Taurus

Colton Baker is INCREDIBLE in this movie, he has an undeniable presence that is just so effortless and cool. Very rebel/rockstar vibes that was just so intriguing to watch. However, the movie was uneventful and kinda without any real plot. It just seemed like a day in the life of a drug addict rockstar. So if you don't mind that, it was a great watch! MGK really carried this movie with just his presence, he has this IDGAF attitude which is so intriguing with a bad boy, yet vulnerable side. Damn is he HOT when he's mad! Ok I'm done, 11/10 stars for MGK but movie-wise, maybe a 5/10, well acted and great scenes :)

The vibes I got from this film are intitled rocker with absolutely zero accountability. I've struggled with mental health my whole life & can resonate with deep pain but the self-centered, entitled attitude this man seems to have in this film is beyond comprehension. I can understand being raw and putting yourself out there but the only vibes I got from this film is that this person is clearly allowing their mental illness to completely take over their life and make exuses for every poor choice they decide to make. Most definitely no inspiration to be found in this film , more then just pure embarrassment of the toxic behavior exused simply by "I'm a rockstar " give me a break.

Have to admit I only watched this for MGK who I find mildly interesting. I don't like most of his music and if you go into this expecting to hear a bunch of his music, forget it, this movie is about one drug addicted star and their is little music to it. There isn't much of a story to it either, little character development, and it really just qualifies as a slice of life drama. In that instance it works. He's actually a fairly good actor even if he's not given much to do and that seems to be the main problem with this movie. There is no depth to it. We learn nothing about him, or really any of the characters. Maddie Hasson, who could be Florence Pugh's twin, steals the movie as the assistant. There are some well done and interesting scenes and the movie is well shot and scored. It comes across as a realistic look at one segment of the music and entertainment industry but it definitely needed more of everything, more plot, more drama, more dialogue, more background.

As was to be expected with a kind of auto biopic of Machine Gun Kelly, there wasn't a whole lot of drama or depth to create a detailed and intriguing story with. That being said the performance delivered still made it enjoyable and realistic. With a better script based around the more dramatic tales from the Rap scene this could've been great. Never the less, it was produced well and for a music fan, it doesn't disappoint. As a movie fan don't go into it with the highest expectations and you will be satisfied. The music component of the film with integration of a songs conception, mixing and finalisation throughout is an amazing concept, one that was delivered well and could be used to great effect in other projects. Overall I see the film as not great but is good and groundbreaking in some ways. When looking back in a few years, it will hopefully be an acting and film turning point in Colson's career.

Upper body half that 98% of the viewers will think Kurt Cobain when delving into this , lets call it '' riding the surf into eternity'' kind of sad socialrealismic drama called taurus...

the thumbs up for the 2 main actors, the explosive discussion in the studio is some of the best interaction ive seen ever, as well as rest of the cast, its colliding into a crystalclear revelation of sadness, pain and agony due to the force of stardome, the score leads you effectively into the abyss, and the outcome of the story is checked out allready from the start.

What draws some stars is outta some of the camera and soundwork, some camera-/-man-shadow here and there, and some closeups are hard to say, but what makes just a 7? Well the plotspeed, it dragsssss...

but if newbie stuff then its good, the actors definately delivers, and one thing the grumpy old is surtain about is that you will become sad and thoughtfull.
