  Memories of Murder 2003

  ★★★★★ Watched 23 Mar 2025 1

  South Korea’s version of Zodiac. Equally as dread-inducing, frustrating, and atmospheric, with moments of hopeless confusion blended with precise detective work. It's gritty and wet and dirty and dark and never lets up. This is absolutely on par with some of the best trillers I’ve ever seen.

  Anora 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 22 Mar 2025 1

  Igor is a king and didn’t deserve all that.

  Awesome movie with outstanding performances all around. The entire movie after the home invasion scene was one continuously stressful sequence, right up to the very end (which is a filmmaking accomplishment in its own right).

  That’s all it is, Joy. A leap of faith.

  Do the Right Thing 1989

  ★★★★½ Watched 29 Jan 2025 2

  The more reviews of this movie I read, the more I see that everybody's got a different interpretation of what exactly the right thing is. But I guess that's the point, eh?
