SPOILER WARNING FOR ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHERAside from Stanley Kubrick, Paul Thomas Anderson is my favorite director. That's because this movie is an action thriller, and PTA does not do action thrillers. All of these surprised me since I didn't know PTA had it in him to make a semi-political action thriller, but now that I know he does, I want more of it! So, if you're reading this, PTA, please make another action thriller! You're really good at it!
