These are the types of movies Dakota should be doing


This is where she shines, not in doing braindead superhero fluff. Hopefully the whole thing with Madame Web clue her on not bothering with super hero blockbusters anymore.

I never saw her super hero stuff. I thought the standout was Penn. For me the film wouldve been better not set in the cab the entire time. The story couldve gone elsewhere,,been bigger. It was a good film nonetheless

What was good about it?

Sean Penn always intrigued me,,,his acting is very credible to me. The guts of the film centered on their conversations. Their exchanges held my attention..But it grew tedious being set in the cab for the entire film. Would have liked to have seen these characters in a different setting.

Penn was good, but his character's lines were often cringy or rammed in. Same for Johnson. The whole script smelled of screenwriting 101.

I had no problem with the cab only setting, but the movie went nowhere and ultimately felt pointless and as superficial as its conversation.
