    A classic Soderbergh. Love this guy, he’s one of the few directors left that knows how to crank out a good sleek 90 min film. Best Soderbergh of the year so far

  • Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

    Thus the Pirates trilogy rewatch is complete. Forgot how great these were – love pirates, love killing British colonial soldiers, love big action set pieces – wish they still made blockbusters like this

    (additional detail I forgot: how accurately they cast the pirates in these films to match the real historical diversity of pirate crews, pretty cool!)

    I honestly don't even know what to say – probably the weirdest movie I'll see all year (perhaps ever in my life). Worth it to see in a theater, I don't think this would have been nearly as funny without an audience

  • Nosferatu

    Nosferatu

    ★★★★½

    Builds an atmosphere with shadows and light that I haven’t seen in any other film. Such craft on display by Eggers, from the framing and blocking to the editing and sound, his style works so well for this story, every actor plays their part perfectly. Only by knowing darkness and evil, can we tame it…
