Brief uncertain thoughts on Astrolatry (2026) Cannes

 I honestly don't know what to make of this film. A weird guy becomes obsessed with a facial cream, and the model pushing it...and monsters.

The pieces of this film are really good. There is a nice surreal/experimental edge to it and the individual scenes work isolated, but there was a point where I stopped asking about what I was watching and just disconnected. There was too much unsaid and unexplained. I never felt they tied together.

But then again, it's got a cool monster and some creepy scenes

Worth a look for those who love weird cinema, all others take a pass
