So I'm talking about Serenity now I don't know exactly how to talk about this film. I've had to take 24 hours before I sat down from the camera to really express how I feel about this movie. Serenity is a unique experience and that's something that I can hands down give this film it is one of the most unique bonkers and experimental ideas that have been out there for a while. Something I can always appreciate from the director and writer of this film Stephen Knight he's made taboo he's made picky blinders on Netflix the most underrated Netflix show right now. He was also the director and writer of Lock starring Tom Hardy which that film takes place all in a car of just Tom Hardy driving and it's very experimental film and the story in there is excellent. We get Serenity which by the synopsis and even by the trailer it's a pretty paint by numbers film. It's all the story of Matthew McConaughey plays a fisherman on Plymouth Island and one day his ex-wife comes out of nowhere to pay him 10 million dollars to kill her now husband. It sounds like a gong girl scenario and even from the trailer it looks like a kind of gong girl thriller for the most part this film really was a thriller. The most part this film was that type of movie that you do get the trailer until a twist happens midway through the film and when that twist happens the whole film turned out to be nothing that the trailer shows you. Nice I mean the trailer doesn't spoil what the film is actually about but it also lies about what the film is about. I never really known about the trailer I didn't watch the trailer until after I'd seen the movie because I wanted to see what people were getting marketed and I understand it I don't know how you would market this film I'm not gonna spoil the twist and I don't want to even get into spoilers on it so it's gonna be a little bit hard to do this review again this is more gonna be kind of a ramble kind of a rant kind of just me expressing how I feel about the film because a lot of the cons that I do have for this movie with some of it being within the performances with how the film is shot because the film is beautifully looked but there's some shots that look really weird and I'm just like I don't get that and some certain story details with some of the side characters in here I'm like how does that character know that detail but once that certain moment in the middle of the film happens everything kind of went away I was kind of like okay that actually explains every little detail in this film to even the performances from Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway themselves now Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway are Oscar caliber actors and actresses I love them both the performances in here for the most part if it wasn't with a twist I would have been like man Matthew McConaughey what is he doing and same with Anne Hathaway she's pretty much being a porn star but then that part in the middle of the film happens and I'm like well I can kind of see why the director would have them playing their characters like this in this one-dimensional type of scenario again it's so hard to talk about this one without spoiling it but man I think you guys are wondering did I like this film or did I not well I'll put it this way this is for me a film that shoots for the stars and does not nail it precisely but it is so bad that at times it is so damn entertaining I can't express how much fun I would have had this film if I was drunk even my friend who sat right next to me we were having a blast with this film multiple times we said what the f is going on multiple times he would look over and I was in tears from laughing I almost had to walk out at one point because I was I was about to legit get loud from laughing that's what this type of film came off as for me I was laughing my ass off the whole entire time in this film there's one sex scene in here that I I lost it I lost it in this scene the way it was shot the way it was handled the acting the performances in it everything in it just I literally said to myself what the f***ing right now and I had to pull my shirt up and start and stop myself from laughing so hard really that's this is a movie it's a weird weird movie as before I get to my final thoughts let me know what your guys thoughts are on this film did you guys see it yet are you excited for it let's talk about it down below serenity in a sense is a very weird movie this is a film that is so bad that it's so good at least for me so we'll find it's weird audience and kind of a cult realm down the road again it's a weird film that is it shoots for the stars I totally see what Steven I was trying to go for but it didn't work it is not room level bad but in a sense it's kind of my room like I enjoyed this film for all the wrong reasons I think it is worth seeing because of not just the twist because it's it's not anything mind-blowing but it really is just we're seeing to have fun get your friends get drunk and go see this film and enjoy I feel bad for like someone who doesn't watch reviews and saw the trailer and was intrigued Matthew McConaughey and halfway and they want to see this film and they're gonna walk out being like what the hell did I just watch and I don't know exactly how you would have marketed this movie per se without spoiling what it's actually about but I think with some rewrites you could have easily made this subject and what the story is going for a little bit better and maybe tinker throughout it I will even say again even though I didn't have that many cons for it because I understand what the director is going for and I didn't think what he was going for worked overall one of my big cons with the film is it is way too damn long and it felt that in some of the pacing towards the middle half of the movie and I don't necessarily know what to say about this one I don't even know exactly what great to give it but I'm gonna have to give it a grade as a pure film I'd give this movie a C- it's I'm gonna give it a Pope seal of approval I'm gonna give it an A-plus for how damn crazy and how much fun I have with this film gonna end up buying this on blu-ray just to enjoy the hell out of it to myself and just show people how crazy this movie was oh my guys did you guys get to check out this film I want to hear you guys thoughts down below again I'm really curious to see the score on this I only talked to a couple other critics that saw the film and really they either didn't like it or kind of got the same feeling that I got from it I don't know how the audience is gonna react to it that they might love this I have no idea this is a bonkers film but guys if you guys are even a fan of this film or even a fan of experiments up go check out everything else that Steven Knight has done he's a great director and writer and I can't wait to see what the guy does
