Josh:
I read on here that the short running time “flies by,” but Poser just kind of flutters around, and never lands, generously stopping short of parody, threatening to capture something, but eventually ditching any semblance of sincerity to ill-advisedly drag its pretty, semi-conscious self into a half-assed cautionary tale/genre exercise. ⏰⏰

Nothing about this film makes sense because we never learn anything about Lennon other than that she’s insecure, and—while it attempts to go deeper by showing us both the literal and figurative masks we wear—by portraying Lennon as a poser-turned-sudden-sociopath, the film drowns out any message about identity and self-hatred it may have started out with. ⏰⏰
