Opus

Yeah... this was bad. This movie wanted so desperately to be The Menu. The acting was bad. The writing was bad. The development was undercooked. A lot of it didn't make any sense. I have never seen Ayo act in anything else before, but this was not good acting here. I don't want to form an opinion based on one movie, because John Malkovich was also terrible, so it was probably just the director. A well-deserved flop.

First off, John Malkovich is great. As usual. But he couldn’t hold this incoherent film together on his own. The movie feels like it has something to say with no voice. Huge swing and a miss for A24.

Just another weird, less gory version of Midsommar

it looks alright, weird vibes, but there's nothing really being said. it's pretty boring as well.

Just not a good. Watch Companion or Strange Darling if you want thrills. This movie is like if you put every A24 movie into an AI bot and said write me a cult movie. Boring, predictable and just lazy. Do better A24.

Needs more Moroder... Moretti songs and rushes the ending but the rest is solidly weird

Excellent movie if u don't get this u don't get anything about ur own life.

"We have Ari Aster at home" ahh movie.

I finally watched Opus today after having it on my watchlist for quite some time, and it was absolutely worth my time. At first glance, it might seem like your typical movie with a familiar plot, where you think you can predict the ending. But as it unfolds, it becomes clear that Opus is anything but average. This film is an experience. Beneath its surface lies a layered and complex narrative that demands your attention. It challenges you to look beyond the obvious, pay close attention to subtle details, and think outside the typical storytelling framework. It was jaw-dropping, eerie, and thrilling, at times even unsettling in the best way. If you enjoy films with unexpected twists, depth, and psychological complexity, Opus is a must-watch

If you ask me, 'OPUS' is another masterpiece and a great addition to a long line of cult classics. Ayo Edebiri plays a curious journalist who is invited to an album listening retreat by a legendary pop-star, played by John Malckovich, who has been in solitude for years. The movie started on a rather light tone, not really showing that it has anything to offer, but as time passes it transitioned slowly, and steadily into a great movie unfolding every details by the second and later evolving to be not just a noise maker but a melodic love song to it's audience. While this all-is-not-what-it-seems piece of art is actually all what it seems, Ayo Edebiri and John Malckovich's were beautiful playing side by side each other giving us some of their best performances. 'OPUS' is not just another lame addition to cult classics it is a movie that delivers it's story with agility and stamina coupled with the unhinged performances from the ensemble. It was definitely worth the watch.
