Phantom Thread Ratings & Reviews
- Nick AdamsOctober 14, 2025That buttered toast scene lives rent-free in my nervous system.
- hairydemonOctober 11, 2025God, that was so boring, it made drying paint look like a Micheal Bay film. I never stayed to find out if the pait dried though. Too much to do in life.
- SpanktacularAugust 7, 2025Tremendous acting and poetic writing, but a little too slow-burn period-piece for me. Not a critique, just a preference.
- ebd321May 3, 2025I have loved so many of PT Anderson's films, but this one was not for me. This film would serve well as a healthier substitute for sleeping pills. This was one of the least enjoyable movie watching experiences I can remember.
