Morning after things I didn't add last night:
- The cast was all men, save for the women who were carjacked. This makes sense from a crime perspective but makes some of the movie feel empty. That may be partly why I thought it was too dialogue heavy. It was just redundant male perspectives; the guys were too similar, save for Boss Joe.
- I loved the storytelling. I really did. I think the dialogue would have worked better in book form. With movies, you're supposed to physically show things. It's visual storytelling. I still enjoyed how it was told regardless - and it matters because budget. I would have expected better if this was a big-budget movie.
- I presume I'm not getting replies because my target audience here is participating in the ranking topic. I may want to avoid any movies on the list if what is being ranked in the future, saving them for when it's over.
I'm busy tonight and tomorrow so the next one will probably be Tuesday, unless I can squeeze in some time before kickoff tonight (Packers play on SNF). So you're aware, the sports I care about are Packers football and Badgers football and volleyball (yes, I was among the 16,833 people in the record-breaking crowd). That will impact when I can watch. Additionally, if the Brewers or Bucks make the playoffs, I'll watch those. Only playoffs though.
