The Grudge is a very cliche and very not good movie that held my interest because of its amazingly talented cast and interesting use of time. It weaves four mediocre stories together in a way that switches between feeling really clever, and super surface-level and rushed. But it was always watchable for me because each … Continue reading I Have a Bit of a Grudge With ‘The Grudge’ (2020) – Movie Review
Richard Jewell, Dark Waters, and The Report are three movies that I liked, but don’t know if I’m allowed to. This is because they are all movies based on real events that I know jack-shit about. So, I’m going to go through them one at a time and say why I liked them, and show … Continue reading My Review of Three “True Story” Movies That I Don’t Feel Qualified to Review (Richard Jewell, Dark Waters, and The Report)
I Lost My Body is a French animated romance film that heavily features a disembodied hand. I could not have been more excited. And it delivers. Tragically, most people associate animation with children's content. This is super sad, not only because these people are missing out on a lot of dope flicks, it's sad because … Continue reading I Lost My Body – Movie Review
This show is ballsy. Not because of the amount of balls you see, or the dope risks it takes with its story, or even its fascinating and layered political statements, Watchmen is ballsy because of how un-ballsy it seems at first. Somebody could watch the first few episodes and assume that it’s just a pretty … Continue reading HBO’s Watchmen: Series Review
If I was to imagine how director Sam Mendes pulled this movie off, even just for a few seconds, my mind would collapse into a puddle of goo. 1917 is a war film that is made to look like one shot. Welcome to Bonkers Town, Population: 1917. But Sam did it. That silly bastard did … Continue reading 1917 – Movie Review
The Lodge is riding on the wave of "high-brow horror" that movies like Hereditary, Get Out, and It Follows have created. But it is an impostor. It does not belong on that wave. It is hiding under a beautiful mask, but if you peel that off, what's left is a pretentious mess that has no … Continue reading “The Lodge” Makes Me Angry – Movie Review
Uh oh! Looks like we've got a big ol' slice of Fun on a Bun here! Courtesy of our good pal Rian Johnson. It is a wickedly fun and devilishly clever take on the whodunnit genre that is also a pretty sophisticated social commentary! But don't let that last part scare you, you can take … Continue reading Knives Out – Movie Review
The Irishman is a long-as-hell gangster movie, and I really didn't want to watch it. Even though it was a Scorsese flick, and I've loved every movie of his that I've seen, I really didn't want to watch a 3 1/2 hour movie that didn't look much different from the other gangster movies I've seen. … Continue reading The Irishman – Movie Review
It's good. I liked it. Very well shot. The acting is pristine. The screenplay is fine-tuned and impressive. ... I didn't enjoy watching it. That's my fault. I'm sorry. 9/10
The Lighthouse feels like an even weirder version of The Shining. And that's a very good thing. Like The Shining, The Lighthouse is a hypnotic and beautiful maze of a movie. It gives you so many different paths you can take on what the movie is about, but no single explanation feels less valid than … Continue reading The Lighthouse – Movie Review
