Joint ripped from start to finish. It’s cool, sexy, thrilling, and at times felt as if the spirit of Soderbergh’s past ‘Ocean’s’ films manifested itself, especially with David Holmes back on the score.
Marisa stood her own against some elite level vets here and anyone else who’s watched Industry shouldn’t be shocked. The runtime made for a tight story and an easy rewatchable. Could just as easily see this being dragged out by a director who hasn’t been in the game as long as Steven has. Him and Koepp are on a roll.
Thought it was dope the film managed to feature a Bond and Moneypenny. Brosnan showed out with the screentime he had. He is still sharp as a whistle for his age, so much that Bezos & Amazon are probably like
Fassbender keeping tabs at the theater on some
shyt had me
I need me a ride or die like Blanchett tho, fr.
The dynamic between these characters just ropes me in. I could watch a feature length film of them throwing verbal stabs back and forth at the dinner table, but I’m glad it didn’t turn out that way because the polygraph sequence was a straight up banger.

The style of this movie is incredible, compared to almost anything else. Just the opening shot was masterful. You miss that kind of confident direction. The lighting, the color schemes, the music, all classic Soderbergh. It's thrilling to see this in a theater, compared with the washed out colors of most shyt the last 10 years. The jazz score, reminded me of Grusin's classics in some of my favorites. But, it's the dude from Out Of Sight, which is a classic to me. This does feel vaguely like a 90's movie. A Perfect Murder or something like that. An exercise in style and nothing more.
I am biased because of how attractive Yasmin/Abela is to me, that's exactly who I go for - but she was excellent. Great scenes. The scene where she says "I'm not even saying no", she was sexy, funny, sharp, confident.
The movie is utter nonsense. And it would collapse under anyone else direction. The style and the A list acting holds together an absurd plot. I am no expert in the lives of British spies, but that they would be absurdly good looking and stylishly dressed, sex crazed and having a company therapist who is counseling her peers, is hilarious. Agree 100% that it channeled the best of Oceans Eleven. Brosnan was a lot of fun to watch,
The critique would be that for as fun as it is, and how accomplished, it leaves almost no residue behind. The violence has no teeth. The romance has spark but no fire. The sex is all surface level. There are no stakes. At no time was any of that believable. And I know Soderbergh knows how to do that, Traffic, Out Of Sight. A movie ticket in the trash can? Also, I would say that the movie, like the worst of convoluted murder mysteries doesn't really give the audience a chance to figure out anything. The mystery is essentially not solvable.
