Karl 3,171 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 This is the kind of film that don't work at cinemas now, only seems to be event films that do particularly well, the middle of the road or mid budget films we used to get all the time are now streaming films for many people. It's a shame but if the film is genuinely bad I guess it checks out, however I do worry for the future of actually good mid budget films, there just isn't an audience anymore. You either have to be a mega event film and do well at multiplex or be a foreign or indie darling and do well in the independent cinemas, those smaller Hollywood films just don't do well now unless they are sent to streaming.

RAMROD 104,126 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I saw it Friday. I understand why some people say it's bad and why it tanks. The plot are kinda all over the place. I guess people might be confused by that. It is funny though, to me anyway. But yeah, it is more like streaming movie, so better wait for it to be available on Apple TV+ since they are the studio that own this movie.

RichAssPiss 4,697 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 It's hardly Dua Lipa's Argylle. In that case, Dua Lipa's Barbie made $1 billion. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of the Fall 3,778 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Calling it "Dua Lipa''s Argylle" seems to be assigning a lot of importance to somebody who is in a grand total of 5 minutes of the movie. Hey, I'm king of the world, you ought to hear my song, you come on measure me, I'm twenty inches long Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is like saying “Dua Lipa’s Barbie smashes at the box office” “Barbie smashed, not Dua” teas Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nATAH 42,282 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 so weird of the media to use dua lipa's name like this, trying to stain her name in the movie industry before she's even begun mother, what must i do? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebeldeFaith 4,555 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Should've gone straight to streaming tbh. The way people used to go watch movies at the theater is changing and everyone is more selective about the stories they want to spend time and money on. These types of stories don't attract young people anymore. Something something idk Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
monstertoronto 8,748 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 3 hours ago, Anderson123 said: I watched this yesterday with no expectations because my friend likes action / fantasy movies but they were also showing The Holdovers and Past Lives which are the next ones I’m going to see. Argylle isn’t thaaat bad but it’s so cheesy and doesn’t take itself serious. Dua Lipa is also there during the first 5 mins so I don’t understand how this has been promoted with her at the front. That dancing scene with Henry is pretty much half her appearance lol. This was also more a Bryce Dallas + Sam Rockwell lead movie. I was disappointed Henry was not that much in it but it’s part of the story. That’s interesting because the marketing make it look like Dua and Henry are the leads. I didn’t even know Bryce was in it. So if people go for Dua and Henry they might give it bad exit scores just because they felt misled. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbekim 2,976 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I watched it last night and I was really disappointed. The trailers are really misleading and it was way too long for this plot. If you have some rad remixes you made laying around, send it to me!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTPOPSYCHOLOGY 6,237 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Feel like we should change the title? Feels like some sort of unnecessary shade towards Dua (and I’m not even a “Stan” per se) and she’s in it for 3 minutes. Catherine O’Hara & Bryan Cranston are iconic actors and actresses, they made their bag but probably their worst received project to date. The studio is the one that suffers lol.

No, they were advertised differently. We knew that Gaga was there briefly, they didn't focus the campaign on her. Maybe with Machete because she was on the poster, but it makes sense since it's such a bizzarre movie and it featured everyone on the poster Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
