a really good film. There was a lot of action and the music was super good and fit the movie really well. I don’t really know what else to say so yeah

this film was freaking INCREDIBLE. I think the Safdie Bros are quickly becoming some of my fav directors.

Esta pelicula es una genialidad
todo el estilo que tiene la hace espectacular incluso para mi es mejor que uncut gems por el manejo de la historia y tambien su fotografia es genial, y lo mejor sin duda es la actuacion de pattinson
