[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Covet: Island of Desire?
Look, I wanted to love Covet: Island of Desire. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Hot Take: Covet: Island of Desire's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Just got out of Covet: Island of Desire and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.
