  High Life 2018

  ★½ Watched 13 Mar 2025

  what a waste of 2 hours feels like. horrible dialogue and a grueling watch experience made this one a movie to forget. i wouldn’t recommend this movie to anyone unless you want a convoluted storytelling experience that lacks any resemblance to a real through line. horrible character creation, world building and again again again STORYTELLING. robert pattinson’s character is initially shown as a troubled dad alone in space with a baby. then we see how he’s on a prison ship…

  The Thin Red Line 1998

  ★★★★½ Watched 03 Feb 2025

  By far the best war movie i’ve ever seen. very comprehensive and sprawling plot that explores the psyches of war and the players in it. from the Private to the Vice Admiral, everyone in the narrative has a deep sense of humanity and compassion put into their characters.

  Jim Caviezel plays Private Witt with an immense confidence that resonates with the character and the story to be told. given to us as a flawed deserter with lofty ideals of humanity…
