Instead of a very particular set of skills acquired over a long career the lead character is a looser stoner who screams at everyone.
So? That’s kind of the whole point of the movie. He used to be the French 75’s explosives guy but he has long decided that his revolutionary days are over. Now, almost 20 years later, his past comes back to haunt him and his completely innocent daughter.
Not every movie needs a power fantasy action hero as its protagonist.
This movie… If you want to be annoyed for three hours this movie is for you!! This movie does an excellent job of making every part of it annoying. - Want annoying action scenes… (see bloated pregnant women firing machine guns) this movie has them - Want annoying character names (see Jungle Pussy and Lockjaw) this movie has them. - Want annoying characters (see all of them) this movie has them - Want blaring scene inappropriate music, this movie has that! - Want annoying dialogue, this movie has that! - Want clumsy, vague and annoying story points, this movie has that. - Want to see annoying sex scenes, this movie has several of those! - Want to be annoyed that you can’t get those three hours back, this movie is for you! I understand that this is considered the best movie of 2025… holy hell if that is true 2025 has to be worst year for movies in history.
I am criticizing a movie and you are being an asshole.
Fuck you, eat shit and die.
You’re not, actually.
Criticism requires more effort, understanding, and explanation.
What you’re doing is complaining, or whingeing. “No like movie. Movie bad.”
To offset the other comment, I would say it’s a good movie but it’s probably not for everyone. While it has quite a few action scenes, I would say those are not the main focus of the story. It’s a movie about a guy who stood up for his ideals in a violent way when he was younger and paid the price. Now, 15-20 years later, he does his best leave it all behind. He lives a very private life, shuts out his trauma with drugs and can barely remember how to contact his old friends. The problem is, someone from his past still has a score to settle and his innocent teenage daughter gets caught in the crossfire so he’s forced to deal with the consequences of his decades-old actions again.
Also, expect a bunch of pretty open criticism of the way things work in the USA right now. Right at the beginning, we see an attempt at freeing illegal immigrants from a detention camp and later there’s a lot more.

Voting ended about two weeks ago, and Chalemet’s recent comments that caused negative press were about a week ago. So no, I don’t think they caused him issues.
The film itself is just fine. It is well acted, so maybe best actor, but Michael B Jordan and Leo both have him beat.
