I've only seen a couple of Wheatley films, Kill List was good then batshit crazy, my wife hated it, i didn't mind it. We both liked High Rise though, but i can see why people might not like his films.
(Did start AFIE but fell asleep early in and didn't bother to rewatch)Hoping this is a little more user friendly. It's only because we have unltd passes and trying to get our monies worth that we are seeing it (early Screening for members, and free popcorn, who wouldn't go?)
I've never really understood the Ben Wheatley fanfare. I really want to. But I just can't. His adverts/comic sketches were fun and he's obviously enthusiastic - I just can't help thinking that Down Terrace, Kill List, AFIE, Sightseers, High Rise are all a bit... shit. I have higher hopes for Free Fire but I think it's an unusual choice as far as career progression goes.
Said someone on the internet who's never made a feature film.
On the subject of career progression - from The Kings of Summer to King Kong... How?
