- Oʂɯαʅԃσ RσყҽƚƚDecember 25, 2025Beau is Afraid demands us to see it again. It basically screams to be rewatched, paused, rewound, dissected, and examined. The brilliance of writer and director Ari Aster is that these repeat viewings will never ever help you get this movie. It's never going to click and magically make sense - going back to the well will only deepen your appreciation for the craft of the film.
- Autumn-Brooke ThompsonNovember 20, 2025Keeps you entertained and motivated to keep on the journey of whatever you decide at the moment is going on with this movie. Right away takes you in and you must watch all the way threw because you are unraveling the story as you watch and then are lost again then realizes things then are lost again then mind blown then confused or unsure what’s true or real then boom magic. Definitely interesting.
