Fucking masterpiece is what it is.
I love the dancing in that film!
Donnie Darko. It was cool tho I had to ask my partner to explain what happened at the ending lol
This is legitimately one of my fave movies of all time
Was it the Director's Cut version? When the movie came out, a lot of arguably necessary content was accessible on the website. A few years later the DC version added title cards to provide some of the additional content you couldn't go online to find anymore. One of my favorite moves.
Ye it was the DC. My partner'd seen it before and I asked her if I should do the DC or not. She sorta shrugged her shoulders and was like "I guess probably?"
Hot Fuzz, very comedic and got intense in the last moments
Massive Talent - I loved it!
That was also mine, didn’t really have a clue about what it was going in (other than it had Nick Cage in) and enjoyed it pretty much all the way through, great movie!
When they're tripping in the car, I was laughing my ass off. That movie was way better than it had any right to be.
John wick surprised me in being an actual good movie. No brains whatsoever but nice action.
I just watched it too. Really enjoyed it over the second and third.
I felt they did a better job of setting the mood and scene than the previous ones.
The latest Dungeons and Dragons film. I've never played the game and know nothing of the lore but found it to be pretty enjoyable.
Same here, it was a pretty funny popcorn film
Been playing for 2 years and still know practically nothing about the lore but also found it pretty enjoyable.
Across the Spiderverse. So good. Highly recommend.
Agreed. I've only gone to the movies twice in the last 2-3 years and I am soo very glad I managed to drag the wife out for spiderman.
It was fantastic. Recency bias completely but I really do think it's better than the first.
Watched John Wick 4 last night with my wife. Keanu Reeves is a legend.
Spiderman ATSV
It was fuckin incredible, this trilogy is going to be one of those once in a lifetime trilogies, like the Matrix Trilogy or the Dark Knight Trilogy, you mark my words.
Can't wait for BTSV
Just saw this in the theater with my kids. I didn't know going in that they were setting up for a third one, so was kind of bummed when (mild spoilers) they left things unresolved at the end. Still an amazing movie.
The Banshee of Inisherin, I really enjoyed it. Very odd and funny in an uncomfortable, uneasy way. I especially enjoyed Kerry Condon as Siobhán, her performance was a great emotional counter point to the dead pan comedy between Colm and Pádraic.
Network (1976).
A prescient film that is just as relevant today as it was almost 50 years ago. A little monologue-y at times, but that's just the style.
A must watch film IMO, even just to see how prescient things can be.
Mulholland Drive
A strange masterpiece and artwork. Been thinking about it for a few days now.
I re-watched it recently after a number of years and was surprised at how more I liked it despite knowing the story (whatever it means) and how "weird it gets". Lynch has become one of my all time favs, especially after watching Twin Peaks recently and then Twin Peaks Season 3!!
Some of the best boob scenes in any movie too
Across the Spiderverse. I really like Mile's story... But I was a little disappointed by how slow paced the story seemed to be imo. Nothing got resolved. The whole movie was a lead up for the ending. Really disappointed with how the studio overworked artists (although that's par for the course these days) and how shitty the audio was before they finally fixed it. Music didn't live up to the first movie. The first movie has music that works great as stand-alone songs, but the second movie's soundtrack just sounds like a soundtrack.
I still enjoyed it though. I'd give the first movie a 9/10 and the second a 7/10.
My dad had on Starship Troopers earlier and it was definitely much scarier to me a decade ago. I cannot say it's the best sci-fi film I've ever seen, but it's pretty decent.
It's a pretty smart film in the context of when it was made and the political situation in the U.S. I remember when it was released a lot of people were pissed at it, it performed pretty poorly.
Guardians of the Galaxy 3, pretty good.
Asteroid City. It was... more meta than expected. Not so much breaking the forth wall as featuring the forth wall!
"check out this cool wall guys. Guys? Guys? GUYS! CHECK OUT THIS COOL WALL.
CHECK OUT THIS COOL WALL I FOUND GUYS"
The platform (2019) https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_platform
Its worth a watch if you like movies where people have to survive in crazy games like Cube, Squid game, Circle or similar.
Hm, I love the Platform, watched it twice, but I really wouldn't place it in the category of Cube or Squid Game. They aren't playing a game. It's much more similar to Snowpiercer.
la panna cotta es el mensaje
My girlfriend and I recently decided to watch every Arnold Schwarzenegger movie in order. We saw Hercules in New York this weekend. It was pretty amusing. They clearly shot all the mt Olympus scenes in central park because you can hear the traffic in the background and the occasional crying baby or what not.
Arnold is always a great choice. Commando has been one of my favorite films since it first came out on tape. Not an award-winning movie by any means, but it's sure fun to watch.
I watched Tokyo Drift and Fast X back to back. Finished Tokyo Drift and loved it, felt like an actual movie with 3 acts. I made it a bit over an hour into Fast X before quitting, I honestly don't know what I was expecting after the 9th one.
28 weeks later. Was recommend by Disney plus in the what to watch tonight section and I just went with it.
Overall it was an OK movie. A bit too constructed maybe. Would watch it again in a year or so.
The first one (28 days later) is significantly better than the sequel you watched
Yes, I've also watched 28 says later, but that was a couple of years ago. It's not available on disney+ though, so I can't watch it again
Just a great great first scene though!
The first scene is absolutely amazing.
I didn't enjoy the rest, however ... there's a few dumb decisions that were made like most horror movies that made me not enjoy it.
That first scene though, I've seen it like 20 times it's so good.
Have you seen 28 days later beforehand?
The last one I saw in theaters was Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. It was gorgeously animated and detailed, and I'm excited for Beyond the Spider-Verse.
Last night I torrented a camrip of The Flash. It wasn't terrible, but the ending kinda dissappointed me. (I'm not sure how to put spoiler tags on Lemmy, so for now I'll just leave this comment as it is.)
Last one I really liked was Valerian. Kind of a hokey sci-fi, but good story and engaging. I actually liked the lead characters a lot.
Last one I can't believe I watched was John Wick 4. I mean I knew what it was going to be like. Was almost three hours long with thirty minutes of actual story, the rest just shooting and fighting, but I had to see it, just like the three before it.
One thing that was really cool about John Wick 4 is there's a set of scenes where he's driving a 1971 Plymouth 'Cuda. I had that exact car with all the performance options except the Hemi engine (had a 440 six pack engine). It's by far the favorite of all cars I've owned. I found it in the mid 80's wasting away in a garage and restored it. To this day I think I should have kept it, found a way to store it properly. The whole time I was thinking don't you dare destroy that car, but it looks like they CG'd all the crashes. I'm sure the owner would never let them damage that priceless car.
12 angry men. The 1957 version. It was an amazing watch and I can definitely see why it's one of the highest rated movies of all times.
Not sure whether I should watch the remake though. Not sure about some things that it decided to go with.
The Russian remake is different, and also awesome. 2007 film called "12"
Fall (2022). The concept is pretty simple: Two women climb a TV tower and are stuck at the top. Before watching it I thought: How are they going to make a movie out of that? Well, they did and it was better than I would have expected. If you like those movies with a limited cast and set and without much action, I can definitely recommend it.
Shorter is not necessarily better: "THE Fall" from the early 2000s was a much better value-per-minute movie. :P
I love that movie, it's so beautifully shot.
As a former climber that film made me angry
Got that on my Netflix list, I really ought to give it a watch. Maybe tonight.
Clueless. It's one of the few films I can actually sit and watch all the way through at home. Witty, campy 90s fun. The fact it's actually an adaptation of Emma by Jane Austen is the icing on the cake.
I know you can be overwhelmed and you can be underwhelmed, can you just be whelmed?
Decided to re-watch the hobbit trilogy to see if they were as bad as I remember them being. Whilst there were some scenes I thought were well done (Bilbo's conversation with smaug for example) the films just aren't good in the way the Lord of the Rings movies are. The LOTR movies feel properly epic and the hobbit movies just feel so "Hollywood" for lack of a better term. All the fight scenes are stupid with excessive cgi but the worst part I feel is the acrobatics of them all with characters leaping off scenery and twirling around whilst slicing up enemies. None of the battles feel "real" or realistic in the way they do in LOTR. The dialogue in the hobbit movies also suffers from what feels like Joss Whedon-esque script writing with tons of witty quips and "humorous" observations on the situation.
Have you seen any of the fan edits? They're limited by the source material obviously but you can do a lot with just cutting out all the unnecessary nonsense.
I have not. I thought about finding one of the fan edits that remove a ton of filler and so cut the 3 movies into 1 very long one but the pacing of the films wasn't my main complaint with them. There are totally scenes I would have been happy to have been cut and whilst that would have been an improvement, I just disliked so much of the actual movie part of the movies and I don't see how any fan edit could polish that turd into something I would happily re-watch over and over again like I do frequently with the LOTR movies (and don't get me wrong I still have some minor gripes with those movies too - such as how Faramir's interactions with Sam and Frodo differ from the books and how they turned Gimli into comedic relief for most of his scenes). But (despite being high fantasy) LOTR always feels real. The characters aren't just flanderised and walking one-liner machines. The battles are brutal and grounded in reality and don't feature any of this cinematic bullshit (goatshit?)
They truly are some of the greatest disappointments of our cinematic era. So much hype for nothing. The Hobbit and Game of Thrones will outlive most movies and shows culturally just based on how badly they were received
I mean, the hype when Del Toro was on the film and they were gonna split it into only two films to fill in the surrounding story ... that was highest hype that ever deflated hard, at least for me.
I liked The Hobbit and GoT. Furthermore I liked the higher framerate when I saw The Hobbit in a theater which was showing the higher framerate. 🤷
The terminal; always a good movie! I watched it multiple times now, but this one never gets old.
John Wick 4. Seemed like 2 uninterrupted hours of people shooting one-another in the face. I only made it 30 minutes.
Isn't that the appeal of the series though?
I watched the whole, but spoiler alert, you didn't miss much
It was probably a bit minimal in the story department, but I thought the cinematography was outstanding, especially in the last hour or so. That one-shot sequence in the building was probably one of my favourite sections in any movie I've seen recently.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
I liked it, and it seemed like a good way to show characters changing without actual growth.
Flesh Gordon.
No that isn't a typo.
Yes it is exactly what you think.
Yes it is hilariously bad.
My lord, do I want to google that one or stay far away from it?
Haha only you can make that decision, it's a 70's porn parody of Flash Gordon, there is sex and nudity but it's honestly pretty tame compared to today's porn. It's more silly than anything, silly with boobies.
Where'd you watch it? I've never been able to find it streaming anywhere.
Not streaming, torrented it. I think it's on Soulseek but I can't check rn.
watched Renfield yesterday. was pleasantly surprised. nothing too deep and meaningful but quite entertaining.
I just spent ten minutes attempting to remember. I did not remember but, whatever it was, it was "meh".
Extraction 2 was a lot of fun. The story was kind of a predictable action movie but man, the camerawork and stuntwork was superb.
The 21 minute long one-take... Chef's kiss
Just watched it last night. That one-er was truly glorious.
Then at the end of the next action sequence, Hemworth seemed to me, to just appear on the roof with no know way of getting there. Did I miss something? Or was this one of the very few genuine examples of a actual plot hole.
Heat....rewatched it for the nth time. One of the all time great crime movies.
Charlie Day's new movie Fools Paradise!
If you like always sunny you'll have a good time spotting cameos from like, everyone.
I really enjoyed the film, but my family wasn't digging it and I could definitely see why.
Underwater. 2020 horror movie that takes place - you guessed it - underwater. It wasn't bad, just kinda mediocre. It was pretty action packed, and the effects weren't bad, but I never really felt for any of the characters, and I thought the monster(s) were underdeveloped and poorly utilized. Still, not a bad way to waste an hour-and-a-half.
Same movie for me and same impression too. Not sure if the monster's were even necessary. Also it had more of a "run away from the explosion" vibe than a "oh this uboat is about to implode" vibe. But I can confirm it is ok-ish.
Edit: That's crazy. I've looked at your profile since I thought it's a funny coincidence. I've also lived in South Korea for a while and I've also used Pop OS in the past. Really interesting. May I ask what you are doing in Jeju-Do?
Repo! The Genetic Opera. It's a rock opera horror set in a dystopian future where organ repossession is a thing. I enjoyed it and might even add it to my background noise rotation.
Oh man Repo is an absolute gem, I've watched it more times than I care to admit.
Ice Age 6(?) with my daughter watching on repeat. I couldn't help but immediately notice that the voice actors were discount versions of the original actors (no shade to them considering what they had to work with). 1/10 would highly recommend this masterpiece.
Fast X. It's gone off the rails.
I went into it expecting it to be over the top, with a weak story, crazy twists.. but holy shit.
Evil dead. It was entertaining.
I watched a night to remember the 1958 movie about the Titanic. It's out this morning on YouTube remastered with color. Phenomenal movie, there's actually no fictional characters or fictional side plot, it's basically just a docu drama. Most of it focuses on the most senior surviving staff member who had a pretty wild story of survival that night.
"You Hurt My Feelings" I loved David Cross.
Marcel the Shell with Shoes on
A refreshing, slow paced and very touching "fictional-documentary" about the little microcosm of a shell with shoes and how he discovers what's beyond. Its based on three YouTube short films from 2010-2012 made by the director. Highly recommend both the short and the feature.
Fittingly, it also touches on the feeling many of us had when first discovering the Internet. For me, that's also what's happening right now on Lemmy again (a tiny bit).
Coincidentally, I just went down the rabbit hole of the A24 production company. Very cool film-makers behind some of my most recent favourite flicks, including Marcel the Shell with Shoes on!
Just watched Monsters, Inc. It's great, the ending is really sweet too. I miss old Pixar ;(
One of my favorite movies of all time. It's so creative and charming. It has aged very well, I think.
The Flash, mildly funny, awful awful CG, the most interesting bit was spoiled in the trailer, I’ll never watch it again. 2/5
Over the years I've learned not to watch any trailers if it's a movie I'm interested in watching. They seem to want to give the whole movie away in them these days.
Just finished "smoking causes coughing" which is a weird french movie that goes in weird directions. I don't know whether there's a term for gore comedy? This is that in places
To Leslie
Loved it. The lead actress was fantastic and it’s no surprise that she was nominated for an Academy Award.
Just watched Greta Gerwig's Little Women, it was quite enjoyable.
The DnD movie and it was great! Jarnathan 🙄
Free Solo
Impressive what some people can handle.
Avatar: The Way of Water
I liked it. Not much happens story wise but I love exploring the lore and stuff of Pandora.
I watched Despicable Me with the kids recently - for the very first time - and was pleasantly surprised. It was actually good fun!
Turbo kid. It’s a gory mess covered in 80s nostalgia.
I really enjoyed this one!
I rewatched for the third time what we do in the shadows (2014), I love the quirky humor and the mockumentary type of filming
I watched Django Unchained by Quentin Tarantino yesterday for the first time, after being in my list for so long.
Such a masterpiece. Lengthy, but it gives it enough room to have a nice pacing. Great photography and dialogue, of course. One of Tarantino's best, imo.
Just finished Blue Velvet. Very David Lynch. I think I may have changed a few things; Jeffrey should have picked up the knife Dorothy dropped, for instance. You could see some of the influence on later works like Lost Highway and Twin Peaks. I went in with no idea what I was going to see, and as might be expected it was twisted.
Good Time I liked it the end was pretty sad
fantastic movie. you seen uncut gems?
Yeah I watched it a while ago was surprisingly good
Star Trek: The Motion Picture. I've seen it before but watched it with friends, including one who had never seen it, after consuming edibles and had fun with it even though it's slow and cheesy.
The Bad Guys (animated kids film) with my kids for any the 6th time I think. Still pretty good.
Was it better or worse than the 5th time?
Still very watchable actually. The voice acting is spot on. And my kids still laugh at it which helps.
Finally got around to watching Stalker last night! Partner and I both really loved it. Absolutely deserves the legacy it has, it explores so many philosophical and existential questions but still stays incredibly clear. Would recommend wholeheartedly if you're in the mood for a slow paced philosophical/psychological sci-fi.
Everything Everywhere All At Once (for the second time) and it's even better the second time.
I feel bad because I just couldn’t get into this. I’ve seen all the praise but I just don’t think it’s for me.
undefined> Everything
Watching a second time helped. It's a movie that throws a lot at you all at once and then sort of grabs you by the neck and drags you along. But I liked that. And of course, everything isn't for everyone all of the time. Plenty of fish in the sea.
Transformers 1
I like that one. The rest, not so much.
Saw a movie at the museum about some projects Jane Goodell knows of that keeps her optimistic about the state of the world and the ecosystem. Really uplifting and motivating, made me want to start volunteering and trying to make a difference
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Friends of mine were hyped for Across the Spider-Verse and that was my opportunity to go watch the first with them. If you're an animation nut, then yeah, this movie is brilliant for that. A very fun movie, definitely going to pick up the Blu-Ray when I pop to HMV in the future.
spoilers for Into + Across the Spider-Verse
I did get a new unexpected favourite character, and it was the movie's version of Sp//dr Robot from the Peni Parker version of Spider-Man. Such a great robot design, and I was pretty gutted when it got destroyed in the final fight. Even moreso, I was spoiled on Across the Spider-Verse where they apparently used the comic book design which, ngl, disappointed me a bit. I'm apparently in the minority here but, eh whatever.
Spiderman: ATSV. It was so good.
The last movie I watched was the latest Shazam movie. One of the kids picked it to watch during their birthday dinner. I know it didn't do well critically but I think it's a fun popcorn movie.
The day prior to that we saw Guardians of the Galaxy 3 in the theater (another birthday pick). A bit predictable (I'm honestly burned out on Marvel movies) but overall enjoyable and a comic book movie origin story that wasn't a retread (i.e. Spiderman, Batman, Superman) we've seen 100x before.
Midnight Special with Michael Shannon, it was very enjoyable.
Blackberry. It is awesome
I watched 20 minutes of Moonfall. 20 minutes because it was full of cliches and cringe. Then I watched a YouTube video of Action Adventure Twins who explore deep, unsettling and claustrophobic caves. It was wayy better.
moonfall felt like i was being scammed in real time. not a good movie but if you like talking about the flaws of a film then it is pretty rich
Glorious - a film about a man's interaction with an other dimensional being he finds in a rest stop bathroom. Very weird, but refreshingly interesting. I didn't know what was going to happen next throughout the whole movie, which was is a change compared to most movies these days. I'd give it an 8/10 overall.
Into the Spiderverse at cinema! It really really blew me away, the visuals, the music, the plot. Honestly an experience. One of the few movies I'd really recommend to watch on cinema (alongside the LOTR movies)
27th May - Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian.
It was alright, good film you can put on and zone out to. I wasn't actively watching it out was in the background while I was visiting family.
I know when and what it was cause I keep a list of every film I watch, the day I watched it, and if it's the first time I've seen it. The last new film I've seen was Rio 2, same date and same occasion.
Have been doing this for many years and thought I'd lost a couple years of data when Google decided to update the notes app and all my archived lists vanished, but I retrieved a backup (luckily)
Werewolf of London (1935) - a solid werewolf movie for the period, but with no surprises in the plot - and without a lot of the 'standard' lore that developed around the time.
Chiefly notable, I thought though, in showing a surprisingly independent woman in a failing marriage (failing due to her husband being a werewolf...) and in portraying a drunken upper-middle class woman (and contrasting that with fairly stereotypical drunken working class women). Warner Oland features in one of his many bizarre yellow-face roles too.
Just prior to that I went to a 50th anniversary screening of The Wicker Man (1973), which was as great as ever.
The new Flash movie. I really like it, seemed pretty well-thought-out, had some pretty funny bits, and lots of nostalgia. The CGI was a big meh, some parts good, some parts just too cheesy.
I watched Sick (2022), the story was about normal/average for a slash-horror, but the action scenes themselves were surprisingly well shot. It was written by the same writer of the original Scream movies.
I just watched Akira (finally) and it was great, finally dime cyberpunk where there is no SEX SEX, HERE SEX HERE!
I rrwatched for like the 10th time Star Wars in order, got to a New Hope so far. It just reminded me of how good the core story writing for Lucas was even if the dialog can be clunky at times. Luke really reminded me of padma's strong believes in goodness and anakin's raw power potential. It made me appreciate the prequels more and I am so excited for the empire strikes back and then capping star wars with return of the jedi.
Last I saw was Tàr in the cinemas when it came out. I liked it, not a lot, but I liked it and defended it against my partner who didn't think much of it.
But I haven't had a film fade away in my mind as much as this, where I went from liking it, to kind of forgetting it and eventually criticising it, just passively as my mind mulled over the film.
When it came time for the Oscars I accurately predicted it wasn't going to win anything because I suspected I wasn't alone in this feeling ... that others would eventually feel like maybe it was just technically good and not actually about much.
Weird - The weird Al Yancovic Movie
It was something...
The weird al movie will always be UHF to me
The Covenant and Trial by Fire
Both were good.
Knock at the Cabin
Not M. Night's best work. I'm not a particular fan anyway, but here's my micro-review. The love story was touching, but didn't wrestle a tear out of me. You can tell from the flashbacks that the writers spent a lot of time thinking about the main characters, but there's not enough screen time dedicated to developing them.
Most of the screen time is spent highlighting two or three perdictable jump scares, and many minutes of bad attempts to build suspense. The religious dogma is boring. If you're going to include that as the premise of your thriller, then at least get creative.
Bautista is the best part and that's saying something.
EDIT: The twist, if you can call it that, is more of a mild tale of morality about how things aren't always what they seem. Blair Witch 2 had a better "twist" and it was one of the worst movies I've ever had to suffer through.
Watched the new ant man and i honestly thought it was a lot better than the reviews gave it credit for. The cg was pretty bad though.
Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2. Before watching it I was sceptical of its immaculate reputation among those who enjoy bad movies, but I am happy to report that it did not disappoint in the least.
Saw Elemental on Friday. Wasn't bad. Nice message. I didn't catch the whole controversy about pronouns though. 🤷♂️
Ator 2 - the invincible. It's complete garbage but that was to be expected as it was an episode of Schlefaz so it was a shit movie but a fun watch!
Dino Dana: The Movie. It was about what I expected. Fun for the kids and not bad for adults either.
I didn't know that was a thing. I'll have to find that one and give it a go
I recently joined in on the MCU Crew's watch-along for Iron Man 3. It was marginally better than I remembered but I still have issues with the one reveal, all the fake out deaths, as well as the entirety of the final action scene.
Arielle - not bad. Most of the songs were still great. Eric's standalone was incredibly weaksauce though. Triton's casting and makeup was fucking S Teir. I thought making all the daughters different races somewhat based on the seven seas was a clever handwave for the diversity injection. I also liked how Eric was no longer just a pretty face but he and Arielle shared a common curiosity and passion for exploration. I mean it's still a pretty shaky story but it's also definitely an upgrade.
Renfield! I loved it. It was a nice silly distraction from, y'know life. If you like horror comedies, like Cabin in the Woods or Tucker and Dale Vrs Evil I can't recommend Renfield enough.
I think the first Spiderverse movie, if I remember correctly. It was great, it set a new standard for animation in general.
Dragon Ball Super: Super Heroes. I loved it!
Pusher 3, completing Nicolas Refn's trilogy. All three films were great and I can't believe I'd never heard of them until recently. Each provides a kind of day in the life perspective of someone involved in the Danish drug trade (circa '96-'05). Kim Bodnia, Mads Mikkelsen, and Zlatko Buric...great films!
Watching the Tanya the Evil movie. Enjoying it so far, especially the jokes about the communists.
The Banshees Of Inisherin.
It was like finding razorblades if you are in a really razorblade-y kinda mood.
Gravity. Meh...
It grinds my gears that the sole idea to create tension is the presence of stray ropes. And slinging objects. 🥱
That, and Sandra Bullock's heavy breathing got way too annoying for me.
Love and Basketball. A good movie, but has a bit of 2000s baggage. There aren't any good dad role models in that movie
Nefarious.
It was definitely a nice twist on your typical demonic possession film, but I expect given that it's basically an hour and a half of two men talking it wouldn't go down well with your typical horror audience.
Could have done with a bit more mystery and a bit less telegraphing what was going to happen, but it was still an enjoyable time and the lead actor was great.
Recommend for anyone who likes their horror to lean closer to psychological thriller territory than the low-effort "just fill it full of screech noises and jump scares" fare.
The VelociPastor. It was trying to be bad in an entertaining way. For me, the self-awareness helped a little, but not nearly enough. I just did not enjoy watching it. The concept had promise, but the execution did not work for me.
Lost Highway
Been on a bit of a Lynch binge since a cinema near me did a double bill of Inland Empire and Mulholland Drive, and Lost Highway is one I've not seen for ages. I'd forgotten how intense it is. Loved it though.
The Godfather, it was great again. After The Offer TV series
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, pretty good movie in the Harry Potter universe without all the school of magic theme.
Love this movie and all it's quirks.
The Little Mermaid (2023). It was mediocre. My main issue is its pacing -- it moved slooooooowly. Almost all of the underwater scenes were rather dark, as well, which took away some of the whimsy (I guess? Not sure what word is right here). Still, the pacing was the main negative.
The Flash was way better than expected
Asteroid City rocks. Wes Anderson keeps improving. Go see it
Saw Asteroid City last night. Liked it a lot but it's not my favorite Wes Anderson movie. It is, thought, the most Wes Anderson movie imaginable.
