Everyone here is dumping on it. I'm gonna try and get tickets.

It was far from a perfect movie yes but it was weird and fun and I loved it. I say "go back to the club" all the time now.

I unironically love it and think it will be a cult classic in 10 years. It's so stupidly ambitious and unapologetic. It's beautiful too. I love how you find out in the first scene that the main character can stop time (the only one with any kind of superpower) and that turns out not to be very relevant for the rest of the movie. Fuck Chekhov's gun, amirite. Frank stockpiled wine money for years to make exactly what he wanted to make and damnit he did. I'll happily see it in theaters.

That time pause scene was great. Let Adam Driver do his thing and set the tone for the rest of the film but also leave room for the more gonzo things like whatever Shia Lebouf was on
