    The Electric State

    Of course the first $300+ million movie entirely conceived and created by AI sympathizes with artificial intelligence’s right to freely exist and rebel against the corporatocracies that championed it in the first place…

  • Captain America: Brave New World

    Captain America: Brave New World

    ★★

    One star added for graphically rendering the destruction of the White House at the hands of #1 All-Time American Hero Harrison Ford.  

    I guess that’s a spoiler, but does it really matter?

    Love Has Won: The Cult of Mother God

    ★★★½

    Imagine being responsible for making the worst quesadilla in all of creation & upsetting the galactic ghost of Mrs. Doubtfire

  • MaXXXine

    MaXXXine

    ★★½

    Watching Maxxxine it’s not hard to spot all the inspirations and classic genre tropes that influenced Ti West. He clearly has great taste. Yet he continually fails to execute on his penchant for homage despite stellar concepts, casts, style and craftsmanship. Unfortunately Maxxxine further establishes Ti West as a very mid filmmaker never fully able to realize his half baked ideas.

    Conceptually this film is so up my alley, it’s disheartening how deeply it fails to deliver on its own…
