#3I feel like this review needs a huge amount of context on PTA and his previous films to create any sort of justification for this film. That... that does not seem like a good movie to me.

Yep really sincere reviews use the word jungle pussy. The right wingers are just grabbing them all the time.

I'll sit out the right|left and racial aspects here and just note that in this film
* Leonardo DiCaprio plays a character named Bob, and
* Shayna McHayle plays a character named Junglepussy

It'd be a poor review that glossed over a films choice and representations of characters, this one's on the director and writer, not the reviewer.

You're talking about one of the best-reviewed movies in years. https://www.criterion.com/current/posts/8936-one-rave-after-...

I think you’re mistaking the review for the movie. The review is written for people with that deep context and with an interest in peeling back all the layers PTA put in his movie. The movie itself works well as an action movie, and works very well as a meditation on the way parents burden their kids, and so on.

To be fair, that’s McHayle’s stage name too.
Regardless, I think it’s a fair observation that French 75 is cartoonish at times. This is not a movie about how great revolutionaries are, although it is a movie about how necessary they are. PTA also certainly makes some odd choices around minority characters.
