Started watching Colossal thinking it would be an interesting sci-fi flick. Didn’t expect it to have a deeper storyline about female empowerment, abuse, addiction, and saving yourself.
Anyway, go watch it on Tubi. Completely surprised me.

actually needed to rewatch Colossal (2016) again bc it actually is a good film with a deeper meaning bc it explores themes of abuse, female empowerment, and the struggle for self-discovery :3

just watched Colossal (2016) and i think the thing i enjoyed about it the most (and that surprised me about it) was how well it seemed to flip the "new york socialite/business woman returns to her small hometown and falls in love with a simple down to earth guy" narrative, common in so many romcoms, on its head. obviously, the main focus is on recovery from alcoholism, but there's clearly other prominent themes at work here. more under the cut:
i've had another person tell me it feels like Oscar's evil turn part way through the film came out of nowhere, and it did for me too. but i think that's because the audience is being lulled into safety by these common tropes. the nice guy, helping Gloria get back on her feet by offering her friendship, a job, and furniture. and meanwhile, she's so detatched that she can't even remember most things about this small town she came from! >:( and he's been keeping track of her success too! wow! he must care a lot!
but, you see it, don't you? the way he's establishing control over a vulnerable woman through employment and favors. the way he keeps her vulnerable by enabling her alcoholism. the remote stalking of her, trying to keep tabs on her. the gaslighting. the way he reacts to the appearance of the creature in Soule, not with shock and dread but by mentioning off-hand how good it is for business at his bar. all of it was just cleverly disguised breadcrumbs hiding in plain sight until it's too late.
it reveals how much violent and abusive misogyny is behind these tropes that we take for granted, a conversation that has been getting more and more mainstream as time has gone on. for its problems, i honestly think it's a pretty clever film with fairly feminist messaging, especially for the time it came out. def recommended
our puppy looks soooo good, i cant
Mmmmm, watched Colossal again tonight and it is still very very good
But why
On Earth
Is it labeled as a comedy???
Not that it doesn't have some good funny moments, but this is not a sci-fi comedy or even a black comedy
This is a small personal drama with sci-fi/fantasy elements and a decent sense of humor
