As dumb as the junk science of Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice gets, having these ridiculously likable actors steering the ship genuinely helps get you through the silliness.

There’s a certain brazen quality to the whole affair that I appreciated to a degree, but enthusiasm and good intention don’t always result in an exceptional piece of filmmaking.

This one is a bit of a step down for Ducournau, but it’s still perfectly acted, with a few visual stabs that got a gasp or two out of me.

Marc by Sofia

Steven Prokopy

I think the problem goes back to Coppola being too close to her subject. She clearly sees something in him all the time, so she doesn’t bother to dig too deep so that the rest of us can share in this knowledge.

Because of the ridiculous amounts of blood in Ready or Not 2, it technically qualifies as a horror movie, I guess, but there isn’t an iota of anything scary...
