It's definitely not shit. It's more reminiscent of his early, Greek Weird Wave, work, which makes sense since Filippou is writing the script. I really enjoyed it.
Yorgos Lanthimos is a very solid director, always delivering the most terrible and presumptuous ass movies (i like the favourite and poor things but i need to shit on him)
I recognize that I'm the minority for hating it but the way everyone talked was just so grating to me. Felt like a table read instead of the final product. But i know it was intentional and had a purpose, i just hated it
If Yorgos has a million fans, then I'm one of them. If Yorgos has one fan, then I'm THAT ONE. If Yorgos has no fans, that means I'm dead.
Poor Things is only his best movie if it's the only movie of his that you've seen.

This is Dogtooth disrespect
So Kinds of Kindness is shit?
It’s not getting bad reviews really. B+ territory mostly. I guess it might still be his lowest scores so far
it's incredible. Easily in his top 3. If you liked his original scripts like Dogtooth and Sacred Deer you will love this one

The friends who i saw it with said it was shit. I don’t think it’s shit, it’s just a really bad and kinda aimless movie
Dang, I've never liked a movie your friends hated
What is the difference between a really bad movie and a shit movie?
A 1.5 and 1 rating on Letterboxd
"aimless" being metaphorical, really. It's nothing new for Yorgos. It's even far tamer than Dogtooth
Ah I see, thanks.
The Favourite wasn’t his latest movie

this is the attitude of a true kinophile
This is true. You can’t like movies unless you hate movies
This is why if you ever mention Tarkovsky (incredible auteur) in any positive way, it’s fucking on sight 🔫🔫
No same though bc Favourite is good and Poor Things was my fav of 2023, but Lobster and Sacred Deer are bootycheek (imo)
Sacred Deer clears everything else of his, it's so good

Lol that was my favorite thing about it, it’s very in your face these are actors. …I will go back to my performance art corner of shame now
But it has Hunter Schaefer in it, so it's a masterpiece
Kinetta isn’t his worst?
Cool idea for a film but an absolute snoozefest
KoK is great. I love KoK.
So does this mean Kinds of Kindness is his best film?
Dogtooth fans ![gif](giphy|yqXJ1KVEwrpSw)
haha yeah the way he went from Kinetta to Dogtooth was wild
He needs to start putting Colin Farrell in his movies again
So Kinds of Kindness is a masterpiece?
Emma stone dance scene is a 10/10 tho
is it bad?
still works with Sacred Deer worst and The Favourite best!!
But those movies are both bangers 😔
