Platoon

A really great war film that's truly devasting I love how we see the effect on the characters just as much as the effects of the actual war. Both are shown just the right amount of time to show the effect of the war. Charlie Sheen is really good and Willem Dafoe is great.

Sorry to Bother You

Definitely one of the weirdest movies i've ever seen but the more I think about it the more this movie impresses me it ain't easy to stay in someones head long after you see the movie so props on that to this movie. I liked that this movie had guts and wasn't afraid to be different. Don't know anything before watching this if you can and just go along with the ride.

The Breakfast Club

This movie holds up so well, which is why it's a classic this movie is so good and no matter where you go or went to school there's those stereotypes and this movie explores those different stereotypes all interacting with each other and sharing common issues. The nostalgia with this movie definitely helps but nonetheless this movie is incredible kinda wish {spoiler} they didn't couple in the end but that's really my only flaw with the movie.

Phenomenal performance by Glenn Close. Good movie, good message, nothing really spectacular.

The First Purge

Good premise for a 4th/1st movie in a franchise didn't execute the best but had good action some jump scares although they weren't really scary and one comedic character pretty much on the same level as the other purge movies

The French Dispatch

Maybe the most Wes Anderson of the Wes Anderson films. This movie is very artistic and obviously beautifully shot and when it comes to camera angles, music, and just creativity nobody does it like Wes Anderson. This movie features pretty much every actor you have ever seen in any of his films and that many characters makes it hard to care about the characters. Great acting and great storytelling for each part of the movie but the movie has 3 parts or 3 stories and they don’t all mesh very well which makes you a little confused as a watcher and bored even after a while. As a directing pov this movie is fabulous but writing and the plot in general leaves more to be desired.

Pokémon Detective Pikachu

As someone who has never had any interest or connection with Pokemon or pokemon charcters I can still say this is an enjoyable movie. I think this will be really fun movie for die hard pokemon fans but most of the intrigue came from Ryan Reynolds for me. All of the pokemon charcaters look good, and humor is a big part of this movie and they're are constant jokes made it dosen't really come off as trying to hard even tho they were trying hard. Ryan Reynolds carries this movie with his voicework because this movie dosen't really work without him, but still a fun movie that can be enjoyed.

American Wedding

This movie can be difficult to watch at times, but also has it's moments. Although this movie is at it's best when it's not a trying to be a comedy because the humor in this film is just unoriginal, lazy, and just not funny anymore for a third film in the franchise. Surprisingly it has it's sweet moments but still a mess that could easily be skipped.

Closer

This was a film that I was expecting to love but really didn't. I don't dislike this film at all I actually think it's a great film with phoneomeal performances and can very very real but also unrealistic at the same time.

East of Eden

James Dean was a true talent, and his acting is always superb this is a really great film that has a few plotpoints that don't circle around all the way but that's my only problem with this film because when this film is at it's best it's hard to dislike anything about it.

Brokeback Mountain

Really sad but beautiful film Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal, Anne Hathaway, and Michelle Williams are all great.

Suspiria

I love this movie the score is so good probably one of my favorite scores in any movie that alone can make the movie tense or scary and sets up the movie really well with how you should feel right off the bat. The story isn't the strongest thing in this movie but the ending is amazing.

Hot Summer Nights

Was hoping for more out of Chalamet and A24 teaming up but overall decent movie although the movie dosen't seem to be sure on what it wants to be or what it's message is.

Bad Times at the El Royale

Very interesting movie with unique concept and a terrific cast. Acting is all good, cinematography is great, but overall the movie was a bit slow and gave me no reason to love the movie.

mid90s

Jonah Hill's directorial debut in Mid90s was a really good one if u ask me an interesting project with an nostalgic vibe, really enjoyed being around the charcters and seeing their point of views on things. Interested to see where Hill goes from here.

Very interesting movie with unique directing style. Movie is very captivating and intense draws you in not sure how it would have been with normal directing almost would like to see an alternate version with normal camerawork, wasn't a huge fan of the ending but still a very good movie.

Horrible Bosses 2

Sorry but I like this movie, maybe I like bad comedy or whatever but I laughed a lot at this movie. Not as original as the first Horrible Bosses obviously but still funny at least I thought. I mean not much different from the first one by the fact that the cast is what makes the movie good just their interactions and their chemistry carry the movie first one just had a better concept and was fresh breathe of air where as this one breathes the same air which isn't always bad.

The Favourite

Great performances by Olivia Coleman, Emma Stone, and Rachel Weisz. Good storytelling and good plot with support from great talent, kept my attention. Yorgos Lanthimos is becoming one of my FAVOURITE directors.

Half Nelson

Painfully real, it's a very touching story and with great preformances all around espically Ryan Gosling and does a great job getting the audience to care about the characters.

Somewhere in Queens

An amazing directing debut from Ray Romano in which he gives us this beautifully crafted simple story about family, sacrifice, and love. This movie feels so real and everybody in it gives a great performance. Also an amazing story about the relationship of basketball between a father and son.

Coherence

What the fuck. Coherence is a small budget mind fuck where weird things start happening all due to a commit passing by. As the night passes by more and more weird things keep happening which the group tries but struggles to understand and that’s all I want to say about the plot. I would recommend going in as blind as you can this is a small film with big ideas and damn is it good. This movie fucks with ur brain and leaves u thinking. I finished this movie and couldn’t go to sleep because of the way my mind was running.

Don't Worry Darling

Don’t Worry Darling is a high concept movie that doesn’t meet everything it sets up and that’s fine. This movie is far from perfect but is it as bad people are saying? No not even close this movie if it had a good reputation I feel like it would get a lot more love. The setting is amazing it is beautifully shot and some scenes just look amazing. Florence Pugh is amazing and everyone else does just fine nobody sticks out as bad but nobody sticks out as good besides Pugh. It has a lot going on and a lot of that never fully gets explained and even after searching and finding the answers u still find that the movie failed you a bit if that’s what it was aiming for. This movie is far from perfect but it can be really enjoyable. I for one see it’s flaws and still enjoy it and think it would be good on rewatch the flaws will still be there but so will the high concept with so much ambition, the beautiful cinematography, and music and a twist that is twist…

Get Out

What a film. This was my third viewing of Get Out and the best viewing yet. Jordan Peele is such a masterful director with every single thing feeling so perfectly selected and executed. Each song, the score, the subtle way characters act, how easy it is to know what is happening especially on rewatch but still be on the edge of your seat. This movie has the perfect runtime and is perfectly paced. It makes you nervous but also makes you laugh and maybe has the best protagonist in any horror movie. Chris never does anything extremely dumb that makes you mad at the character he handles every situation as you would like to think you would in the same situation. Just a masterpiece and one of the best horror films ever made.

Do Revenge

Twist, after twist, after twist with most of those being cliché and predictable. I have seen a lot of high school/coming of age films and this movie feels like that one big scene from all of those done all in one movie. This film tries so hard to appear flashy and memorable but it comes off unoriginal and forgettable.
