If You Should Leave Before Me

2025

★★★★½ Liked Watched

probably the most ambitious and original movie of the year. in of visuals, tone, & style, it goes from barbie, the grand budapest hotel, se7en, everything everywhere all at once, to wander darkly. amazing performances. it does falter a bit in of the pacing. but, overall, it's moving enough to ignore its flaws.

it's kinda doing a reverse-barry, where improv comedians infiltrate a crime ring & keep going deeper & deeper into the mess. not really reinventing the wheel with the twists & turns; most of it is pretty predictable. i think it takes way too much time to actually throw the trio off the deep end. the performances are top notch, especially orlando bloom, which is what keeps things really engaging. there's a police chase that reminded me of hot fuzz. also sonoya mizuno is so hot!
