Immortal banger.
Honestly kind of astonished by how much I enjoyed this given how much I also hated it.
The AUDACITY of that Lord Byron quote. Guillermo, my dude, what on earth possessed you?
Breathtakingly beautiful to look at (the costumes! the production design!), with that "no chill, light camp" energy that makes Crimson Peak such a banger, but wow, do the wheels ever come off the wagon, especially once we hit "YOU ARE THE MONSTER," and the finale is unforgivably unearned.…
I never thought I’d find myself asking “what is the perfect movie to watch after an attempted coup that ended with the cops just letting people stroll out of the Capitol” but hey here we are.
This is the answer. A beautiful reminder that some people are sometimes compassionate and kind.
