Omicron Persei 8

Passenger 57

A charmingly stupid movie which is endearingly 1990's. The degree to which everyone in the film including Tom Sizemore is falling over themselves to praise Wesley Snipes makes you feel like you're watching a blaxploitation Steven Seagal movie.

Hackers

One of the greatest movies of all time. Clearly, there is no bias or nostalgia associated with this objective evaluation. Incredible soundtrack, style, imagination, and a timeless relic of an unforgettable era of culture and technology. When the internet was cool.

Sound of Freedom

More than just a well-made movie, this is a critically important piece of cinema that you must see and share with others.

Barbarian

Fun movie, but I really hated all of the overtly woke toxic masculinity messaging. Literally every male in this movie is evil except for the crackhead who has his arm ripped off. This movie is a good example of how otherwise fun and interesting films are infected with post-modernist commentary on gender roles.

Jasper Mall

Authentic, heartfelt and somber depiction of local culture in Jasper, Alabama. This is a depressing film, not exactly a fun watch.

Ambulance

This movie is insufferably woke, insultingly stupid, and cliche beyond parody. Of course, it is directed by Michael Bay. These facts become apparent halfway through the movie but since I was on a transcontinental flight I watched this two hour long car crash of a movie to its conclusion. The progagonist is a cartoonish moral crusader bank robber who is as infalliable as he is completely unrealistic. His evil sidekick, played by Jake Gyllenhaal, is similarly of cartoonishly one-dimensional moral composition. Skip this movie unless you are nine years old, are a functionally retarded adult, or you think Crash is nuanced.

This is a great documentary because it does not fall into the easy trap of being cynical mean-spirited criticism, but is rather a series of reasonable questions being posed to unreasonable people. It's fascinating how there is such a concerted effort to characterize asking questions which the gender politics community prefers not to be voiced as "transphobic". There is a concerning social development happening in the West and this is an important film and subject of inquiry. Recommended.

Edit: Trakt has hidden this and other comments on this movie. Wasn't aware this was another censorious platform. That's discouraging.

Alice in Borderland

Great premise and interesting mystery at the beginning of this show, which is largely squandered as soon as the critical and mythologized "location" is revealed, at which point the show rapidly goes downhill. Still, I preferred this to Squid Game.

The Girl Next Door

One of the most absurd movies I've ever seen which is unintentionally hilarious. Like an adolescent homage to the 1994 Disney movie Blank Check.

Under Siege

One of the most fun action movies of the decade which is admittedly, as another commenter pointed out, somewhat a derivative of Die Hard. Steven Seagal did a ton of movies in the 90s but this is the best one. Tommy Lee Jones is a great villain and Seagal's character is... just a lowly, lowly cook.

Army of the Dead

This is the worst movie I have seen in a long, long time.

Assassination Nation

This movie is incredibly bad. I am really hard pressed to think of a movie which is more pretentious and contemptible than this one is.

Stowaway

An interesting premise spoiled by a melodramatic and half baked conclusion.

Sorry to Bother You

A heavy handed movie with almost no subtlety at all. Overrated.
