Anyway...it's definitely frustrating when reading about a movie and trying to get a sense of if it's one to hyped for or not.

Totally agree with this! I find I'll often have to stop myself from recommending a film I love because people seem to evaluate quality based on if message and worldview synch and only want confirmation bias. A movie is "bad" if it says anything they don't like or the character's values differ etc

Funny enough it's the film where where I can now say I've been fully converted to your Jeremy Strong is terrible take. Some very cool stuff about the process of making an album but can't resist adding the boring tropes about what haunts him from the past etc

It's the prequel we need

(Also, I've always been a little confused that Inherent Vice wasn't more warmly received - damn cool movie!)

That's great to hear! Only one IMAX 1.5 hours away from me and it's a science centre so it doesn't get big movies until way after release (joys of small town Canadian life). With luck I'll see it there though for my second viewing!

Can't wait to see this one again! How's it hold up? Round 1 was that rare, completely overwhelming watch for me where I was able to get completely lost in the experience. Just drifted somewhere between the cast doing great work and that transportive score and loved it
