Bo Burnham: Inside (2021)
Inside
Is it the most clever take on the world? No. Does it contain takes that's been heard before? Sure. Are the themes obvious and "woke"? I mean we can only talk about limited number of things in this world.
Is this a unique presentation in a unique setting made with new content? Yes. Can the presentation of a subject be worthy of a 10/10 rating? Yes. Does that mean absolute perfection? Not necessarily. Will *everyone* find this funny? No. But those who do and who like the brain that came up with these things, for them it is a take and a truth they have been waiting for. It's a thing that you cannot go without when you've first seen it. It'll forever be a reference to topics that was explained or portrayed to perfection - in your view. Hail to those that are seeing 10/10 perfection in this. To those that don't like it; fair. It's not for everyone. But for the ones that can hear the songs over and over and see their life reflected in the setup and the topics this is perfection and it's 10/10 entertainment. It's not about being smart or intelligent or better. It's about the world being presented in a way that just clicks with you.
Glass (2019)
Could have been so perfect
I really liked the premise of what this movie could be. Unbreakable was amazing - so large and open. Split was really tight and unnerving. Glass could have played on both themes. And during the parts where I wanted to be surprised I was not even right - I was underwhelmed.
"Was that what they were going with?"
They had so many ways to execute so many parts of the plot and the story in general, but so many defining points where just flat and boring and cheap.
In general I got a really cheap feeling from this movie. To a degree that could be excused by wanting to resemble a comic book, but that's inconsistent as other parts are "true to our world".
Unfortunately very disappointed with this installment but still love the premise of approaching super heroes like this.
Flinch (2019)
Innocent crappy fun
It's a "free" show. There's much else to choose from on Netflix. You have a good range of quirky personalities and random challenges. It's short and to the point. Laugh at their reactions and random expressions. Just have it on in the background or drink some beers.
It's not high culture. Chill.
