A movie too good for a sequel

Rating: 10/10 (1 April 2020)

I found this movie extremely interesting. Todd Phillips and Joaquin Phoenix seemed to be so on point with how they wanted every scene in the movie to pan out. I really loved this movie start to finish. Every scene seemed carefully crafted with symbolism. It was simple yet complex. It was a movie that made you want to root for the bad guy.
The only thing I find unfortunate, is that this seems like as good as it's going to get. WB is not going to give Todd Phillips the freedom to continue what he did here again now that it has made so much money. Even if they did, would the magic of this film be recaptured? I want to see more but at the same time I don't think you will get anything better than what was made from this movie. Keep it pure and leave it as a one off movie.
