went and saw Infinity Pool, which disappointed with an aesthetic indulgence that did nothing to enliven the potentially interesting exploration of imposter syndrome as a result of nepotism among the landed elite. Mia Goth and Alexander SkarsgÄrd both great though. https://letterboxd.com/coreyatad/film/infinity-pool/
A review of Infinity Pool (2023)
Seems less an indictment of the wealthy than an expression of horror at ones imposter syndrome as the beneficiary of nepotism. Which is a fine idea for a movie, and the movie has moments of good fun, but it really never comes together, often feeling indulgent for the sake of it rather than because anything was being added. Really what kept me going through it was Mia Goth's unhinged performance opposite Skarsgard getting exactly the right amount of inner goofiness on the screen.
