Watched The Second Woman. Thrilling movie with magnetic acting for the first 3/4 suddenly spoiled by an abrupt pacing change and characters that make no sense in the final 10 minutes. Really cool set up that even has a sensical twist but just has no humanity left in the final scenes.
local movie critic philbert dy posted IG stories about this AI slop movie. here's the summary of his experience:
- he chanced upon the "red carpet premiere" last night
- cast members talked about "revolutionary" AI enhancements
- movie was supposed to be 2.5 hours long
- they showed the trailer (linked below) three times
- turns out they didn't have a local permit to screen it
- there was NO ACTUAL SCREENING HAHAHAHAHA
Somehow this worked and I loved it.
