Pearl is a gem of a movie and I say that humbly. I’ve been a hater of A24 movies for the better part of a decade but they are changing my mind. Perhaps even opening my mind a bit with their very odd take on movies. In the beginning, I really couldn’t see why people would willingly purchase a ticket to one of their flicks, what a waste of money! This is me, Runpee Sis apologizing for all my trash-talk.
Let us jump back to X. That movie was the first glimpse for me that things with A24 were picking up. Pearl is a sequel to X, I actually had no idea but they were filming the two movies simultaneously. That makes sense to me now that I’ve seen them both. I sat there with my mouth hanging wide open for a better part of the movie. That gal had some issues. Watching those issues play out on the big screen was a fun time for everyone. There was never a moment that I got bored or lost interest, I was sad that it ended truth be told.

Read no further if you want everything to be a surprise to you. Now, this isn’t a spoiler for the movie but what comes after the movie…there is going to be another one. Yep, happy to report that the story isn’t done. I’ll be anxiously awaiting the next installment. Until then my friends, I hope you take a chance on Pearl.

About The Peetimes: There are 2 Peetimes to choose from. I’m going to recommend the 1st Peetime. The 2nd one is just for emergencies.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
