Can someone explain to me why this film is regarded as "good"? It has over 90% on RT.
This film was garbage. It was mangled, directionless footage that was frankenstein'd together by an editor into a somewhat coherent shit show.
The only reason people like it is because it has a retarded person in it, and Robert Pattinson is a somewhat ok actor in it, but hailed as "great" because his previous work has been so shit.
I thought it was ok by it was such blatant rip off of Pusher in the sense that it was a tense ride that didn't slow down like said. See the Pusher trilogy instead of this but if you've already seen those, see this and judge it for yourself. I enjoyed it for what it was.
I'd rather watch a Schumacher film than this bullshit. It loses it's edge after 20 minutes, then you're just suffering through it.
The directing is HORRENDOUS, and the cinematography is non-existent.
>hurrr durr let's just do ultra close ups to cut costs and look "indie", everyone will think we're artists!
There are literally no establishing shots in this film. Ever open is an ultra close up on someone's face. They are FORCING you to feel something, not invoking emotion, like what good films do. This film uses every low-skill trick in the book to try and pass itself off as something other than pretentious meaningless garbage.
Looked like Ross Ulbricht in the pic. Made me thing they made a film on the world biggest retard and got me excited.
Brayden Torres
I haven't seen "pusher" or whatever else people are comparing it to, so I just judged it on its own merits. The camerawork was garbage, but I really enjoyed watching this
David Hill
lol faggot.
Dylan Bennett
I think it's the closest I've seen to a true mumble-core action flick. Ultra-real action. If that's not your thing I could see how it would seem boring as hell. In reality most criminals are witty masterminds that spout clever quips, they're just messed up people that get dangerous when they're cornered.
Dylan Ortiz
Amerimutt pusher ripoff. It's garbage.
Caleb Jenkins
Nice bait
Noah Morgan
Good Time and Victoria are both certified wild night ride kino any others like it? I can only think of After Hours but that one's more like a kafkaesque comedy of sorts, doesn't quite fit with the whole 'lose control of every part of your life in a single waking night' concept
David Torres
The focus is so bad in certain parts that my eyes begin to hurt.
This is a "feature film" with a budget made by working adult filmmakers. I expect some degree of competency. Does focus pulling have to be perfect 100% of the time? But let's try to stay in focus for at least 70% of the movie, holy fucking shit.
This scene was pleb tier. It was totally pretentious. It sounds like nothing more than a massive exposition dump. MANY people despised this film. Just go read the reviews on Amazon. There are a vast number of horrible reviews. American Honey gives a far more honest portrayal of the American lower class.

this pajeet bot again ? are you paid by marvel to promote shit taste what is your career plan ?
Jace Hughes
Amen brotha, everyone is afraid to talk like this. It' WAS a massive exposition dump that is only meant to set up the LSD drink. Unfortunately, we are of the minority that didn't like this movie too much.
Camden Lee
Idk man, I liked it. I knew I was in love with this movie as soon as I saw the Pepe
Anthony Ross
Its a piece of shit
Christian Gonzalez
amen brotha PREACH!
Parker Robinson

Oliver Peterson
It's solid, everyone does a good job I guess, but it's about 100 minutes of Robert Pattinson being a piece of shit without much payoff.
I would respond but your second paragraph reads like you didn’t even watch the movie. It’s got its own style, and none of what you said is real criticism of that style
Christopher Murphy
HAHAHAHAHAHA you’re so cinematically illiterate that you think a film NEEDS establishing shots. Appreciate a different take on cinematography for once. The film is objectively good and Pattinson is phenomenal in it. And close ups no longer serve to force emotion, it’s become a new cinematic langue, a new mode of communication that disorients and keeps you close to the action. Brainlet
Colton Phillips
But I bet you think Shape of Water and Annihilation have good camerawork huh? It’s a depressing thing when the Safdie brothers are too experimental for you
That’s your opinion, and one that reveals how narrow minded you are about cinema. As the critics have said, the execution of claustrophobia is fantastic here. Imagining boring ass establishing shots in this film makes me sick
Lincoln Miller
that works as a perfect complement to the plot. it's a claustrophobic situation.
Austin Morales
It's decent. A fun ride for one viewing but nothing more.
I was baffled by the comparisons to Scorsese. His films are a lot more interested in exploring characters and themes than Good Time was.
Nathaniel Taylor
idk how I feel about this
James Harris
This was obviously intentional on the directors part
Dylan Reyes
they did it in their previous movie, too
Ryan Wood
Movies as kino as Good Time seem to disorient brainlets so they choose to reject it because they don't understand it.
>Robert Pattinson is a somewhat ok actor in it, but hailed as "great" because his previous work has been so shit. >what is The Rover?
Hunter Martin
Because every nu film critic needs to be part of the special ingroup who "get it." The feeling of superiority they get from watching a "deep, serious" film is more important than the face value of the film itself.
These are the people who decide what movies you watch.
Dominic Sullivan
>mmmm grayyons
Brandon Wilson
None of what you just said applies to Good Time at all, you absolute fucking tard

I've never seen the movie, but I have the Ohneotrix point never soundtrack in my library and I've probably listened to it about 20 times.
Kayden Stewart
>click on thread >prepared to respond to OP >OP has shit taste in kino
Directed by two perverted kike brothers who wanted to make him jerk off a dof, he refused but they made him do it to a fake dick.And then the scene was cut off from the movie. These degenerate kikes control Hollywood, of course this trash will get prizes and lots of publicity.
Jayden Cook
fucking hot.
Angel Baker
Things I liked about it: -Visuals -OST -Pattinson It wasn't great, but very entertaining to watch and that's about it.
that scene of the retard brother running through the glass was the greatest moment in the movie
Tyler Moore
Top lel imagine actually not being able to enjoy this movie, probably one of the most influential movies of the year And then coming here saying people who did are just faking it Top lel
The most striking rendition of a feverish, hyper-real, long pulsing night and they say it's too claustrophobic
Samuel Jenkins
Because jews are 2% of the US population but 90% of the film critics.
Christian Diaz
>The most striking rendition of a feverish, hyper-real, long pulsing night and they say it's too claustrophobic fuck off you're no better than the reviewers who are describing it as a NEON FLUX UBER MASTERPIECE OF MASTERCLASS FILM MAKING the film is shit and literally ends as soon as it starts picking up.
Robert Richardson
Brainlet as fuck.
Julian Foster
>hasn't seen Refns best movie >likes trash like Good Time the absolute state of Sup Forums
@96957726 I am literally laughing out loud at your posts, you are making me lose my sides Please keep trying to convince us you're not a stupid shit, please do
you seem to think there's a sacred rule book to creating film. pro-tip: there isn't. go watch some christopher nolan or scorsese for some formulaic garbage you're used to.
Carter Nguyen
have i become an old bastard stuck in the past? this looks horrid and even fucking 16mm would look far better.
Jaxon Peterson
It felt derivative to me, like the directors we're trying to imitate some classic from the 70s or 80s.
Jose Parker
Unrionically ITT: movies only Sup Forums users from Queens can understand.
Jacob Bailey
il reply to you mate, because you are very correct!
Chase Smith
BECAUSE THE TITLE SAYS IT IS GOOD YOU IMBECILE
Colton Richardson
Best part of the movie is when hospitalized guy jumps out of the car like a complete retard because he'd rather do THAT than go to jail, it's funny as shit. Then he falls off the building trying to escape the cops...did he think he was going to get away and not be arrested slowly crawling down a fucking building?
Logan Evans
It's boring.
Asher Jackson
Better than whatever shit from 2017 you thought was great
The beginning and end made me very emotional. Other than that, there’s no much else that sticks out to be about the film.
Aaron Morales
Well, if the director is reading this, you did a very good job playing a retard, because you are one in real life for making this shit movie and thinking it's actually good enough to rape our free time with.
Jack Scott
Are black girls really that loose? She was underage too.
