Like all good aquatic horror movies, the human drama is actually more engaging than the terrifying sea creatures. ... Remember how everybody wants the rat removed from the end of The Departed?

Like most men, whether they will admit it or not, I am basically made up of the male characters in this film. There's been times where I've been so uncomfortable with myself and my opinions that I aped others opinions as my own. There's been times where I've been a pompous, bitter, difficult person and made being around impossible. There's been times where I've not known what was going on in my life and just wanted to cum on things. "Is she a Knicks fan?"

Well the dad clearly has some regrets and issues, and the mother sure is a bit too honest. Messed up family but as we can see, people persist and life goes on. It may suck, but in reality it doesn't. It just happens and it just is. It defines you and you grow with all the pleasantries and unpleasantries alike. I really liked the tone of this film, but I'm biased as really dig what Baumbach is usually offering and this one was no exception.

So painful to watch. Brutally honest as a personal piece on the destruction a divorce causes. Gotta love its relentless pace, although I don't know if the easy portrait of toxic masculinity survives the test of time.
