    ★★★★½

    Creepy, eerie, disgusting, and captivating are words that come to mind when thinking about Nosferatu. Robert Eggers didn’t hold anything back in his depiction of the classic tale. I need to watch more of his filmography to get a better sense of his style and vibe, but this gave me my first look into his unique vision for his films.

    Finally getting to see Interstellar in IMAX felt like watching it again for the first time. The visual effects on the big screen had me absolutely entranced. Hearing, and feeling, Hans Zimmer’s score legitimately gave me chills multiple times throughout. Every actor delivers with their performance but the film is still carried by Matthew McConaughey’s layered portrayal of Cooper. The extra-dimensional scene behind Murph’s bookcase was expectedly emotional; Zimmer’s score combined with Cooper’s desperation left me in tears. Truly the best theater experience I have had and I will be amazed if anything can top it anytime soon, if ever.

    ★★★★

    A true summer IMAX film Twisters sucks you right into its action-packed vortex while all you can do is strap in and enjoy the ride. Glen Powell continues to establish himself as a bonafide movie star and Daisy Edgar-Jones’ performance gave the film more depth than anticipated. The various side characters, such as Boone, provided some comedic relief but also felt real and convinced the viewer these people were all longtime storm chasers. Twisters feels like an old school blockbuster in all the best ways.
