The Curse
Fantastic cringe comedy balanced packed with some of the most unsettling scenes (many of them) you’ll see all year. <PERSON> is a genius. <PERSON> continues to shine as an actor himself while at same time showing his immense talent behind the scenes.
But it is the stunning and always amazing <PERSON> who winds up stealing the whole thing. She’s been given a despicable character in Whitney and a difficult role yet she manages to pull this off easily and resulting in one of the greatest performances i’ve seen. She already gave another masterpiece of a performance and difficult role in Poor Things. I’ve been a massive fan of <PERSON>’s since I first saw her in Superbad (and of course one of my all-time celebrity crushes) and have found to be one of most talented living actors in Hollywood but now after watching this and Poor Things, I think she just cemented herself as one of the greatest actresses, period. 217
Combine that with her impressive and amazing 2010s run, she’s absolutely crushing it right now!
I’m going to be straight with you, I did not expect to love this one at first but as it went on and continued to keep me hooked in along with another all-time <PERSON> performance, I loved it. It was surreal. Also, props to <PERSON> bringing in <PERSON> (Good Time reunion, hopefully more collabos with these two from this point forward) and giving him a role that’s not limited and allows him show that promising talent that he showed when we first saw him burst into the scene in Captain Phillips. Because after Eye in the Sky, he’s been either typecast or wasted in roles that doesn’t let him do much else. So, props to both <PERSON> & <PERSON> who I honestly believe suggested the producers to cast him in this. Awesome. 657
