It makes me sad so few people would end up watching this gem. I was thinking the other day, considering how otherwise mediocre movies like Birdbox etc become suddenly viral phenomena...may be small, high content movies like Destroyer or Boy Erased would have gotten more traction had they been handled by Netflix. I know Netflix was interested in distributing Boy Erased. What are your thoughts?

I know Netflix was interested in distributing Boy Erased. What are your thoughts? Boy erased would have benefited from a simultaneous netflix and theatrical release. It definitely would have reached a wider audience, its currently number 1 on Rotten tomatoes streaming movies. Destroyer I believe it's rollout and marketing was botched by Annapurna.

OMG Annapurna has expanded Destroyer from 77 to 235 theaters the widest its ever been in the US. the PTA was already pretty mediocre last weekend, the good news is that atleast more people will have an opportunity to watch this film, the bad news will they?
fingers crossed the PTA doesn't take a beating, but if it follows previous weeks trends it will drop.

We need TV ads and social media paid promos!!!

Its sounds like she likes it but then concludes saying even if a film falls short Kidman doesn't disappoint. she might have accidentally categorized it as a rotten review.

I feel like I'm beating a dead horse with Destroyer box office, but let this be the last update
That 997 PTA is not good. So Destroyer hasn't had a good run at the box office unfortunately.

I know it's really unfortunate... I kept looking at the box office numbers, it's not doing good at all. Oh well, at least it brought Kidman some of her best reviews in years, and a golden Globe nomination. On the other hand Aquaman and the upside are doing great...

I'm so happy she did Destroyer, to me this film and performance is a companion piece to "Birth".

So I went and see Destroyer last friday night, as you can see in the picture above eheh the movie isn't great, but it's interesting, and better than a big number of movies that Nicole has done. SPOILERS Her performance here is just great and I think it could even be better if the direction was more coherent if I may say this. She shines in every scene she is in, but for example there is a scene when Erin screams in a very raw way, but the camera is all over the place and we can't really see her face and her expressions, but in the scene that she is talking with her daughter is just pure Nicole talent and it gave me the shivers, her look is just... OMG! So in general I liked the movie and it is one of the best performances by Nicole, without a doubt!
