They made the cat star in the Netflix movie “Caught Stealing” with Austin Butler a “biter” but he’s a handsome boy called “Bud” & as lovable as my boy!
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm curious about the movie Caught Stealing from the commercials I've seen it looks like it would be good.
neutral · AI labelView post →Darren Aronofsky made CAUGHT STEALING last year, a fun, mean-spirited 1990s throwback crime movie that no one saw. I don’t want to write off the guy, but this ai bullshit makes it hard.

positive · AI labelView post →Caught Stealing: I'd never have expected Darren Aronofsky to make a five-star three-star movie, but here we are. Sure, it could be more. But it's fun!
neutral · AI labelView post →Bro u literally just made a movie called "Caught Stealing"
neutral · AI labelView post →Now seated for Caught Stealing, a baseball/cat/New York City movie I just can’t pass up
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm not going to see a movie called "Caught Stealing" unless it's a Jane's Addiction biopic starring Caleb Landry Jones as a young, drugged-out Perry Farrell reveling in a life of sex, drugs, and kleptomania.
neutral · AI labelView post →Just watched Caught Stealing (pretty damn good). They did a great job of recreating 1998 NYC, incl. Shea Stadium, which was demolished in 2008. This image, which is on the Netflix page, but is NOT in the movie, shows the characters by CitiField, which replaced Shea and wasn’t constructed until 2009
positive · AI labelView post →Caught Stealing is the Darren Aronofsky film no-one's talking about. And it's pretty damn good. My thoughts 👇
positive · AI labelView post →It’s pretty funny that Aronofsky’s new film is called “Caught Stealing” considering how many times this has happened to him.
neutral · AI labelView post →Just finished watching Caught Stealing... better movie than the reviews say but this feels so different than how it was advertised. Super dark I was expecting more like Lucky Number Slevin.

neutral · AI labelView post →Watched Caught Stealing The marketing made the film seem like a silly crime caper which is there but within it is some surprising moments that i can't tell mixes well. Nevertheless, it is still a fun movie with Austin Butler easily being the highlight of the movie

positive · AI labelView post →I didn’t hear much hype for it so I’m kinda surprised but…Darren Aronofsky’s Caught Stealing is one of my favorite films of the year. It’s the best film of his I’ve seen since Black Swan. A total triumph.
positive · AI labelView post →My review of Caught Stealing for The Film Verdict: #filmsky 📽️
neutral · AI labelView post →#letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched Arrival - Arguably Villeneuve's finest film to date. Amy Adams was Oscar snubbed. Caught Stealing - Meh, but Austin Butler is good Send Help - Rachel McAdams needs more lead roles Scorpion King - Sword and sandal camp that you don't see a lot of these days

neutral · AI labelView post →Happy #LetterboxdFriday! The Salesman - A film that leaves you conflicted between the protagonist and antagonist. Caught Stealing - a fun crime caper, though won't live too long in the memory. Alien 3 - Yeah I get the hate for this. Poor CGI and Alien and stomps on legacy of previous film

positive · AI labelView post →Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension is a banger... obviously. Caught Stealing also a banger. The Roses, though took some time to get to the meat of the story, is also banging. Thanks to that film and Deadpool for reminding me to leave the stove off. #letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched #filmsky

positive · AI labelView post →Caught Stealing (2025) is hilarious, sexy and nerve-racking. Some truly dark twists and turns remind you that despite the films cool presentation, it's still an Aronofsky film at its core. Also, it has the best kitty. Precious, adorable, bitey little bean. Loved it. 👍
positive · AI labelView post →I can’t believe I’m going to say this about a Darren Aronofsky movie, but Caught Stealing was a (very violent and emotional) hoot!
positive · AI labelView post →Caught Stealing already the most important movie ever.
positive · AI labelView post →Oh, fuck yes. They made a movie of Charlie Huston's CAUGHT STEALING and he wrote the screenplay. It's about fucking time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mIv...
