Reply To: Do you also dislike the phrase “This is a fun score”?
Depends on your perspective. In my experience, it usually comes off as reductive. I remember discussing Alex Garland’s EX MACHINA, for example, a film I consider one of the best of the 2010s, super rich with layers of meaning – expressed both via dialogue and visuals.
I agree; IIRC, I considered it the best film of that year.
