My official #clayface review (spoilers)

i thoroughly enjoyed this movie and tom rhys harries as matt hagen is the highlight of the film. you can absolutely see why james gunn and matt reeves picked him out of auditions, because through the tragedy, the body horror, the moments ce, you believe his portrayal of matt hagen in all of these moments. his chemistry with naomi ackie is really great as she is also a solid part of the movie. admittedly, besides those two performances there is no other standouts in the movie in the supporting cast though.
the body horror and practical effects are so well done. though i wanted to turn from the screen at times (body horror is my least favorite kind of horror) i was glued to the screen because i wanted to witness some of the practical aspects in action.
the first act of the movie is rushed, and i wish there was more fleshed out in terms of hagen’s backstory because it felt like the movie just wanted to get to his transformation. once the movie gets past this it does start flowing.
the antagonist is weak and not because it’s not a recognizable name like the falcone or the maronis. i just wasn’t moved by the character or the performance at all so it lands as just fine. i believe there was way more potential there to develop a compelling villain.
the quieter moments with matt and caitlyn are some of my favorite parts of the movie albeit less flashy. it makes the fact he goes past that point of no return later in the movie more tragic.
the club scene really is all that, im really looking forward to rewatching this bit and i found the end of the movie where now caitlyn has to look out for him at all times knowing he could be anyone a fitting end for the movie. clayface playing out a scene that will never happen in reality because of his own actions was poetic.
no mention of batman doesn’t bother me. while a silhouette could’ve been cool i wouldn’t have wanted anything that took away from this story being told so if it ended up not making sense, well that’s just fine with me.
i really enjoyed this movie and i hope we get more villain adaptations in the future #clayface

ABSOLUTE CLAY HAS BEEN ACHIEVED

Clayface and Superman have the same letterboxd score now 🫪

hit my first 100k engaged views on a youtube video. i hope i can do that more this year

Wildwood is brutal and treats the audience with full respect. Might be some of my favorite deaths in cinema purely because none of them are fluffed up as glorious or heroic. When people die, that's it. It's sudden and discomforting which the movie captures perfectly.

I'm grateful Laika is run by the son of a billionare that doesn't care how much money he loses in the course of making straight artistic fire.

i firmly believe coddling kids is why so many of us in gen z feel so unprepared for the world. not only is the world itself worse than the one our parents got to grow into, but we aren’t prepared to experience any of it

travis is right on here

Travis Knight says that ‘WILDWOOD’ had to be PG-13 due to the tragic acts of violence seen in the film.

“Modern cinema generally tends to talk down to young audiences. But young people experience loss. They know what it’s like to feel afraid.”

Wild wood did the impossible. It made me actually like and care for Aquafina’s character and I’m not even joking

I love the cinema. I love film scores. I love popcorn. I love Letterboxd. Dude I love movies.

It’s so cool that James Gunn put Clayface in ‘Creature Commandos’ to establish him in the DCU before his movie
