It was a good story i was entertained. Zendaya was cold as fukk i was like damn she was the man in this love triangle and the dudes were the broads which brings me to the ending


them 2 probably went back to the room and fukked. The only time them dudes smiled is earlier on in the movie when they was together and zendaya said she not a homewrecker when she pulled they gay card during the 3some pump fake.

It was good. The soundtrack was hella good, so much so that it distracts from the sometimes mundane actions seen onscreen. I think the Social Network was alot better at handling the Nine Inch Nails score vs. subject material. I could barely focus on whatever they were arguing about shyt felt like being in a nightclub and your girl mad at you.

Zendaya had that thang tooted up in one scene I had to shift around in my seat. The girl I went with kept glancing over at my dikk, shyt was a test of will. She was looking scrumptious! :ahh:

The ending was incredible! So many dynamic shots and the soundtrack pulsating. I felt like I was right there playing doubles with these crehs! However the movie is long as shyt and some scenes drag on too long. Like we get it Zendaya aint shyt we dont need to see every thought play out on her head. But i get it, they dropped a bag on her performance so may as well. And some scenes were clearly stretched to fit the score.

Overall, its a really good movie but I think it could've gone a little farther storywise. Feels like one more big risk should've been taken outside of the freak off dynamic. Director is approaching goat status.

Because it’s still a really good movie. If you’re comfortable enough in your own masculinity then those scenes shouldn’t be an issue.

This is from the same guy who directed Call Me By Your Name. He is gay, and his filmography for the most part is unapologetic in showcasing that side. If that’s something that you can’t deal with then it would be best to keep it moving, lol.

Minus catching Anne Hathaway unleash them thangs, I've never watched Brokeback Mountain either, and I wasn't arguing the bolded.

You can not vibe with a movie, that's cool, but your previous post came across as if it's baffling that folks are coming away enjoying a film with "batty" scenes. Surely, the flick doesn't have anything else to offer to the table. No way. I don't think anyone can deny the homoerotic energy the film has, but the focus is primarily on Tashi's relationships with the other two leads and the spiraling fukkery that stems from such. Felt like it could've been a sub-plot in a new season of The White Lotus when it came to the interplay between the characters.
