Our expectations were high, but there was no possible way we could have ever been ready for this. I watched Dune Pt.1 in the theaters for the first time and was blown away. I even took a second stab at preparation with an at-home viewing, yet it was to no avail. Pt.2 blows the doors off of Pt.1 in almost every facet, except for not having Oscar Isaac, which is a true tragedy. A lot can be taken from my…

Heat 1995
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
Letterboxd GC Pick #22: Heat
“Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner”

The first raid to begin the journey is excellent as well,…

For a plot and concept so cut up and glued back together, it’s rare to find no holes when you look at…

Sing Sing 2023
One of the most powerful movie experiences of the decade, bar none. I found every piece of this film to be captivating, moving, emotional, dramatic, theatrical, heartfelt, and true. Sing Sing is one of the best movies of the year, if not the decade. The fact that this movie has gone so understated is such a depressing thought. I’m slowly becoming a fan of A24 because they are really starting to head the front of independent cinema, but their release…
