    I’ve owned a physical copy of this for six years and only just watched it now. I hate that I waited so long because this is bloody work of art. What a beautiful disaster this is. None of that chaos would’ve happened if they just let the gay icon Dr. Herbert West cook! Bro just wanted to explore male bodies and instead that old pedo doctor gave him head!

    ★★★★

    Honey might’ve just earned a spot on my (nonexistent) top 10 list of favourite main characters. She’s so wonderfully weird, random and completely unhinged in the best way!

    Cutie Honey is a wholesome yuri, live-action anime bursting with Power Rangers/Super Sentai-style visuals and action sequences. It’s an adrenaline-fuelled ride, just like every Tokusatsu, and it never slows down. What really sets it apart, though, is the gay subtext and the not-so-subtle queerness between the two leads! Honey and Natsuko’s “will…

    Bong Joon Ho, I’m in love with your brain.

    Mark Ruffalo’s teeth deserve an Oscar. Also, he needs to exclusively play villains from now on—he’s really good at being annoying. I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that Robert Pattinson literally based Mickey’s voice on Steve-O. Out of all people, he chose Steve-O… and he fucking nailed it! But hearing that voice come out of his beautiful face makes it feel like a weird English dub of an…

    Amazing concept, but very underwhelming execution. I was excited to check this out after it won the Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film since it sounded really interesting, but I’m kinda disappointed. This just felt like Companion with all the fun taken out of it, and it kinda looks like a student film (a really good one tho). It had a really compelling opening sequence, but it went downhill from there. The idea itself is really funny, but it…

    Oh, this definitely isn’t going to be everyone’s cup of tea. It’s like a horror movie for people who don’t really like horror movies—mainly because it’s not actually a horror movie. It’s more of a psychological family drama with some horror elements sprinkled in. Neon completely misled audiences with its marketing, and I think if they’d been upfront about what the film actually is, the ratings wouldn’t be so low.

    That said, as a horror fan, I loved it. But…

    Patrick to Josh right after brutally murdering two people like a cold-blooded killer: “Hey baby, I made you dinner” ☺️ 👉👈

    This was hella fun! It’s been a long time since I’ve heard an entire cinema laughing their asses off. Everyone had a blast. Packed with memorable moments, it’s adrenaline-fuelled, fast-paced chaos from start to finish. January has been a superb month for genre films. Give me more AI slashers! And please keep casting Sophie Thatcher in these kinds of movies!!!
