    Been listening to the OST including all of Hans Zimmers work he did on this movie as would a nun read scripture for the last twenty four hours. It is probably the greatest composite album ever produced for and from a movie in the history of images moving, I could not be more deadass. This movie is nothing without its music. Every time I rewatch this it floors me so violently I feel the wind knocked from my chest, HOW…

    The Social Network

    ★★★★★

    This is THE modern classic in every way. I can count all the movies I’ve ever seen that I like more than David Fincher’s The Social Network on two hands. A scarcely decorated yet all the more intense likeness of success and the cupidity of power in its earliest stages, Zuckerberg is the snide villain and clairvoyant hero of his own story all at once. Each of these two personas being their own enrapturing forces of nature to watch duke…

    ★★★★

    I want to live in this world were covert operations institutes are run exclusively by sphincter clenching late night dinner scenes populated by the sexiest people every spat out by the power of creation. with every fuzzy lighted interior and soft gravelly voice, Black Bag develops this smokey and seductive quality that feels like a hot breath up the side of your neck to help pedal its more traditional thriller who dunnit plot. And it all comes together to make…

    Shit like this really puts me through the paces, like if you’re gonna make something I’d prefer if could make it good but at least try and make it something I can write home about. But unfortunately, this movies overt lack of that something to write anywhere about just left me feeling sorry for the state that we find mafia movies in currently and the treatment of my beautiful Bobby D. Rather than make a good gangster movie, they decided…

    Cinema faces a lot of issues at the moment from a discourse point of view, and one of its biggest ones is people expecting things from movies who never advertised those things in the first place. In laments terms, Bong Joon Ho is allowed to have a bit of fun if he wants to. Parasite wasn’t a stencil, it was an achievement. And in my opinion, so was this movie. Offers a darkly witty perspective on colonialism with acting’s finest…

    When I heard about the highest grossing animated movie of all time that nobody had seen, it felt as though I’d found my McGuffin. The idea that a Chinese studio occupied only by domestic profit could tower over the likes of Pixar and Dreamworks in success just two movies deep into their figurehead film series captivated me, to say I’d had my eyebrow raised is a gross understatement. And after listening to a rave review from some people I follow…
