Review of I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore.

Notes:
*I wasn't too sure what to think of this with the trailer not really grabbing me to be honest.
*I mostly didn't care for it because of Melanie Lynskey being kind of boring to me.
*This is Macon Blair's first movie as a director although he wrote a horror movie called Monkey's Paw as well.
*Anyways it's a Netflix original and I was bored so I decided to tune in.

Pros:
*The last 30 or so minutes was the best part for me.
*Macon Blair is actually a pretty decent director who probably took pointers from Jeremy Saulnier.
*Melanie Lynskey was much more interesting here than in her XX segment.
*Elijah Wood is awesome as always.
*In some ways it reminded me of God Bless America.
*The ending was pretty good.

Cons:
*It's not as funny as I was hoping.
*There were moments that could have been improved.

Verdict:
This was better than I expected. I mostly enjoyed it for the last bits, but it overall was more than I expected it to be. It could have been funnier though. Hopefully Macon Blair continues to do this kind of work if he directs more. Maybe if you like Melanie Lynskey it may be more interesting to check out. I would say give it a shot either way as it may surprise you.
