neutral · AI labelView post →I rewatched, Woody Allen’s Wonder Wheel (2017). Another film with low ratings. They had it out for him. Even though the movie doesn’t really come together, it’s still wonderful. I adore the period setting and Kate is brilliant, but it’s the photography that blows me away. Gorgeous beyond belief.
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm surprised his Woody Allen pick isn't Wonder Wheel, a stunning, clever, gorgeous, somewhat disjointed, brutal, and deeply unpleasant movie. It's a lot of things Tarantino tries to achieve in his own work, done with an extraordinary aura of effortlessness and naturalism Tarantino rarely nears.
neutral · AI labelView post →I recently rewatched it. I love it obviously, but I prefer some that came after it like Irrational Man and Wonder Wheel. I think Match Point is better, too. I am grateful that the Diceman got to be in a Woody movie. Bobby Cannavale too. Cate's entitlement is so over the top. Brilliant performance.
positive · AI labelView post →variety.com/2020/film/ne... Wonder Wheel came out in 2017. If you didn't know about Woody Allen in 2017 it's because you didn't want to know.
neutral · AI labelView post →On the one hand I don’t love the idea of the Arclight becoming an Alamo Drafthouse with servers a recurring distraction but on the other hand I’m glad that WONDER WHEEL might not forever remain the last film I saw there.

neutral · AI labelView post →You made a joke years ago that for people looking to stop watching Woody Allen movies, Wonder Wheel is a great place to start. I think the same thing happened with The Marvels—people were looking for the right opportunity to check out of the MCU, and a movie about women of color felt like the moment

positive · AI labelView post →THE GLORIOUS DEAD by @adamsfamfilms.bsky.social is AMAZING. What a great new movie from Wonder Wheel/The Adams Family. This is a fun change from MOTHER OF FLIES and H6LLB6ND6R!

I'm grateful to have not been born in the 1930s. #yearofwinslet #katewinslet #filmsky #wonderwheel boxd.it/dVlIKL

It was a dream come true to film ON the Wonder Wheel and to feature Coney Island sideshow performers in eVil Sublet. Every New Yorker must experience both live and in person themselves! (also watch eVil Sublet on Tubi)
