neutral · AI labelView post →And for me the real inflection point is Celine Song’s Materialists. Today became A24’s 3rd highest grossing movie ever nearing $100 million on a supposed budget of $20m & way less than Civil War’s marketing spend. This idea that ‘middle range’ movies are dead is bullshit!!! Celine keeps proving it.
positive · AI labelView post →Watched "Materialists" last night. Fascinating movie. I think it'd be worse if it were "good"

neutral · AI labelView post →Celine Song breaks down the most important line of ‘MATERIALISTS’ “I think the most important line in the whole film is ‘I’m not merchandise, I’m a person’... all of us, we are asked to objectify and commodify ourselves and it does not stop when it comes to love and dating.”
neutral · AI labelView post →Thanks to its deep and nuanced understanding of romance and human nature, Celine Song’s ‘MATERIALISTS’ stands out as one of the best movies of 2025 so far. Find out more in our review... discussingfilm.net/2025/06/09/m...
neutral · AI labelView post →I think I am a soft-to-strong member of Team Materialists, a movie everybody stopped talking about weeks ago. Feels like the movie that has best channeled the energy of Dakota Johnson saying "Actually, that's not true, Ellen."
positive · AI labelView post →Welcome back to DIARRHEA, AT THE MOVIES! I'm your host, and I have diarrhea. Today we're reviewing Celine Song's MATERIALISTS, in theaters now. I've gotta say, I did not see most of the movie, because I was in the bathroom with diarrhea

neutral · AI labelView post →I love the movie Materialists because it posits that being a 5'6 man with a beautiful wife is the single most difficult achievement in the world
positive · AI labelView post →MATERIALISTS and THE LIFE OF CHUCK: two flawed but fascinating movies that reminded me why I love doing The Big Picture with Amanda. open.spotify.com/episode/1uoF...
neutral · AI labelView post →Because a lot of you have asked. MATERIALISTS — too many movies in that movie. I was rooting for it!
negative · AI labelView post →3. The Materialists This movie is nuts. Are we sure that the same person who made Past Lives made this movie? Everyone talks like they’re AI. No one has chemistry. [LIGHT SPOILER] A major plot point turns on someone getting that surgery in which they break your legs to make you taller. WHAT??
negative · AI labelView post →I wrote about MATERIALISTS. didn’t like it! thefilmstage.com/materialists...
negative · AI labelView post →All I can say is watch “The Materialists” with a friend. You’re gonna need some to talk with throughout. It’s a frustrating and truly fascinating movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Did anyone actually like "The Materialists"? Like, actually enjoy watching it? And if so, why? Genuinely curious. I thought it was the most depressing movie I've seen in years.
negative · AI labelView post →At its best, Celine Song’s new film, “Materialists,” “displays startling inspiration not just in Song’s writing of dialogue but also in the way she provides this dialogue with a cinematic identity,” @tnyfrontrow.bsky.social writes. Read his review:
neutral · AI labelView post →Actually shocking how little Marxism there is in the rich boyfriend who is nice is bad (???) and poor boyfriend who is a real piece of shit is good (???) movie named Materialists
negative · AI labelView post →Round 1: Snacks. Not really inspired by anything besides the fact that I can make killer pretzel bites >:) but I'm also having a beer and a Coke inspired by my favorite trashy movie of the year Materialists 🙂↕️
positive · AI labelView post →I loathe how film fandom spaces, I mean fans of films and filmmaker, are so disingenuous when responding to general audiences’ valid and often insightful reactions to films like The Materialists. A film can be beautifully crafted and the story/message it presents can still be worthy of criticism.
neutral · AI labelView post →Celine Song’s Materialists is not just a bad movie - it is an eldritch horror with the veneer of a Maiden Home catalogue. I *hated* it: open.substack.com/pub/cchelmet...

neutral · AI labelView post →Heads up, a character is sexually assaulted in the movie The Materialists. It’s not any of the leads. A lot of people are coming out of the film upset because it felt like it came out of nowhere and was a jarring shift in tone. Be careful out there.
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching The Materialists, which seems so far like a movie about the coin flip question that you all have been discoursing about.
neutral · AI labelView post →for a movie obsessed with money and class MATERIALISTS gives dakota johnson’s character a *wildly* implausible salary lol

neutral · AI labelView post →Tilt “Materialists” at an angle and it’s the same film as “Past Lives,” only bolder and funnier. Really, Song wants to know whether a sensible girl can justify shackling herself to a broke creative. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...
neutral · AI labelView post →i watched the new celine song film Materialists. i wish i knew more about what dating in new york city is like to better grasp whether the pessimism around dating at the heart of the film is bolstered or weakened by being set in nyc
neutral · AI labelView post →‘Materialists’ exceeded my expectations. Not a film for everyone and a bit uneven in tone, but I definitely found it enjoyable & compelling. Makes you think about what brings value to a person & how you put value on others.
positive · AI labelView post →welp it appears the movie MATERIALISTS is going to be my personality for the next two to four weeks.
neutral · AI labelView post →saw another person call Materialists an evil movie, and more than anything, i'm worried that words are starting to lose meaning
neutral · AI labelView post →Subscribed to my first movie theater yesterday and checked out the new Alamo Drafthouse Mountain View. Saw The Materialists which was excellent, although not the romantic comedy I thought it would be.
positive · AI labelView post →Athens summer cinema--lovely evening at Theseion watching the Materialists, a well-acted movie with a sharp script (a bit Jane Austeny with its frankness about love and finances), plus nearly full moon, kittens, and the aroma of νυχτολούλουδο (night-blooming jasmine).
positive · AI labelView post →I get to see The Materialists tonight with my girlfriend and her film-fan friends. Gotta have normie theater etiquette, not scratching good lines into my notepad every couple of minutes. BE COOL, DAVE, BE COOL.
neutral · AI labelView post →my hottest film take of the year remains that the people most hateful toward Materialists are the most likely to embody the callous mindset about modernity that the film exposes, and are simply angry because they’ve been read so thoroughly
positive · AI labelView post →I remember hearing how MATERIALISTS was some acidic anti-romance movie but now I've seen it and it's just a well done romance. Am I wrong to think people just don't want to admit they liked a romance?
positive · AI labelView post →Just watched “Materialists” and I’ve never watched a movie fight so hard against itself. There’s a really snappy movie about choosing true love over money buried somewhere in there but it gets muddied by a tragic sexual assault drama that begs for more attention than it’s given.
neutral · AI labelView post →Watched THE MATERIALISTS, which easily secures a place in the Long Pause Movie canon
positive · AI labelView post →We’ll have an episode on this next week, but in the meantime, here’s my full review of MATERIALISTS, a movie that made ask, among many other questions, “Has Celine Song ever been broke?” www.npr.org/2025/06/13/n... Review: ‘Materialists’ isn’t quite a romance worth swooning over : NPR
neutral · AI labelView post →Celine Song’s new film, “Materialists,” like “Past Lives,” is a triangle without a villain. But scene after scene leaves you wondering how the protagonist, played by Dakota Johnson, “could be so stumped by this particular problem,” @justincchang.bsky.social writes.
neutral · AI labelView post →The director of #PastLives returns to love triangle territory with her latest film, #Materialists. Dakota Johnson's matchmaker is caught between Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal in the new rom-com. Watch the trailer here: www.empireonline.com/movies/news/...

neutral · AI labelView post →I watched Materialists (2025). About a matchmaker who's in a love triangle: one guy checks all the "boxes" while the other guy doesn't, but he makes her heart throb. A very entertaining movie, made me reflect on the thin line between treating people like objects vs being assertive on what you want.
positive · AI labelView post →plane from Japan watched a film, Materialists, about the lengths people go to find their perfect match...Pedro Pascal, Chris Evans and Dakota Johnson, I have to say it is one of the most vapid and ridiculous movies I've seen in years - I call a sleep walker..because everyone in it does...hard pass.

neutral · AI labelView post →I feel pretty basic giving One Battle 5 stars, but it was one of the best movie-going experiences I've ever had. Also Materialists has an incredible atonal, Lady From Shanghai, like quality to it. I can see why people hate it, but it's a fascinating movie. #letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched
positive · AI labelView post →Materialists (2025) is an entire movie that was made just to tell everyone that short kings deserve love too.
neutral · AI labelView post →ok according to The Stranger, Materialists was actually shot on film. sorry i wasnt familiar with your game. I
neutral · AI labelView post →Materialists hit me in a really specific way, as a film made by someone genuinely disturbed by the inhuman, transactional behaviour of many people around her, and how that has destabilized our sense of self-worth and the value we see in others
positive · AI labelView post →I decided to review Celine Song's MATERIALISTS. I liked it.
positive · AI labelView post →On Across the Movie Aisle this week, we asked if MATERIALISTS works (yes and no) and if boycotting Mubi on BDS grounds will work (no, unless your desire is to hurt independent film). www.thebulwark.com/p/indie-cine...
