- Juan SandovalFebruary 6, 2025Cate Blanchett always acts her ass off and TAR is no different. Even when the film got a bit boring and felt it wasn’t going anywhere, Blanchett was always electrifying. The film actually gets more interesting as it goes along. The last 40 mins or so get really crazy.
- neuroparadox7d agoThe poster for this movie should just be Cate Blanchett slam-dunking an Oscar.
- Kevin WardJuly 1, 2025Cate Blanchett is incredible. Period. Full stop. Really loved this. Initially this felt like an examination of so many things: cancel culture, the corruptive nature of power, hierarchy and privilege….and much, much more. Yet, in the end I had the feeling that these topics aren’t really argued to conclusion, rather they’re presented here, like a prompt to a 10 page essay. And we, the audience, are intended to scrawl out some truths from this nuanced case study of Lydia Tár. There is so much in here that begs for conversation after the credits roll that this one will surely be sticking with me for a while. And seriously, Cate Blanchett is absolutely incredible from the opening moments to the final scene…..and every frame in between. Plus, there are many little details to be picked up on when watching it a second time. Masterful filmmaking and stunning performance from Cate.
