Safdie's make hollow films. They have phenomenal casting, set design, art design, production, score, etc... Basically all other aspects of their films are tip notch. Often feel like a trailer park Tarantino picture, but the central figures are amoral, shite-heel, scumbags, with virtually no redeeming and no remorse for any other actions that of the result in deaths of others.

These qualities leave you, the audience, and the film, feeling hollow and thats why there is almost always that sense that something in the film is "off."

Josh particularly also always tries to turn every film into an anxiety filled chase, instead of a straightforward story, and that is a big flaw. The entire fricking dog sequence should have been cut from Marty Supreme. It's not needed at all and the film has no business being 2.5 hrs.

Chalamet is fine, but he reminds me way too much of young Shia Lebouf. They have the same energy and cadence.

Overall, the music choices are A+. Essentially every central figures is not.

Chalamet was good, but it ran a little long and I didn't buy his reaction at the end.

Some of the table tennis was bad CGI.

Haven’t seen the movie, but everything I’ve read about the story leads me to believe the lead character isn’t necessarily a likeable guy…

I enjoyed it. It sure as hell wasn't your predictable Hollywood fodder. The casting was so off the wall with some deep cuts. Sandra Bernhard was unrecognizable. Mr. Wonderful, Penn Jillette, Isaac Mizrahi, George Gervin, podcaster Luke Manley, and the homeless guy with the broadcaster voice that was all over the news fifteen years ago, Ted Williams.
