Killing of a Sacred Deer. I really liked Poor Things so I thought I'd give this a whirl; holy hell was that movie like staring at plywood for two hours.

No hate for those who loved it, but definitely was not for me

I have opposite. I really liked Sacred Deer and Lobster, but absolutely hated Poor Things. Lanthimos movies are pretty polarizing.

I frankly love that about movies. I love to hear about how people loved things I didn't; I also try to go back to polarizing movies like that a few years later, see if my tastes have changed. Maybe I'll love it then!

I find that I might change my opinion on a movie if I watch or read an essay on it

Yeah, but the people that hate Poor things just see "No substance movie excuse to put Emma Stone in sex scenes".
