Some psychiatrist once said that "suicide is the shy person's homicide." I think that can be BS most of the time, but in this case it definitely felt like Nick finally stopped lashing out at everyone he knew, liked, or even loved, and turned on himself.

I don't think range is the end-all be-all for an actor—Ford is a more old-fashioned star, one of those actors who are known for his persona more than for his range. I love Isaac a lot, though, so I hope he nails it. For all our sakes.

Yeah, I think it also showed how desperate and disconnected he was from any healthy political-people instincts at that point. It's inconsiderate, it's scary to the residents, whom he knows from having gone to the housing lottery are mostly single moms living with small children. I don't blame any of them for shutting

I also got frustrated but I think it's pretty important to try to empathize with her. She's a super-young mom with a somewhat abusive partner, but he's pretty much the only person he's got. He's the father of her two/three kids. Can't blame her for hoping that they could start over and be a real family. And he was a

He did, I think the show deliberately left that part out to emphasize the emptiness he felt after leaving politics. I wonder how much of this could have been avoided if he hadn't risen so high at such a young age. His later losses must have felt like an unacceptable level of failure.

Really? I would view them as polar opposites—both of them are trying to ameliorate situations caused by other people's reckless behavior, but one favors supreme self-control and struggling with that quality as a possible downfall, while the other is just desperate and naive.

Inwardly I was going "Don't!!" when that kid called her "Poodle Lady" and chased after her dogs. I thought she was going to smack him or something. Luckily it was nothing more than a scene of a cute kid going, "Goodbye, poodles! Goodbye!" God, so cute.

I think it's supposed to be "No's," not "nose"

I think you're right. If I recall, that's reason the scientist had the suit in the first place. He and his partner worked in some government lab and were making/testing the suit with the hopes of making it available for every citizen, but the fallout occurred before they made it past the prototype stage.

I don't really care if someone likes his movies. Before I stopped watching them, I enjoyed them thoroughly. It's an emotional, individual reaction that can't be helped. But I do find the "I enjoy Polanski movies and I have a huge problem with people who don't watch them because he's a rapist!" people a bit eye-rolling

I don't get why people refuse to understand that sometimes you can't separate art wholly from their creators. OP's not *refusing* to like it, they saw it and the new information about who made this movie shifted and colored their understanding of what it is as art. A more egregious hypothetical example: You read a

Shakespeare in Love is a fantastic movie. It's just been very much maligned by people still sore over Saving Private Ryan losing.

I howl at that and I'm a full-sized adult. That scene in general is one of my favorites.

For me, this is still the best scene in the series. I don't know, I just love it so much.

Oh my god, yes. He would have fucking killed it, pun intended.

Did Ruffalo have extra makeup? I know they shaved his head to make him appear bald, but don't think they used prosthetics or anything.

Eh, I don't really like this trend (is it a trend?) of using incredibly distracting on makeup on actors who seem to have been miscast in the first place. Like is Johnny Depp really irreplaceable? There's no other middle-aged white male Hollywood star bearing a stronger resemblance to Bulger who could have played this?

"If you don't walk away from the movie thinking Ellen Page is as big of a monster as the dude." As big. Monster level = same.

She was what, 16 or 17 when they made this? I think that's a hell of a performance for anyone that age.

She's a monster and superbly messed up, but I still think most people are gonna side a littttttle bit with the teenager who wreaked revenge on a pedophile over the pedophile who victimized innocent children. You're pretty alone there, dude.
