Monkey Man was...not good.
#was not aware I needed a working knowledge of India's political landscape for context before I began for one thing#was SO confused as to what the hell was going on for such a vast portion of it. 'i gather there is some corruption But Why And For What?'#it's too long and mostly dull and the soundtrack is hell and the gore is well beyond my tolerance level#i would declare it an all time worst without dev patel at the center of it (as he does manage to pull off being devastatingly attractive#in various ways throughout the film including the scenes where he feeds a stray dog)#but it's still on the list of 'worst films I have watched for a fave'#which is a pity as I didn't know this was such a passion project for him (I didn't realize how involved he was until the credits...#we couldn't believe how many roles he was handling behind the camera and of course my response was pretty much:#'stop attaching your name to this! take your name off this party!!')#i'm trying to find decent gifsets because I think that's the best way to appreciate it but tag is scary as people are still giffing The Gor#movie night with televinita
