Eric Hayes61 said:The story itself is pretty mediocre—it feels half-baked and never quite finds its footing. While the costume design and makeup are top-tier, Eddie is a bit much; that forced smile he carries through the whole movie gets grating after a while. On the other hand, Alicia Vikander delivers another solid performance, building on the momentum she had after Ex Machina. Ultimately, the film feels lukewarm and unpolished. It’ll probably limp to a decent opening weekend, but compared to Joy, it’s easily the weakest contender in the Oscar race.

Totally agree. It felt unprepared and didn't really hit me that hard... even when Lili. passed away, or during that last scene with the joke. I don't know 🕺
Eddie was mostly just irritating with those attempts at acting shy and awkward. Alicia was really good though 👍

I'm not saying they don't work together, but there’s gotta be a better way to show it. Or at least a way that actually clicks for me.

I'm with you on most of this, except for that bit about the third act being a drag😁.
especially when you mention 👍, because honestly, part of it totally gave me Richie vibes.

Overall, I loved it... that scene where Reggie goes back to his mom after all that crap from Ron, then that fight after Frances starts talking trash, and that final line to his brother 🙏

and obviously, Hardy 🙂 🙂

umm, you've got Dixie 😬 😁

Finally caught this movie and man, it totally blew me away. I’d heard good things, but I didn't want to get my hopes up too high... easily one of the best things I've seen in a while.
Such a beautiful, heartbreaking story with just enough humor to keep it real. Exactly my vibe.
Judi and Steve were incredible. You seriously need to see this.

Olivia Murphy85 said:Why would she ruin her own peace by holding onto hate that brings her nothing? Especially against a nasty, bitter old woman who’s basically at death's door already. As someone who stayed faithful her whole life despite being treated terribly by her own church, she showed what true grace looks like—through forgiveness. By choosing to forgive, she actually took the high road and humbled someone who spent their whole life acting holy but was actually anything but...

This. So much. 🙏
