| 93 90% | Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1 (2024) - Rated 01 Sep 2024
"This movie just kicks ass through and through. It seems very hard to keep up with at first, but a second watch is warranted."

| 92 88% | Pleasantville (1998) - Rated 25 Aug 2024
"A film that is a bit blunt with its messaging, yet smart enough to inject some subtleties to leave you with enough to analyze to no end. I've seen this movie several times and it always elicits an emotional response out of me. Outside of the play on b&w, which deserves its own merit, the cinematography is beautiful and efficient. The acting is incredible with great performances by everyone"

| 88 78% | Blink Twice (2024) - Rated 25 Aug 2024
"This film is a lesser version of Get Out or Parasite, but that’s not a knock against it. In my opinion, Get Out is one of the best films of the last 10 years. Blink Twice, much like the films I just mentioned, is visually stunning, features top-notch performances, and has a script that slowly lures you into a world of madness"

| 64 13% | Cuckoo (2024) - Rated 25 Aug 2024
"I am not sure exactly what is going on in this film. The script is a bit all over the place, but the performances were thoroughly enjoyable."

| 91 85% | Bull Durham (1988) - Rated 23 Aug 2024
"This movie is a Mashup of Good Will Hunting, Sleepless in Seattle, and Major League, but it did it before any of these films. This movie is great through and through"

| 72 28% | Rudy (1993) - Rated 23 Aug 2024
"The Rudy character is written for 8 year olds and simple-minded people who only see the world in dichotomies. Thankfully Sean Astin, Anspaugh, Oliver Wood, and Jerry Goldsmith deliver beyond what the script gives"
|
| 94 93% | Conspiracy (2001) - Rated 11 Aug 2024
"12 Angry Men but in Nazi Germany. Stunning delivery of dialogue and tone by Branagh"
|
| 98 98% | Singin' in the Rain (1952) - Rated 08 Aug 2024
"A film with a reputation so profound its almost hard to believe anything can warrant such praise. Well, let me tell you it's reputation is well earned. Comedy in film is notorious for aging poorly,this film had me cracking up from beginning to end. The singing, dance numbers, and overall meta aspect of it makes it such a unique film to watch. It certainly feels ahead of its time."

| 98 98% | Hoop Dreams (1994) - Rated 06 Aug 2024
"Just masterful stuff"
|
| 68 18% | Hit Man (2024) - Rated 03 Aug 2024
