My second watch
Classic spook stuff. Really appreciate these characters, I think it's easy for movie dialogue to seem corny in something that's this stripped back in presentation, which it does a couple of times, but, at least for the most part, the performances keep it all feeling like these characters would really interact in these specific ways.

Probably the most painful experience of my movie-watching life. I don't exaggerate when I say that I spent a good majority of this with my eyes wide, my jaw hanging down, and my face contorted into a puzzled expression, in genuine awe of how horrendous and dull this is. The acting is beyond wooden, the dialogue is almost purely made-up bullshit being mumbled through, and someone needs to tell Snyder that slo-mo and symmetry don't necessarily make for good…
