Such a frustrating disappointment
For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.
One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Sorry, i am 20 right now, but I still can't get the emotion in it. Maybe few years after I become a parent, I might feel the special kind of feel in this film.
Well done, well acted, good script, an enjoyment of entertainment.
Please allow me to explain my rating system. If it is an independent film I give it five stars to start. If it is directed by a woman I add a star. If it is directed by a woman of color or written by women of color I add a star. If it is directed by a woman I add a star. If it Is directed by or by a written by a woman of color I add another star. Content matters. Anything concerning class,race, gender discrimination, trans gender discrimination , class discrimination, social issues discussed in a meaningful way, anything that passes the Bechtel test I give another star or two. Unfortunately this film was disappointing to me but I can see its appeal to others who have never seen a movie or a film that addresses anything meaningful. I have been watching independent films for decades. So this is a generous seven. Unfortunately in the previews I saw the funniest scene, talk about a spoiler, given away in the first two minutes of the film. The rest was a snooze fest. Still, congrats to everyone. No insults intended to anyone.
I watched Lady Bird on a plane. I was bored out of my mind, excited to see what all the hype was about. I had to turn it off five minutes into the movie. It is every stereotypical coming of age movie. And the main character is just a snobby brat. Not the charming kind of brat, either. It all just seems too overdone. If you'd like to watch the same thing you've seen a million times, go ahead and watch Lady Bird.
