The science in Alice in Borderland has the same relationship to physics that I have to going to the gym: aspirational.

Alice in Borderland treats "worldbuilding" the way a toddler treats a fruit bowl — enthusiastically, briefly, then forgotten.

Unpopular opinion: Alice in Borderland is the most overrated film of the decade
Look, I wanted to love Alice in Borderland. 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: Alice in Borderland's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Director clearly thought Alice in Borderland was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Alice in Borderland?
Honestly, Alice in Borderland would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Alice in Borderland actually is?
Just got out of Alice in Borderland and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.
