82 77% Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) - Rated 14 Apr 2024
"This movie is pure insanity. There are some strong performances, good action, and good visuals, and I think ultimately the story comes together in a good way, but oh man is it a wild ride to get there. Some of the wackiness is a bit much I think, but it's still fun. I do think at times it can become a little too distracting, making it harder to follow the main character's journey, but thankfully it wasn't so random that there wasn't an order to the chaos as I worried."
68 42% Idiocracy (2006) - Rated 11 Apr 2024
"I think the core concept is brilliant, and something I've always thought about in terms of the way natural selection works and how dumber people tend to have more kids than smarter people. I think the story has a bunch of funny moments, although some of the humor is in poor taste by today's standards. I think the weakness is that they focus a little too strongly on the dumbness of some characters, to the point of making them unlikable, and the story could be stronger."
98 97% Edge of Tomorrow (2014) - Rated 10 Apr 2024
"Honestly this is nearly a perfect movie. The editing is so well done and makes for some really funny moments as well as great action and story building. Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt are fantastic, the visuals and sound are great, and it's just a really cool idea and world. I love rewatching this. I also think the 3D was done really well."
78 70% Nobody (2021) - Rated 08 Apr 2024
"Fun movie. Basically the same concept as John Wick at its core, although with weaker motivations. Bob Odenkirk does a great job here, and the action is a lot of fun. Won't be as memorable as John Wick but it was still decent."
78 70% Aliens (1986) - Rated 04 Apr 2024
"I don't think it's the masterpiece everybody makes it out to be, and honestly I think the more suspenseful style of the original was a bit more effective on me. That being said, the sets, miniatures and alien effects are absolutely incredible work that holds up better than most of that kind of stuff from that era. It was an enjoyable expansion to the series, and I liked the dynamic between Ripley and Newt, but I think the other characters weren't as strong, and the story felt weaker to me."
99 98% Titanic (1997) - Rated 29 Mar 2024
"Basically a perfect movie. The production is absolutely incredible on this film, and Cameron has designed a really captivating story around this historical event, with great characters and great performances, and considering the time, the VFX still hold up particularly well for the most part. I also watched in 3D and the 3D was well done. Despite its length, you really don't feel it because of how well done the movie is. Well worthy of the success it had."
76 66% The Killing of Kenneth Chamberlain (2021) - Rated 25 Mar 2024
"Really tense movie and sad that this is a true story. Great performances all around. One I thought was especially good that people might not notice as much was the lady on the box who becomes increasingly worried and horrified at what is happening to this man because of a call they made. Although it does seem that was played up compared to the real recordings, same with the way Kenneth acts, but I understand why they did that."
75 63% Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire (2024) - Rated 24 Mar 2024
"Didn't impress me as much as the previous movie, although I preferred the setting in this movie as well as the original Ghostbusters appearing in more of the movie. Mckenna Grace is once again the standout star of the movie, although Emily Alyn Lind did a good job too and was an interesting character. I thought the climax felt a little rushed to me so I'm not sure what some people are talking about there. Overall a decent movie, but nothing that stands out much."
66 35% Killers of the Flower Moon (2023) - Rated 24 Mar 2024
"While it's well made, it's just a miserable movie. Personally, I have no issue with long movies, as long as the story justifies it. I see no reason this story had to be this long, and beyond that, so many of the characters in the movie are just unlikable. It is an interesting story, so I think it was worth watching once, but I definitely will have no interest in watching this again."
50 10% Baby Boom (1987) - Rated 17 Mar 2024
"Diane Keaton gave a great performance, but I just didn't enjoy the story. I think it especially goes south when she leaves the city. It feels like it doesn't really respect the character they had designed at the start, and has her just falling into a stereotypical female role instead, making her less interesting, and they just did a poor job making her new life look appealing on top of that."
