DSWW W One of my favorite films of all time. It’s a must-watch for former desert ravers, wanderers, or anyone drawn to the Slab City/derelict-lifestyle aesthetic. Suki Waterhouse delivers a standout performance in the lead role, and the supporting cast says everything about the film’s unique tone: Jim Carrey appears in one of the most unusual roles of his career, Keanu Reeves leans into a rare villain-leaning character, and Giovanni Ribisi leaves an impression as a twitchy, desert-worn raver with a possible schizophrenic edge. The setting is just as memorable. "Comfort" was filmed near Slab City in Niland, California, capturing the gritty, sun-baked beauty of the real desert. If you love atmospheric, slow-burn tension mixed with surreal, artistic visuals—similar to the eerie Steve Buscemi scene in Con Air with the abandoned desert house—this film hits that sweet spot. Add in its blend of cannibalism, chaos, rave-culture drug undertones, and Jason Momoa delivering pure, unapologetic badassery, and you’ve got something genuinely one-of-a-kind. There’s a reason it’s one of my all-time favorites. Don't just take my word for it, give it a watch! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/14/25 Full Review Cher L It’s a pointless movie. It starts off quite exciting and you think you’re in for a good one…but NO. There isn’t a storyline, it’s boring and just seems totally pointless with a very cringy ‘happy family’ ending. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/08/25 Full Review Pedro Henrique C The Bad Batch (2017) is a dark, pointless thing, a weird movie that starts out well and then gets worse by the minute. The lack of dialogue It really harms the experience and makes us stop watching it in the first few minutes. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/20/25 Full Review Bruno V Filme de verdade , nao é uma distopia, é apenas a realidade contada de uma forma desgastante e longa. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Sinéad W No storyline? People clearly missing the messaging of the movie. It’s about being outsiders, people on the margins. It’s about morality and how it’s fluid depending on the context. It’s about being in survival mode and stepping out of survival mode to let people in. The non verbal communication was so powerful in this movie. If you didn’t get it, if you think it’s missing something then you’re not paying attention to the symbolism Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/11/25 Full Review john c Regardless of what some critics are saying I rather enjoyed every moment of vevery episode & season Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/10/25 Full Review Read all reviews
