Begin Again (2014) - Rated 13 Aug 2025
"Do I want to hear Keira Knightley sing? Not really. Do I want to hear Adam Levine sing? Not really. Do I want to see Adam Levine act? No. There's no story here. Just cameos from "The Voice" judges. Yay."
The Music Man (1962) - Rated 11 Aug 2025
"This is the worst musical I've ever seen. Half-way through I thought: "Oof...this is terrible...but since it's a Best Picture nom I'll power through 'til the end." I couldn't do it. "Lida Rose" with the barbershop quartet...that was the last straw for me. Imagine you're writing a Broadway production. You can set your play anywhere in the known universe. In ancient Rome 2000 years ago, or on the moons of Jupiter in 2499. And you choose...1912 rural Iowa? WTF?"
Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story (2024) - Rated 11 Aug 2025
The Man in the Moon (1991) - Rated 09 Aug 2025
"Good, natural performance from a young Reese Witherspoon. The story is a very small one though, felt more like a TV episode than a movie. Terrible title."
The Joy Luck Club (1993) - Rated 09 Aug 2025
"The individual stories of three dozen women, all trying to survive oppressive Chinese culture. Half of them kill themselves. The other half murder their children. File under the film genre: "sad people being sad"."
Madame Tutli-Putli (2007) - Rated 09 Aug 2025
"I did not enjoy Madam Totally Poopy."
Chasing Chasing Amy (2023) - Rated 09 Aug 2025
"I thought this would be about how "Chasing Amy" is not a perfect reflection of the LGBT community 3 decades later ("Cis male? Boooo!"). Glad to see that it was the perfect film for some LGBT folk when it was released."
Funny Girl (1968) - Rated 07 Aug 2025
""Why did you tell me you could rollerskate?!" "I didn't know I couldn't!" That line was the highlight for me. I didn't like any of the songs and lost complete interest in the second half as it devolved into a dreary drama."
Together (2025) - Rated 06 Aug 2025
"Pretty good Cronenberg meets Junji Ito body horror about relationships."
Duck, You Sucker (1971) - Rated 05 Aug 2025
"Oh it's sloooooooooooooooooooow. Somewhere in the second half I realized I'd rather go to bed early than finish it."
