The Neon Demon

Minimalistic plot, amazing music, lacking visuals.

A solid Refn kino.

???

That's what the film is all about.

It's great for the most part, but some scenes fell absolutely flat.

>>79890280
I liked it a lot, but probably would've been less patient with it had I not seen it stoned. But that can be said about a lot of movies that tell their story more through visuals than through dialogue.

>fell absolutely flat.

What does that even mean?

It means that while most of scenes were visually thought-out and had artistic merit, there were several that where either executed poorly or presented as more artistic than they actually were, thus becoming pretentious.

I don't think it's unfair to say that being stoned can dilate your senses. It's not like you need to smoke to like anything, but it can certainly help, and you don't have to be a stereotype to understand that.

>there were several . . .

Like?

people who have never smoked weed are irritating. it's not the big boogeyman you think it is, nor is everyone who has smoked/smokes weed a fucking stoner stereotype.

How did you manage to quantify how artistic the scenes were and how did Refn "present a scene as artistic"?

If you need to as, you're a pleb.

No I thought you were talking out of your ass and I don't think I was wrong.

My favorite film from last year

The twist really got to me and I couldn't stop thinking about it for a few days after the first viewing

9.5/10

I dock the 0.5 for Abby lees ugly mug.

Started off as an 8/10 but as each act passed, ended up as a 5/10.

Sad!
