We were talking about John Wick in the action films thread, and this I think is another case of a film being made for a certain audience. I enjoyed it, didn't think it was especially good, but ultimately I think it was aiming more for fun than depth or serious meaning or anything. Another slice-of-life, ensemble (padraig was right to point out the "robert altmanisms" along the lines of Boogie Nights), nostalgia-forward bit of fun.mental how shit this was not even an actual film imo
Boogie Nights was similarly fun and nostalgia-forward, but had a better cast and, I found, more tragic depth across the ensemble of characters.
