Watched it last night..it was ehhhh

A couple of not so subtle homo lines

Plot was convoluted AF. Who TF was shooting in the warehouse???

The final twist at the end I didn't fully get either....guess they were supposed to go out like Butch and Sundance..fell asleep on a couple parts
 
PRAISE : Sometimes i think actors take on projects just to work together again and i dont have a problem with that especially if the chemistry is there and it definitely is in this movie which stars George Clooney and Brad Pitt as fixers who are called in to take care of a problem in the form of a nameless young man (Austin Abrams) I liked that both fixers seemingly had control of the situation with a large amount of arrogance.
The performances of the two leads definitely uplift the film and the fact that they have worked together for awhile in the Ocean's movies shines through in some good moments in the movie. I really have to praise Abrams because filming a certain scene must have been really hard to film,also praise to the stunt man. I thought the pile on of complications for the two fixers were good. I did enjoy the fun moments the movie provides.


PROBLEM : The plot adds a lot of things ive seen in so many movies like this with two characters that are rivals in almost everything making the narrative really feel been there done that. I feel the movie should have had a lot more bite to it more edge to get me more involved. Having said that it was a good idea that this went straight to Apple TV


Scale of 1 to 10 a 6½
 
I wonder what the retention will look like.

AppleTV legit has good tv shows and films but their marketing is ASS
