Angry Joe: glass is half full
Other Joe: glass is half empty
Alex: f*ck the glass
More like: there is no f***** glass!
Yup!
My stance has always been that it depends on if you're trying to fill or empty the glass... I mean, if you're trying to empty the glass, it still being half full could be bad, but in that case it'd be good if it was half empty... Unless you mostly enjoy the process of filling or emptying the glass, in which case it doesn't matter how full it is, just that you can still fill or empty it...
... I tend to overthink things >_>;;
Lol
More like: *throws the glass onto the floor*
Twas a light night in Soho indeed
@ 21:21, The reason why she starts seeing the punters outside of the bedroom, all over London, is because of what Ms. Collins says. She asks her if a woman had ever died in that room and she says, "This is London. Someone has died in every room in every building and on every street corner in the city." And from then on out, she starts seeing them everywhere.
Not quite. Sheâs always had the gift, but that was within her own home and environment.
It wasnât until she has convinced herself sheâs cured and moves out on her own that sheâs completely overwhelmed by her âgiftâ.
Not so much what Ms Collins mentions in my opinion.
@@tnargtnarud It was exactly what I understood. she always had the spiritual GIFT. That's why her hand couldn't take it and committed suicide. Grandmother sure as hell had too, since she WAS QUIETLY asking IF SHE STILL SEE HER MOTHER. It was hereditary. The ghosts connected to her differently because of this gift.
During the end credits shots of a deserted, empty, central London flash on screen. All of these shots were completed during the COVID-19 global pandemic. The desertedness of the streets is real as England at the time was in a national lockdown.
Final performance of Diana Rigg, who passed away on September 10, 2020. The film is dedicated in her memory.
Thomasin McKenzie dropped out of Top Gun: Maverick (2022) to star in this movie.
To achieve the shots of the students walking down the night-time Soho streets, the crew hid a Steadicam within a Bicycle Rickshaw taxi, commonly seen around the Soho area. The road was not closed off and the 'Extras' in the shot were unaware they were in a movie.
The title comes from a song by pop band Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich, "Last Night In Soho" released in 1968. This is the song that is played during the end credits.
This movie was inspired by Don't Look Now (1973) and Repulsion (1965).
The drink ordered by Sandie early on in the film is a vesper created by Ian Fleming in the 1953 James Bond novel Casino Royale.
Author Stephen King had the opportunity to see this movie at an advanced screening, and he was so impressed by what he saw, he tweeted "I hardly ever re-watch - there's so many good things out there - but this one is special."
Diana Rigg, Terence Stamp, Rita Tushingham and Margaret Nolan were all big names in British film, TV and theatre in the 1960s, when a great deal of the story in this movie takes place.
The first Edgar Wright film to have a female protagonist.
This is one of two Anya Taylor-Joy films delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the other movie was The New Mutants (2020).
Both Thomasin McKenzie and Anya Taylor-Joy have previously worked with director M. Night Shyamalan; the former in Old (2021) and the latter in both Split (2016) and Glass (2019).
Foreshadowing: When looking for Sandy's missing persons case in the library, Eloise is passing by lots of missing persons cases regarding men. These men are later found out to be Sandie's victims.
At the Halloween party Ellie and John attend, Ellie's former roommate Jocasta and her girl friends are dressed as the main characters in the 1996 witch movie The Craft (1996). Fittingly, Jocasta is dressed as Nancy, the film's villain.
Foreshadowing: The landlady, later found out to be a serial killer states to Eloise, regarding the bathroom, that she will need to keep the plugs in during summer as the smells will rise, refering to the drains. This is more likely refering to the countless bodies of men hidden within the walls and floorboards.
This is one of two Matt Smith films delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the other movie was Morbius (2022).
Stars Matt Smith and Diana Rigg both appeared alongside each other in a 2013 episode of Doctor Who.
Edgar Wright mentioned in an Instagram comment that the Director of Photography Chung-hoon Chung also shot The Handmaiden (2016) for Korean director Park Chan-Wook.
According to Edgar Wright, after George Miller saw an early cut of the film, he was so impressed by Anya Taylor-Joy's performance that he met her immediately. He then offered her the leading role for his next film, Furiosa (2024).
@ 24:19, She doesn't murder him. He walks out in the street, stops to turn around and talk to her, and gets hit by a car. The exact same way she almost got hit by a car earlier in the film. No one was pushed or intensionally killed. Even the driver says, "He just stopped in the middle of the street!"
Because she was yelling at him about murdering people. He would have been chilin in the bar if she hadn't
@@ajm3975 so what? What if someone was crossing the street and I said âhey you dropped your walletâ.
Then they stop and get hit by a car, did I âmurder himâ?
@@aarongutierrez7705 Well you'd be the one who caused him to pick up his wallet, which then resulted in him getting hit by a car and dying, so I'd say partly. They're obviously not saying she literally murdered him, but she did unintentionally cause his death.
@@BigballsTerrence ye but that wouldnât even be manslaughter. I would definitely feel guilty, but in court there is 0 chance Iâm responsible for the death, you know what I mean?
For the sake of that ending, I'm gonna assume the detective survived because that guilt would live with her forever if he did die.
@ 27:27, They show a quick scene where she throws up all the tea. Implying that most of poison was out of her system.
She throws up crawling up the stairs . What about when she hops up from the chair like nothing happened in order to save John ??
Honestly I don't watch most of the movies y'all review I just enjoy listening to your discussion
You should
RightâŠ
@@realSandrow Not "most", but a few. I watch reviews like this from start to finish because I had absolutely no intention of seeing the movie
It takes a solid 8 around the table for men to consider watching them otherwise I like the discussion part
@@knowpainnow ye I just enjoy their opinions
I enjoyed this movie for how it talks about the dark realities of thinking just because you are passionate and skilled that if you move to a big city that you will be successful. I know so many personally that thought if they run off to Hollywood, LA, SF, LV, NYC, London, Paris that they will become big and famous only to find out that it didn't matter how good they were, if they weren't willing to sell a piece of themselves, their integrity, they didn't find success and instead would get denied even blacklisted from studios and other companies. Instead of just accepting it, they kept going bleeding away money and their life and live in run down apartments trying to make ends meet and sadly get into drugs, alcohol, partying and other activities to drown their problems away... just like everyone else living there until the money runs out and they have to move back to the midwest and give up on their dreams and barely even in their 30s and 40s. The harsh reality to be successful in life is to not be blinded by your dreams to see the inevitable and learn to let things go. They came for fame, and left in shame.
I like the plot twist that gave me Edgar Allen Poe vibes. I wonder if being next to a Bistro helped hide the secret.
I agree and don't like the ending scene for that reason, just seems a bit too idealistic considering how the movie was.
@@gethprime6549 Yeah, the whole thing became way too Hollywood and formulaic.
Correction: she didnât murder the detective. He stood in the street
Because of her yelling at him accusing him of MURDERING people. It was her fault. I loved the movie but the "good" characters ended up being terrible people. Only good one was the boyfriend
@@ajm3975 stop replying on every fucking comment, he chose to walk out into the street, he wasnât pushed, he wasnât forced so he did it on his own accord
@@ajm3975 thatâs not how murder works
@@ajm3975 Still not murder. He wasnât startled, he chose to stop in the middle of the street and talk back. He couldâve gone back to her or on the other side at any time. She was a factor, but thatâs not murder in any sense of the word.
@@ajm3975 He doesn't have to reply while on the fucking road lmao he could have easily crossed and let his frustration out once he crossed.
I haven't watched this video yet, but I'm going to guess that Alex didn't like it.
đđđ
Well he only likes Marvel movies
He said heâd give it a 7
lol. He doesn't like alot of things
This movie made me realize that âGot My Mind Set On Youâ by George Harrison and âAlways Something There to Remind Meâ by Naked Eyes are covers.
Wait until you find out Tainted Love is a cover.
James Ray disapproves of this comment
Yall white folk especially British white folk be doing that
You're definitely younger than 30 then. lol
Third act of soho was SIGNIFICANTLY better than that of antlers. Yâall trippin
I enjoyed every part of the movie I donât understand why people donât like it
Can we not appreciate both movies? I will say the twist in soho was really unexpected
@@sharpshoota8274 I want to say I did like both. The third act of antlers was def weak though
@@Splenetic- Yeah it just felt a little bland. And the final shot of the movie didnât hit as hard as they wanted it too. Overall I still think it was an above average feature creature horror. It had some good scenes.
@@sharpshoota8274 good scenes for sure, wanted to love it. I find antlers to be a 6/6.5 while soho was more of an 8. That antlers ending was just rushed I find it hard to believe woman survived casually vs. the wendigo. Itâs pretty lame to set up the thing as a swift killer only watch her essentially walk circles around it in the end đ€Ł
Joe sometimes the faces you make in the thumbnails absolutely terrify me whenever I scroll at night but I always enjoy the movie reviews you guys make
I adored this movie. The acting, the cinematography, the music, the lighting effects from the bistro lingering in her room (Red to signify when murderous visions happen, blue to signify when she's not currently getting haunted). I loved everything about this movie. Edgar Wright, take a bow!
I do have to disagree to a point though. The absolute ending with her at the fashion show IS the payoff because:
1. She managed to finally sell her 60's fashion vision
2. She manages to give a "fuck you" to those girls bullying her
3. She also manages to make her mother proud.
4. She also chooses to lowkey embrace Sandy's personality and get past her confidence issues
Also Joe, the title needs fixing. It's "Last night in soho" , not "Light night in soho".
But isn't she the murderer? Who cares if she accomplished something as petty as selling her clothes?
She doesn't murder anybody. The cop walked out into the road himself. She was simply a bystander
I assumed the end was a dream and was supposed to symbolize her "old self dying" as did with Sandy and her past self as shown by the mirror touch at the end. Since I don't think people would just let fly her trying to stab the girl with scissors and burning down the old lady's place. That was just my interpretation though
@@Isaac1995 she attempted murder, but let's just conveniently ignore that. Anyone else would be locked up in a mental asylum after trying to murder someone in public with lots of witnesses. Since you're so impressed with color grading gimmicks, you must adore masterpieces like Wish Upon.
@@dereksbooks she âattempted murderâ because she didnât even realize it was her classmate she was trying to stab. Even if she had succeeded, she wouldnât go to prison for it, since you can get out of a prison sentence if the cause of the murder was mental problems - she would just be required by the government to get proper treatment for her issues.
The twist to this movie reminded me of the twist of Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island. If youâve seen both you know what I mean.
wait......HOLY SHIT. YOU RIGHT
wut . . . cats? I haven't seen the movie yet.
Fucking get these spoilers out of here
@@mikebarnes7441 if you haven't seen it you would literally have no idea what this comment is talking about
The best scooby-doo movie in my opinion. Always loved watching it on cartoonnetwork.
You basically bought a beta test. I will admit the gameplay is fun.
Ffs, just realised what that's off đ
26:40
Eh... And? So, what is wrong with the message "a victim can become a monster herself/himself"?
Yes. She/he can.
And no, being a victim in the past is not an excuse for a person to become a monster.
Yeah, itâs a reason, but not an excuse. Itâs why Ellie is our heroine, who is goaded into killing Sandie by the ghosts but doesnât.
The movie and advertising heavily reminds me of "Bad times at the El Royale" movie.
Awesome movie đ
Well that movie was heavily mis-marketed, I think this movie was marketed accurately but it just didnât give much away. But that is a great movie.
I loved it. While the end was a mess, I thought it was the most fun part of the movie. Ellie backing up the stairs with the time periods switching, was absolutely gorgeous.
So you liked the mess? Interesting
@@sharpshoota8274 yes very 70s Giallo/Argento by the very end. That insane trippy time traveling slasher scene at the end gave me a huge grin on my face.
@@TheBman1023 but why a mess? I thought it was executed very well and totally caught me by surprise (the twist)
@@sharpshoota8274 thanks for asking! I feel like I want to get it off my chest but no one else has seen it. Itâs a mess because of two reasons, the logic, and the themes.
1. (Logic) Why Physically show the man kill Anya Taylor joy, and show her with the knife wounds, When that is not what happened ( a huge slap in the face of the audience). And 2. The theme of the sexual abuse, and overall manipulation of vulnerable people is totally and completely crushed by somehow making Anya the bad guy and the âjohnsâ the victims. Itâs like peices of a puzzle that donât fit together at all. So the two girls form a bond and now all od a sudden Anya is going to kill her in classic over the top slasher movie twist fashion. (Which I did think was a blast).
But they could have shown a more natural path to Anyas character deciding to kill Ellie. They spent too much time in the middle (no clues or character changes for Anya ) and then BAM! Everyoneâs motives change.
@@TheBman1023 I definitely can agree with the fact that they showed Sandie getting killed but⊠she didnât? Lol. And I feel like they were making Sandie more of an anti-hero rather than the âbad guyâ
Overall I think the movie as a film was incredible. Cinematography, music, editing, acting and I thought the plot was good in terms of being unique and something different. I also liked the way they did the dream sequences with Ellie watching Sandie. The actress for Ellie was also exceptional and I hope to see her in more movies. This one should definitely kickstart her acting career. Sheâs only 19 or so. But I can see why you werenât a fan of certain parts.
8/10 for me because all the other good stuff shine over the bad
I don't understand why John continued to be around Eloise so much, he was weird and she clearly appears to be totally insane.
That's the only thing I didn't understand. My only real grievance with the film. He implies that he believes in the supernatural but when Eloise almost stabs that girl in the library I couldn't suspend my disbelief with his blind love any longer
@@BazookaTooth707 if I were that guy, I would have left long before that, like around the time she essentially cries rape. Of course, we as the audience know that's not what happened, but to the guys point of view, she invited him into her apartment, engaged in sexual conduct, then freaked out like she was getting raped, with neighbors calling the police and stuff. That's when I would have gone, "this bitch is crazy" and never saw her again. Also, I legit thought the dude was gay up until he started banging her. Oops
@@captaincaptain2128 exactly, I almost forgot that part. Lmao. He literally cut his feet on glass and Eloise told him that Sandy would kill him if he came around again. So many red flags. He's the real victim lmao
@@BazookaTooth707 Honestly the only thing that makes sense is to chalk it up to another one of her powers. Essentially a love spell. The entire movie is her accidentally progressing all of her abilities. Sheâs incredibly naive but extremely powerful.
Acknowledge that in the end, sheâs so strong that she displayed âmediumshipâ with no practice. Ellie being in a stressful situation projected all of Sandieâs previous abusers and even allowed Jack to actually smack Sandie. Ellie is insaneâŠ
So with that, the boy being so infatuated and love blind doesnât seem so farfetched.
@@captaincaptain2128 lol why u thought he was gay đ
Having a victim become the villain is not only true to how some devastating events effect people but is ballsy and awesome for a movie. However it almost ruins itself by then having the main character say that guys who pay for sex deserve to be murdered. Coming from her that is just not right, From Sandies POV that makes sense but not the main girls or the audiences. The cool thing about this movie is despite how awful many of the people from the 60s era were, Sandie, one of many previous victims, ended up being the worst of them all.
*spoiler warning*: I'm guessing from this review the movie message was supposed to be more complex than man bad, women victims. From sounds of it the message was some men bad some men, perverted and this can harm women to the point they are driven to be bad too. The zombies I think symbolised men who hire prostitutes as being mindless zombies to their desires and oblivious to the harm those desires may cause.
Without seeing the movie this is all speculation and could be horrifically portrayed as a message but I can see how a director trying to do a more nuanced message where women are shown to be vulnerable to becoming evil too (if given the right circumstances) but in today's world we are so used to "man bad women innocent" that message could easily be lost on the Audience
Watch the movie I think it was amazing! I never got the idea that the movie was ever âwokeâ I donât understand the people that think that because there are bad shitty women in the movie like her bitch of a roommate and there are good guys not every man in the movie is bad
You said it so well man it's exactly this and not
MAN BAD WAMEN GOOD
it much more intelligent in its approach and also surprising at times
What you said is how it is, in fact the protagonist at the en literally says "I don't blame you", and the old lady sitting to die is not her "realizing she is a monster" it's her realizing it's over, her building is on fire, she is a broken person. I'm not those "YoU DOnT't gEt iT" guys, but it really amazes me how they just ran with that "message"
I am genuinely surprised that this movie went so far over Alexâs head the way it did. Heâs the same guy that found the story telling elements of âMother!â to be obvious but this movie completely lost him. Iâm shocked.
Thanks for the content Joe, OJ, and Alex!
@ 26:45, I thought it was super creative how they made it where she was actually killing Johns. Especially because it was happening during the exact times she was refusing to pay attention. Didn't you notice how uncomfortable she kept getting? Because of how prude she was, she kept turning away every time something sexual happens? Remember the scene where Sandie is dancing in her first show? Eloise gets so flustered she gets up and walks away? Her sexual puritanism kept her ignorant to her psychic abilities. She could astral project, had mediumship, psychometry, clairaudience, clairgustance, clairsentience, & clairvoyance. But not claircognizance, divination, or precognition. She was an amateur, she was untrained. She had these abilities, but no idea how to use them. Her grandmother even kept warning her that she wasn't ready for her gifts. Telling her how she never asks for help or "talks" to her, hinting that she has poor verbalization skills. Basically that she can't even interpret what she is seeing. Which is why you, as the audience, feel tricked. But really, it was all done on purpose.. The grandmother even foreshadows the punters or Johns that would eventually haunt her, by warning her how cruel London can be.
Oh wow never thought of it like that
@@nileshollowthorn But that does not make the reason for it any more acceptable. Edgar should have directed it more so like that, then it would have been tremendously better. I would be disagreeing with Alex and seeing it perfectly we'll as a great twist. It's the kind of twist Argento would do, not strictly Hitchcock. Maybe have her act very reluctantly to seeing the "murder" that she leaves the room before it really happens. They fools are also to tough on Antlers and I find we have to many retards putting to much stock in critic reviews instead of just going to the theater. Having some fun. đđđ
What the heck are you talking my dude... Those are lot of mumbo jumbo words
I don't think the vision that Ellie had is a real Sadie life, it is explain at the end of the movie that her vision is wrong. I believe that what Ellie experience is Sadie life from the Perspective of her victims, as we never see Sadie alone, she is always with someone else.
I think they dropped the ball with the ending too but as far as the villain goes; there are actual cases where the victims of horrible acts later become monsters themselves, the trauma messed them up mentally and they were never the same after the events and constantly feel the need to repeat the horrible acts that were done to them.
One of the best movies I've seen this year. Just brilliant.
Nice profile pic
@@andresrengifo9365 they're shit
I really enjoy it and it's not even my kind of film
@@ConnorMcCartney95 just like this movie.
@@dereksbooks no itâs not
Ah yes, "Light Night in Soho"
Good review, guys. The plot of this movie seems to borrow heavily from a book by Penelope Farmer entitled Charlotte Sometimes. Also, there is a typo in the title of this video; Edgar Wright's new film is called Last Night in Soho, not Light Night in Soho.
Looks like lack of good writing is the stigma of modern movies
another great video, been loving all these movies reviews on octuber.
Lol funny comment
I think you missed the entire point of the end. The point is that the evil of others can create another evil. I agree about the poison. Ellie didn't kill the old man. He walked out into the road and stopped.. I knew that he was the cop not jack as soon as that scene was showed the first time when he was younger talking to Alexandra aka sandy. This was a brilliant movie, technically I've never seen anything quite like it. Joe you're all sensitive about the want for your me too message. But that wasn't the point. Like I said it's about evil creating more evil. The drink was spiked, Ellie lied to the police so they wouldn't just say she hallucinated and it's all fake. This is my second favorite film this year next to the Protegé.
Well the problem I guess is this is a trop or something. Like with mental illness in horror but I donât see a problem with it. I agree with you about the point but modern feminism makes this kinda a bad ending because it turns a abused girl into a murderer but it is somewhat realistic
@@austinlarrimore6542 I'm a criminal justice major. In which you have to study criminal psychology, watch interviews of Jeffery Dahmer etc and give reports on what you see. In almost all cases a serial killer has a past of trauma that snaps their brain to do what they do. And the trauma may not be outwardly evident to others. The ending made perfect sense. And it was a true message. It doesn't excuse the evil of the perviness, entrapment and rapist acts of the ghost guys. But also, it doesn't excuse her acts of serial murder either. Not to say in my world view I don't have the death penalty for certain kinds of evil, such as serial rape etc. Or that I think they didn't deserve it. It brings up questions about our structure of law, punishment etc. And honestly I didn't see it coming even tho they left hints.. like when Alex asked Ellie "did he hurt you?", When she mentioned she's lucky she didn't kill her "little boyfriend" etc. Anyway, like I said I loved the film. Probably the best mystery thriller in years. I don't really call it horror.
@@dgdt8089 I agree with you just saying how they think due to identity politics and modern feminism
@@austinlarrimore6542 Yeah ik I was agreeing with you lol
I agree, this was one fantastic movie and was such a far more interesting premise compared to Antlers.
The soundtrack is solid. "Thunderball" premiered in 1965, so not quite Pre-Beatles.
It was like a mix of Twilight Zone & Hitchcock, with subject matter that resonates into today.
Light Night in Solo? Havenât seen that one yet
Thanks for telling us.
Honestly Alex just doesnât like movies Iâve realized this. Even really good movies heâs like well that was ok. Heâs one of those people that you could give everything to and still wouldnât be satisfied
What if movies just suck?
@@ahmedibnadam3434 yes every single movie just sucksâŠ.
@@volti2onxx lmfao I wouldnât want to hang out with that guy at a party sheesh lol
or just not the enthusiastic type.. he doesnt rate the movies lower than OJ in general.
They just gave reasons why they were disappointed are you people stupid or what
Interestingly the way y'all described it at very first made me think of Personal Shopper a way more unknown film. If y'all had said "fashion designer moves to France so she can follow the ghost of her dead brother half of the movie the rest is just melodrama" I would've laughed.
Loved this film...and Alex said those John's attack her in real life...they don't...its all in her head...she sees ghosts. đ
No, they do. What people are failing to understand about the film is that Ellie is a very gifted clairvoyant. Under intense stress at the end, she managed to display her âmediumshipâ power and allows the Jack character to not only be seen by Sandie but also actually get smacked. The entire movie is her accidentally progressing her gifts.
@@freshboyfab mmmmm....reallyđ€ I will hv to watch it again then...I must hv missed that bit . đ
Yeah check it out! Donât forget that at the Halloween party the director makes Jocasta and her friends Halloween costumes the girls from the movie âThe Craftâ. I think with a second viewing one can clearly tell that Eloise is an extremely power clairvoyant that letâs her powers get a bit unhinged.
@ 18:04, I dunno about that. I mean they show her reflection in the knife, and her covered in blood. And she did technically witness a murder, you can definitely tell that someone died. But don't forget, it was heavily implied that she was drugged at the costume party. And she did like, keep avoiding actually watching the murder. I think it was super creative how that scene was shot. Definitely not misleading or contradictory, and definitely was not insulting the audience's intelligence.
We dont see the knife going into her, but she goes still and looks dead
Actually, the big reveal at the end actually makes tons of sense if you paid attention to the details in the movie. I won't spoil anything for anybody, but just be vigilant when watching. It's clear all the subtle hints went right over these guys heads, because the reveal was awesome, and it was set up. I should know, I've seen the movie 3 times now, and my second and third viewing (knowing what would happen) I noticed all the now obvious hints at who and what everyone was. Love this movie, and Thomasin McKenzie is an adorable and beautiful woman. She's an incredibly talented actor, and I hope we see much more of her. This is my first film of hers, and I'm already a fan.
You think its worth watching? Cuz I was thinking of seeing it
@@jdog6914 yes, definitely.
Not much in common but does remind me of A Midnight In Paris for some reason.
Alex and oJ should get their own graphics for their ratings
Hey guys. You REALLY should do a top 10 movies of all time video. It would really set some context to your movie reviews that I think is needed to totally appreciate your ratings.
I don't think the main character felt like an outsider because she is a country girl. Instead, I would say she suffers from severe anxiety as she shows when she went through those episodes.
You think someone with anxiety that extreme would choose a livelihood where every single thing you do will be under constant and critical scrutiny?
AJ, did you know that children of abusive parents very often become abusive parents themselves?
Her drink was obviously spiked at the Halloween party
The title of the video 'Light Night in Soho' makes me want see THAT as a film.
I thought that although we see the events through Sandy's eyes, Ellie was transported to the 60s by the dead men as a way of getting revenge for her killing them. That's why they tell Ellie to kill Alexandria.
Movie mentioned at the end:
*_GONJIAM: HAUNTED ASYLUM_*
When I first saw the trailer I was kinda skeptical at first, but after watching the movie. It was quite surprising, so good job on the review as usual Joe
@Big Donkey eh itâs your opinion
@Big Donkey no, not really
Yâall should do a favorite movies off all time list
Light night?
The blue&red posters with Anya Taylor Joy, I thought it was Perfect Blue live XD
I've seen posters for this movie but did not expect it to be a horror movie...
Keep the spooky season alive and watch Titane.
I appreciate this film analysis. I enjoyed the movie on a surface level and kind of like a Giallo, but what you guys say in the spoilers are completely correct and I like that you guys made me think more deeply about the plot.
Remember when this was a video game centric channel?
remember when they used to make video games?
@@BGRANT777X Far Cry 6, B4B, Kenna Bridge of Sprite, Diablo 2, Guardians of the Galaxy, House of Ashes, Lost Judgment, life is strange, Tales of Arise, Fist. To name a few. Remember when people use to think?
â@@psilo3226 yes I meant actually zero games have been made because thats a normal statement and not a comment on the quality of games in relation to what an "angry review" tends to be. Yeah he did one for B4B but I feel like that was just made to do the play another zombie game joke.
LAST NIGHT IN SOHO
I like how they havenât fixed the typo yet lol
The film in a nutshell felt like an adult Doctor Who episode. With the good and the bad of what that brings.
In the UK "shit the bed" means you got up early.
Glad to hear some truth, other critics just won't say thumbs-down to this thing. I think it's because it's so well-done for the first 45 minutes. Then she meets the pimp and it flys right off the rails...great review.
It completely boggles my mind when hollywood spends millions on a movie and they do everything right but the end product sucks because their script sucks. There are so many great stories coming out every year. So many talented authors and you have to make movies based on third rate garbage scripts? Why? WHY?!
but this movie didnt suck, at all, just because the 3 stooges never pay attention , they miss things that make it make sense. This movie rocked!!
The first scene with the roommates made me seize up and cry because it was almost like the film was mirroring my first day at uni dorms. Good stuff- they really did good with the young adult/teens right in this. (I'm 18 and in my first year of uni in the uk)
Me and my crush where looking at trailers to go see a movie. We randomly stumbled upon this one. We really couldn't figure the trailer out but saw Edgar Wright made it. She really loves baby driver and Shaun of the dead is my favorite so we where like, yea lets Just go see this one and just go in with not to many expectations. It turned out to be the best movie we have seen this year. We both fucking loved Last night in Soho.
The ending, Altough visually beautiful, the twist wasn't really neccecary. My crush got scared shitless from the effects and the sounds, i just thought it looked cool. It is not a scary movie. More of a psychedelic thriller. But i still think its a great movie
i went to see it with my crush too, i hope u guys together by now đ
whats ur guys fav movie out of this selection: The Night House, Last Night in Soho, Antlers, Halloween Kills, Candyman, Malignant, Old, and The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It??
1. Last Night In Soho
2. Malignant
3. Halloween Kills
Light Night in Soho
Have yall watched "Patient Zero" with Matt Smith as the lead. Its a nice take on the zombie idea
First half was flawless, definitely agree that the ending was too distracting and illogical for its own good and Edgar Wright seems to have this problem with all of his movies (wild illogical endings) but this movie might be his worst offender of this problem. Baby drivers ending was ridiculous but this ones wayyy worse. Still enjoyed it for the most part 6.5/10
If Wright's next film is also another poorly written mess, it will confirm my suspicion that his first set of movies are great mainly because of Pegg's writing. The guy can definitely direct though. Stick to that. Stay away from writing.
Agree. Loved the first half. The 2nd half took a nosedive of sorts for me.
brother joe, just letting you know the title is misspelled. just like my comment lol thank you for the reviews
Although I think some of this is valid criticism but yâall really just missed what he was going for.
1. Ellie never killed anyone, the police officer was not paying attention in the street. No one was âpushedâ
2. The reason she saw Matt Smith kill Sandie is because he technically killed SandieâŠ. Sandie was the stage name that Alexandra was going for, the person she wanted to be in the glitz and glamor of London, the person that wanted to make it and perform in 1960s London, but when Matt Smith did what he did and pimped her out⊠that was the day Sandie died.
3. The reason why the dead johns are blurry faced is because these are then men that Sandie does not remember, part of her routine she tries to forget, Matt Smith was the only face she remembered because of what he did to her (like did yall watch the movie)?
Spot on, idk how they missed it.
Great Nosferatu t-shirt Alex!
I got an ad cut away just as alex was about to express his opinions about the film.Even the YT algorithm yawns @ Alex's thoughts & opinions đ
I took the wife to it tonight and we both really liked it.
Yeah it depends where your mind is i mean the twist that these guys say they hate because it cancels the message shouldnt be taken as a fact just because they didnt like it it doesnt mean its an interesting switch of message especially with all the movies now a days being soooo one sided with the political agendas.
Its a fantastic film and enjoyable to watch. Being a critic means they question everything at all times while watching the movie.
So basically this movie is like what the first trailer was, fascinating at the beginning and off putting by the end.
Accually the twist is pretty good foreshadow since first scene in new apartament
How long before he realizes he titled it "Light Night in Soho"
When he realizes he pronounces horror like whore
Still hasn't realized it.
Light Night? I thought it was Last Night.
Got 6 mins in and Joe's giving the plot scene-by-scene. Will come back once I've seen the movie as I'm an Edgar fan.
Did you watch it?
@@alexman378 Yeah, very stylish and different but also not my favourite of his movies. Reminds me I need to watch this review now!
Joe, 1965 is not a pre-Beatles year ! In fact, a lot of their hits are from 1964 &65.
How on earth did she kill the old guy?! He stood on the street and someone hit him with their car. Secondly, when she tried to "kill" her bully, she was in the midst of hallucinating and from her pov, she was trying to kill the zombie Johns not realizing that she was about to kill the bully instead. Did you guys even watch the film lol?
So itâs got the doctor, Edgar wright and anya Taylor joy. Hell yeah.
I think it didnât go anywhere because thereâs no actual antagonist, the conflicts have no payoff or are never addressed, the film sets up a lot of interesting plot points and either abandons them or goes a different direction.
The movie never addresses it but when Ellieâs life starts going downhill and starts seeing ghosts everywhere. I think itâs that sheâs not sleeping anymore
Iâm thinking of watching it again. But I know Iâll be wondering why sheâs Sandie in her dreams. The first time you buy into it because you think sheâs dead and sheâs experiencing her life because sheâs a ghost and wants her killer brought to justice.
The police officer runs in front of the cab, she didnât push him
Light Night
Can we average all the scores for the final verdict ?
No
^ yeah no
Light Night?đ
Love that General Zod is in this film.
kneel before zod!
Is it me or has OJs movie standard for a good movie changed really drastically?
Iâll be honest I think all their reviews are just random. Theyâll criticize a movie and watch another one thatâs just like it and say itâs great. Also Alex just doesnât like movies ive noticed this.
@@Tampafan33 yeah it seems like Alex kinda just hates most things
@@badaccentgaming271 alex is just very critical, he liked dune a lot. He also said he liked aspects of this movie as well as most of the first half.
Holy shit I almost agree w/ the crew on a fucking movie for once ha.. however I only seen it once. I was really hoping for better suspenseful moments in this (I wasn't feeling the ghost special effects either). The main reason I did enjoy it was because of Thomasin McKenzie (Jojo Rabbit) she's a gem. I was also happy to see Dianna Rigg (RIP) I loved her in Game of Thrones and of course Anya is always great. I think it's worth a watch just for McKenzie's performance alone I'll be visiting this one again though.
Yeah the ghost special effects were weak. But yes McKenzie is awesome.
New paranormal activity was decent. Also the chucky TV series is a lot better than I was expecting
Where is your angry review with you for Resident Evil 4 VR?!?!
No review
Last Jedi in Solo
Dark night in soho will be the sequel, then there's the spoof Last Knight in Soho. And let us not forget the eventual porn parody One Night in Soho.
Last Light Night
'Last Night in Soho' should be the title of this vid :)
One of the issues with the movie is that these guys say you donât see Sandie die, you do. In all the visions afterwards she had her throat slit. You can even see tons of behind the scenes photos where the actress has the prosthetic slit neck on. It was a fake out and a bad one at that. One of the few bad things in this really solid movie.
"In all the visions afterwards she had her throat slit"
That is flat out wrong. I just look at the clips from the movie and she doesn't have her throat slit in the visions afterwards.
@@Bronzescorpion Read the comment again thoroughly before telling me Iâm wrong. Because Iâm not and if you cared to research it youâd know that.
@@drfr0stii704 I literally went back and saw frames from the movie, so yes you are wrong.
@@Bronzescorpion You didnât read what I said. READ the comment bro, some of the cuts didnât show it, in behind the scenes photos you can literally see a prosthetic neck piece slit open. Do your research before telling someone better educated than you that they are incorrect. I donât care to hear your reply so donât bother.
@@drfr0stii704 I did read your comments and don't ask people to read it properly when you are contradicting yourself:
"In all the visions afterwards she had her throat slit"
"some of the cuts didnât show it"
Not only are you saying two different things here, but as I said I went back and looked at the shots in the movie. The cut in the neck isn't there. So I did my research, I went to the primary source. It doesn't matter if you saw little green aliens in the behind the scenes photos, if they don't end up in the movie, they are not a part of it.
Fact is, you don't see her die and she hasn't had her throat cut in the visions afterwards.
Someone tell me how garlic overpowers smell of dead people
Once more, When are they going to remove alex from the show?
Why because he doesn't like garbage
If you don't like his "opinion" then sucks to be you I guess đ
@@yorkieratproductions Nono im just wondering about when theyre removing him from the show.... ? what are you talking about.
@@HonkeyKong54 Hm not really, but yeah hes quite garbage for the show, I agree with you.
