  • Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

    Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

    ★★★★★

    If you’re expecting this to be an extension of Fury Road, get rid of that thought. Like every iteration of Mad Max, this is a reimagining of the world and characters. Miller has taken a different stylistic approach with every Mad Max film and this is no exception. It is not just a continuation of Fury Road. It is its own movie.

    And it is fantastic! The visuals are outstanding, the setting is mesmerizing, the writing is great, and the…

    Dune: Part Two

    ★★★★½

    A thrilling follow up to the somewhat slog that is Part 1. Part 2 is energetic, adventurous, and visually stunning. I was so engrossed in this movie and the cast brings their skills to the set. Like the first one, what really makes this so fun is being transported to Arrakis and getting absorbed in the aesthetics and science fiction. As someone who has read the book, I really enjoyed seeing how Villeneuve interpreted the designs and characters described by…

    I love cats so much they really are the best creatures 🥹

    I am actually so blown away by the emotion in this film. It’s amazing that people can develop these kind of relationships with animals and feel so much. And there is some really great philosophy and words of wisdom from people throughout the movie. So many good quotes!

    “A sleeping cat can really give you comfort.”

    “Before, I couldn’t talk or laugh. But now, let’s just say [the…

    Novocaine

    ★★★½

    I enjoyed this much more than I expected! It’s pretty cliche but that weirdly fits the vibe. Jack Quiad is great as usual. Some pacing issues for sure but it’s a fun time at the movies. I hope it gets a sequel!

    The Super Mario Bros. Movie

    ★★★★½

    It’s exactly what you would expect from a Super Mario movie. So it was pretty good.

    Probably one of the few times I’ll ever say that a movie is too short. It felt like this needed another 20 minutes because the pacing is so fast. Otherwise, it’s a really fun movie.

    You have to go into this movie like you would with a Mario game and just have fun with it. Enjoy the amazing animation, crazy characters, and colorful world.…

  • Oppenheimer

    Oppenheimer

    ★★★★½

    No matter how much of this biopic is fictional or exaggerated, it still drives home the impact of Oppenheimer on history. The cast in this movie is incredible and it feels like everyone put in their full effort. You’re absorbed into every line and how characters react to situations. Slight spoiler: I’m glad that Oppenheimer is not portrayed entirely as a victim or that he was entirely regretful of his work. 

    Im still not entirely sure why the Florence Pugh subplot was so emphasized. But Cillian Murphy says it was vital so ok.
