Another “war is bad” movie with exceedingly visceral moments thanks to its impressive sound design and prosthetics. I can’t think of many other movies with screams per minute (spm) this high, and that’s with the 30 or so minutes of inaction to start the film. Speaking of the first 30 minutes, the tension was palpable with every window peek and sniper POV panning the streets and rooftops. Almost became a joke how often each scene was totally set up for…

Interstellar 2014
Such a powerful experience to see this in theaters. Not only that, but to see it in 70 mm IMAX? Unbelievable. A stunning movie with very emotional moments that had me crying when I'm not even sure I cared about it that much the first time around. Him driving away from home for the last time got me real good. This movie is a prime example of how important music is to the overall effect. Nearly melted at the docking…

Ne Zha 2 2025
Now this is what I’m talking about !! This sequel raised the bar in every way. They also reached their nasty quota pretty early and got it out of the way. The animation was incredible and this was basically one gigantic boss fight in 2.5 hours with the action coming down to the final minute. The lore is unbelievable and it keeps building on top of itself with cooler moment after cooler moment.
It is sometimes hard to take it seriously when it’s just a little kid doing all of this though lol. And it’s pretty gay too which is cool.

Ne Zha 2019
Was quickly reminded this was intended for kids with all the farts and boogers. Huge trigger warning for those grossed out by snot (me).
Otherwise, this had solid animation with some more insane detail in the water. Very creative in a fun way and has some really sick action choreography.

Neptune Frost 2021
Uhhh cool I guess? It’s only vibes. Advertised as a music video and that’s really what it is. Funky costume design, banging beats, and beautiful scenes carry this. Unfortunately, I left severely underwhelmed by anything else going on, but I do appreciate the progressive themes and ideology throughout.

I Saw the Devil 2010
Pretty amazing. It’s the best I’ve seen a movie cover the effects of revenge. Toying with revenge leads to dangerous results... There really are no winners.
It completely subverted my expectations too. What would normally be the climax of many other revenge stories happens within the first 30 minutes of this one. This movie just has way too many great peaks for me to give it any less.
The horror aspect is perfect for my taste; some insane gore AND…
