Alex Garland's ‘Warfare' Could Be A24's Most Expensive Movie — World of Reel
Much has been made about Alex Garland’s “Civil War” being the most expensive movie in A24 history, its production was said to have cost around $50 million. However, Jeff Sneider is hearing that Garland’s next film, “Warfare”, which he’s co-directing with Ray Mendoza, might be even more expensive. My best guess is its budget might hit the $60-70 million range.
Production on “Warfare” is supposed to begin in May. We don’t know much about the plot except that it is set in 2007 during the Iraq war. The cast includes Charles Melton, Joseph Quinn, D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Will Poulter, Kit Connor, Cosmo Jarvis, Michael Gandolfini, Taylor John Smith, Finn Bennett, Henrique Zaga and Adain Bradley.
Sneider adds that most if not all of these actors are currently undergoing military training at a Navy SEAL-like boot camp in England. They are striving for authenticity with this one and that’s always a good sign.
Garland’s co-director, Mendoza, is a war expert having collaborated with the History Channel as a producer on the documentary series “The Warfighters.” His IMDb doesn’t show any directing credits to his name, so this film with Garland will be his feature filmmaking debut.

The Many Saints of Newark - Ending and Credits
Micheal Gandolfini still winning the award for “best performance in a rather average HBO film.”
You never really doubt this is Tony Soprano you are looking at.
A very pleasant performance. He looks exactly like him.
The eyes.

THE MANY SAINTS OF NEWARK (2021) Grade: C-
Could've been much improved. Great acting and DP work even. Something about the script or possibly the editing made it feel scrambled. Better ending as well would've helped. Would had been a much better series. Too many characters shoved into one movie.

Beau Is Afraid
Tumblr media
Summary: Beau Wassermann (Joaquin Phoenix) does everything he can to make his way to his mother's (Patti LuPone) funeral after her apparent death.
Aster’s Babylon in terms of scope, length, departure from previous style(s), and difficult commercial appeal. Nice break from fire, though.
Rating: 3.25/5

Landscape with Invisible Hand (2023) Review
Tumblr media
Well, that was weird.
Plot: When an occupying alien species' bureaucratic rule and advanced technology leave most of Earth impoverished and unemployed, two teenagers hatch a risky plan to ensure their families' futures.
Throughout the age of cinema, we have been given many interpretations of extra-terrestrial life forms, from the face-hugging buggers of the Alien franchise to the friendly finger-pointing ET who simply wants to go home, to the angry creepy brainiac Martians from Tim Burton's Mars Attacks!.... there have been many. However one has never seen an alien design as one in the new quirky sci-fi movie Landscape with Invisible Hand. There's nothing humanoid in these creatures, with the appearance of slimy loaves of bread with four paddle legs and two caterpillar eyes. Their language is communicated by rubbing and slapping their paddle flippers together, creating a sandpaper friction sound. It's a unique and different take on what we see as aliens and fair play to the designers for going so weird with it. In fact, the entire movie is nothing short of peculiar, from the premise to the execution, and even if the movie does struggle to get some of its ideas across, the ambition and unpredictability of it all result in a bold blend of sci-fi and social commentary.
Coming to us from director Cory Finley, who's previously helmed the Hitchockian-style indie black comedy Thoroughbreds and the public-school embezzlement scandal true story in Bad Education, so it wasn't too surprising to see him tackle yet another outrageous project, though not many would have thought he would have gone this bonkers. However, through all the weirdness he still manages to ground the narrative by delivering a fable on human behaviour, talking about relations, art, and the weakness of human nature.
Acting wise we see a career-best turn from Tiffany Haddish, who puts aside her usual screaming comical performance to instead showcase some of her more dramatic naturalistic chops, yet still having that sassy sarcastic demeanor to her. However, the lead kid played by Asante Blackk came off a bit flat. I get that he's supposed to be a moody kid who's stuck in poverty under the capitalist regime of the alien race, but his acting was so bland. The rest of the ensemble does well with what they have, but it's Haddish who comes out as the MVP. But I think overall because all the characters are so emotionally detached due to being stuck in their mundane lives, it's difficult to connect with any of them.
Despite its promise, the film often falls short of delivering a deep exploration of its themes. The portrayal of the Vuvv (the alien race) verges on becoming caricatures, and the film's tonal shifts disrupt the overall experience. However, it retains an odd charm and occasional moments of amusement, making it worth a watch for those open to its quirky journey. And there are brilliant moments of satire that expose the flaws and failures of capitalism in a dystopian setting. The film shows how the Vuvv exploit the human population for their own benefit while offering them false promises and cheap entertainment. Which is oddly and scarily similar to real life. Only real-life politicians don't look like slimy bread. Well, most of them don't at least.
Overall score: 6/10
