Metropolitan (1989)
6/10
Charming pseudo Garbage

I mean it isn't totally rubbish, is quite challenging as the acting outside the rat pack is atrocious. Surely has some dimensional ideas about it but I couldn't find them interesting nor reliable. If something I felt all the characters flat except from Tom. Intended that way, I get it. Wasn't the idea to picture of this upper class obnoxious kids separated from reality appealing manners to treat matters of life in a trivial way? Summoning meaning into ideals, philosophy and sociology playing a part in everything they do. There's no urgency, there's isn't any immediate goal. All is left to wonder. That's what I found obnoxious, the distance between reality and fairy tale. Some pieces where pretentious and nonsensical, others monotheistic and repetitive. Still I did finish the movie, some of the characters talk to me personally and others didn't. I guess

If u are a traditional movie goer or a turist u won't be able to enjoy this type of story telling. What I mean is for the average Netflix minion this would be missing the typical box ticking architecture. Expand the limits off what you consider storytelling and u might enjoy this one.
