Jamie Lee Curtis is officially obsessed. After watching Sinners in glorious 70mm IMAX, the Halloween and The Fog star — and Oscar winner for Everything Everywhere All at Once — took to Instagram with a rave that reads more like a love letter to cinema itself.
“I can't stop thinking about it. Watching the movie in 70mm IMAX had a profound effect. It's the cinematic art form on the grandest scale,” she wrote, adding that “great art makes you think and want to dig deeper and learn more.” For Curtis, it wasn't just the story — it was the totality: “The complexities and intricacies of the filmmaking and every choice from the history and story to the visuals to the music all stay with you way, way, way after seeing it.”
She’s already planning repeat viewings, saying she intends to see it again and again. Curtis expressed how thrilled she was by the audience’s enthusiastic response and their recognition of the film’s originality and craftsmanship. For her, the appreciation shown for the artistry in every frame made Sinners truly unforgettable.
Directed by Ryan Coogler, Sinners centres on a cloistered nun plagued by visions that unravel a decades-old murder within the convent. With visuals reminiscent of Bergman and a chilling score by Hildur Guðnadóttir, the film plays like a prayer and a scream rolled into one. Critics agree — Sinners holds a 98% Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and is quickly becoming 2025’s most talked-about cinematic revelation.
