Snatch 2000

★★★★★ Added

Jason Statham(at an early enough point in his career that he’s not an action hero but a hapless boxing promoter down on his luck) is joy to watch bumble his way to success, failing upward as he and his partner piss off the scariest crime lord in the British underworld: Brick Top, a man who calmly and rationally explains why feeding corpses to pigs is the best way to dispose of bodies to people he has just met.
Snatch has a slick soundtrack, a great and diverse cast of characters, shocking violence, superb dark comedy, and drips with style. No notes.
Drive 2011

★★★½ Added

I can see why people wouldn’t like this or be bored by it. But going back to a movie with such a simple plot can be refreshing.

North by Northwest 1959

★★★★★ Rewatched 20 Mar 2025

As close to a perfect movie as you’ll get from this time period, North By Northwest is funny, thrilling, has a kickass soundtrack, great choreography, and Hitchcock’s signature style.
I was grinning ear to ear basically the whole movie. Shoutout to the incredible line “I have a mother, a secretary, two ex-wives, and several bartenders depending on me for support!”
Possession 1981

★★★★ Watched 25 Oct 2024

Best part of this movie was occasionally after seeing the weirdest shit ever it cuts to a couple of Stasi agents on the other side of the Berlin Wall just passing binoculars to each other like “bro are you fucking seeing this shit”
