  Inland Empire 2006

  ★★★★ Watched 12 Feb 2025

  "I figured one day I'd just wake up and find out what the hell yesterday was all about. I'm not too keen on thinkin' about tomorrow. And today's slipping by."

  8.3/10

  Maybe bold for this to be my first Lynch movie. People throw around the word "mindfuck" a little too liberally these days. It should be reserved for experiences like this, cause actually what was this movie.

  Laura Dern is phenomenal, so many shots were beautiful and haunting. It all…

  The Hateful Eight 2015

  ★★★ Watched 18 Jan 2025

  "And that dispassion is the very essence of justice. For justice delivered without dispassion is always in danger of not being justice."

  6.4/10

  To be fair I haven't yet seen Kill Bill, but I genuinely felt some of this was a bit over the top/crude (in a less than savory way). I've always enjoyed the ending scenes of Tarantino flicks, but this one just rubbed me the wrong way. Could be because I found the characters and intrigue to be…

Even if it deserves a perfect score, I feel I can't get over the lack of understanding innately present.

  Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood 2019

  ★★★ Watched 30 May 2024 1

  "When you come to the end of the line, with a buddy who is more than a brother and a little less than a wife, getting blind drunk together is really the only way to say farewell."

  6.3/10

  If you take individual scenes from this movie it's like a 4. In most ways its a great movie, but somehow when you combine everything, it loses all of its narrative focus. In the end I am wondering why half this movie…
