One Battle After Another

One Battle After Another

One Battle After Another is simultaneously terrible and amazing. Or rather it narrowly avoids being terrible while trying its hardest to stink. The script is absurd, the subject matter is clique and it's far too literal to be traditionally good. Somehow though it's very very good.

It's almost made better by the fact that it is constantly pushing at the edge of being bad. I could easily see it being a B grade cult classic if it had a smaller budget or less skilled actors.

Instead it's nominated for best picture and manages to pull off a death defying dare devil act.
