The (literal) needle drop on the Yeah Yeah Yeahs song added an extra star for me. But, I'd also watch Anya Taylor Joy read a Cheesecake Factory menu , so maybe I'm biased.
This movie was impossibly dumb. “You’re the only man who will protect us from hell for the next year. Now free solo this cliff we didn’t tell you about and randomly find your mission. Your predecessor will train you for one hour then leave.”
My wife grew up in the 80s, and I grew up in the 90s and this movie hit just about every popcorn movie button for the both of us. Its good clean turn your brain off for 90 minutes of action, love, and nonsense, which we used to get often.
A Gorge drinking game for those who haven't seen it yet-- take a drink every time Anya Taylor-Joy, immediately and regardless of distance, senses being watched.
Whole movie felt and looked like a canceled video game they slapped a love story around, up to and including getting lore dumps from things skeletons are clutching in the evil lab.

Hugh Grant is excellent. He’s seems to be enjoying his mid-to-late career change as the heel/villain
It’s on HBO this month
