I am still unsure whether
Coralie Fargeat meant for
The Substance to be taken seriously or not. There was a similar misunderstanding when it comes to
Lars Von Trier's
The House That Jack Built, where the audience were laughing, unable to comprehend in the intensity of the film, while the director was dead serious. The experience I had watching
The Substance reminded me of this confusion. The film is so over the top, it beats the absurdity of
Sam Raimi's horror-comedies.
O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a middle finger to the KKK

In 1915,
David Wark Griffith done shot a mighty picture
The Birth of a Nation that glorified them horse‑riddin’ Klan men. By ’37,
Archie Mayo stitched together
Black Legion), a film about that very group, a splintered band of the same old Klan order. When the movie showed the Klan in a harsh light— a fascist lot—the real Klan sued. Fast forward to the turn of the millennium, the Coen brothers (Joel and Ethan) looked back at the madness of yesteryear and the even wilder present, and thought, “Let’s get them Klan members to dance.”

Snake Eyes 1998 is De Palma's attempt at restoring his Hitch spirit

Watching the opening scene of
Brian De Palma's 1998 film
Snake Eyes makes you realize that this motherfucker is trying very hard. We have 13 minutes of
Nicolas Cage running around a very crowded set. The scene is clever with its camera, giving us multiple layers of exposition in the same time. Like there could be a TV on the foreground and Cage on the background. And they seem unrelated at first, but the scene establishes most of it's plot details right in this very shot. And then the shot ends ( 13 minutes later ) at the exact moment, the script drops the "inciting incident". De Palma is really trying hard to direct the shit out this movie.

With 9% Rotten Tomatoes score 2006
Kurt Wimmer film
Ultraviolet starring
Milla Jovovich cannot possibly be any good, can it? Well I re-watched it for this review and while I somewhat see where the critics are coming from, I also have enjoyed the hell out of it.

Shazam! Fury of the Gods is another
David F. Sandberg film that has an issue with it's opening. I just reviewed his film
Until Dawn and if you can survive the not so good dialogue of the first couple of scenes, you are in for a very good movie. This film has a similar issue.
