What made Dante Alighieri one of the world's greatest poets and a foundational figure for Italian culture? We're not sure because we left this film more confused than when we started. Yes, we descend…
So, yeah, I when we originally this movie came across our plate or one of us saw a trailer and like on the trailer and on the premise, I was like, this seems very fascinating.
But then I peeked at the reviews before I watched it last night and I was like, oh, it did not bode well.
But I was sort of torn because I was kind of hoping and will probably invoke this film a few times over this episode.
And like that there's like ones that are like boring, bad and like interesting, bad.
Big swing and a miss, which is like sometimes an interesting thing to talk about.
But I'm not even sure it's that to kind of like what everyone's talking about.
I find myself in this vicious loop of like I'm confused at what's happening and I'm less invested in what's happening.
and then thus i'm less invested and then to this downward spiral until finally at the end and the only thing i can think about is like wow like gail gadot and jace momoa are like both supposed to be italian in this scene and they're like speaking at each other in this kind of weird accented english and then there's an actual italian who comes along but she also only speaks in english and then she gets thrown off a pier but she falls on like the one square foot of rock That's not water.
And then I was like, and if you were to gun to my head, like, what is this movie? Describe the plot of this movie.
