I like Jon Hamm. The plot about rich misery (eat the rich, but in a cannibalistic kind of way, I guess) is interesting.

The subplots too. It has nice editing, somehow reminds me of Fight Club. But we're not supposed to talk about Fight Club.

Anyway, as I was saying, I like Jon Hamm, but I like his character's sister a lot more. She should definitely be the focus of season 2, as the season seems to work as a limited one.

The soundtrack is awesome!

And I like Coop's son. But I must say, I've watched it, but not with full attention. For me, it works like white noise in the background.

There's a lot of ways to watch a show nowadays, and YFAN is on that list.

It's not that it's not capable of evoking feelings towards rich people; it does...

But sometimes it takes itself too seriously, maybe because it's a 7/10 rated show.

I liked this movie a lot.

It resembles the work of Alex Garland, and the premise is pretty much a possible scenario in the not-so-distant future.

But is it worth watching? Well, it depends.

It has a good story, talented actors, and beautiful photography, as well as great design.

Buuuut without any spoilers there's not much explanation of the time they live in.

The starting point was already built off-screen, so to say.

Anyway, its focus is on the dynamics between the trio, and it's more of a psychological/existential thriller.

Though maybe the third act makes the movie too long, I would have liked it to ended earlier, but my criteria are to like cliffhangers and open ends... Not a popular parameter

I recommend it!

First of all, I'm not a Kleber Mendonça Filho hater. I've watched his movies and even liked some of them like Aquarius and Bacurau. But boy is he overrated!

I have a theory: if you show someone one of his movies without telling them it's by him, they'll just think it's OK.

Here we see a guy talking about his life through photographs, edits, and a voiceover. He talks about Recife, his house and how things change. As another critic already pointed out here: Woah. Things change. Of course they do! But it's presented as some big artsy perspective.

Sure, he likes to criticize gentrification and real estate speculation but let's look at two follow-up scenes in the documentary about this:

First, the dog. Poor dog. "Oh, I recorded the sound of Nico for years. He was alone on weekends, that's why he was so loud." He was a dog! Of course he was going to bark and howl. Then he said, "I talked to the neighbors"-- and ok maybe my expectations were too high but I thought he was going to say something like "...and I offered to walk and play with the dog while they were out." Instead, I got this: "And they said every time it was a good sign -- it meant there weren't any robbers around while he was barking."

Then, the cats. Kleber says, "Oh, I like dogs and cats, but the cats p... me off." It looks like a cat colony. Of course feral cats will fight. But you're a rich director living next door -- what do you do to help the stray cats?

Nothing.

He put up wires and fences. And then he says he felt like he was in prison. Come on, man. What about animal rights?

There's even a sad scene of a cat walking through the wire.

Sorry to say, but if you don't link stray cats with poor animal policies, then you're part of the problem.

Anyway, rich people's perspective-spare your time.
