You Were Never Really Here - Joaquin Phoenix stars in a Q fantasy about a man with a certain set of skills out to rescue the Lt Governor’s daughter from a sex trafficking ring run by...The Governor.
In spite of the absurd plot, there were a couple of amazing things about the movie. First, I really enjoyed the score. Second, Phoenix kills a ton of people with a ball peen hammer without ever getting a drop of blood on him. That’s tough to do.
Wait, he does get some blood on him when he gets shot in the face and removes the bullet with a pair of pliers.

I assume you weren't a fan?
It was fine, it was just really hard to look past the plot after goofing around in the Q thread this afternoon. It felt like one of those things you could get away with in a Clint Eastwood movie from the 90’s, but just seems silly now.
Sorry if I spoiled the movie, but I don’t think the story is the appeal here.

Bohemian Rhapsody (2018). This bugged me as soon as the 20th Century Fox fanfare played using Brian May guitar harmonies. Everything about it feels so contrived. Why does Freddie swing his microphone around with the stand? Because at his very first live gig, he couldn't figure out how to remove it. The record executive who boldly states "Bohemian Rhapsody will never be played on the radio!" is played by Mike Myers. Ugh. What a pile of suck. The guy who played Brian was fantastic. Rami Malek was okay except for the poorly lip-synced singing scenes. Just watch a Queen concert instead. It's not like they're rare.

Earlier on I compared it to the VH1 Def Leppard biopic. Seriously, watch that and tell me that BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY isn't just a much more expensive, slicker version of that.
Shit like the scene in the Def Leppard one where they fire their original guitarist and are sitting at a bar going like "What are we going to do? How are we going to find another guitar player...?" and they suddenly stop as they hear someone shredding in stage behind them. They turn around and it's Phil Collen.
BOHEMIAN RPHAPSODY is not above bullshit like that.
