Unsane sounds like my kind of movie as well, glad to hear Soderbergh is returning to form. I saw Strangers: Prey at Night and I'm very mixed on it. I love the second half of the movie, but that first half is so bad, I guess I shouldn't expect much, I don't know. I was really worried after the brutal intro and set up. The dad was not great...but I agree there were some cool set pieces and the use of music really helped raise the mood of it. Bordering on horror tropey, it succeeds in what it set out to do and that's all you can ask. It could have been so much worse and I'm sure it will be a movie I grow to love. I've been a big fan of the original for years and I think my hesitation to like it had a lot to do with expectations.

But for a movie that maybe 85% interiors, and seemingly lit by mostly fluorescents, I'm not sure it works. It reminded me of Public Enemies, a movies who's sets, subjects, and tone clashed bigly with Mann's digital photography. I hope it's more like Collateral tho, and I get over all that stuff on a second viewing Brian Sagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15266020828208581370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-10995669938373619962018-03-26T10:45:53.416-05:002018-03-26T10:45:53.416-05:00i have to say, the trailers for Ready Player One d...i have to say, the trailers for Ready Player One didn't make me want to see the movie, but seeing the good reviews for the last few days, and now Mr Riske's review, i have to go see it now.<br /><br />i was also disappointed with Tomb Raider. Alicia Vikander is perfect in the role, but the movie is a big fat MEH. i was expecting move, i actually liked the trailers for this one. but turns out it's just another origin story, spending more time NOT doing what she's known for and never seeing the dual wielding guns. what a let down. i laughed when she point a bow and arrow at an helicopter. <br /><br />as for movies shot with iPhones, i strongly suggest you all watch Tangerine. it's an awesome movie shot on an iPhone 5.Kuniderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05872530831159876322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-36535532899746707962018-03-26T08:43:11.050-05:002018-03-26T08:43:11.050-05:00I saw Unsane this weekend and liked it very much. ...I saw Unsane this weekend and liked it very much. I didn't know it was an iPhone film before going in, but the photography def8nately felt bizarre and took a few minutes to settle into. Luckily, the performances are writing were so sharp I didn't care (Josh Leonard plays the creepiest creepy fuck of all time so perfectly). I'm interested to see it again, the ending has a strange structure that I'm not sure completely works together.
