  Nosferatu 2024

  ★★ Watched 23 Mar 2025

  •Visually striking, with beautifully morose color scaling and eerie cinematography.
   • The shot composition was impressive an unsettling
   • However, the story felt overly simplistic, with buildup that led to nothing substantial. (Saw it with my roommate and he literally fell asleep)
   • I went in knowing little about the original material, but even with fresh eyes, it didn’t feel like it had much depth.
   • Despite all its potential, it never cut through the surface to offer something more layered.
   • Compared to other horror films I’ve seen, Nosferatu doesn’t hold up—it looks the part but lacks the weight to make it truly memorable.

  Woman of the Hour 2023

  ★★★½ Added

  -A gripping and disconcerting perspective on the mistreatment of women during a not-so-distant time period.
  -The movie’s realism is chilling
  -Not much replay value to be honest.
  -I’m really pleased with how Anna approached this film as a director. It’s the type of movie I love watching—engaging, thought-provoking, and powerful.

  Anora 2024

  ★★★★★ Added

  -Easily my favorite movie of 2024
  -Came out of nowhere and blew me away (Went in blindly). Bold from the start, with a casual yet poignant approach to difficult themes.
  -Finally, comedy that hit just right for me. The humor was sharp and smart.
  -The early New York setting added the perfect layer of familiarity.
  -The final scene was everything I’d hoped for—satisfying, yet reflective of how unfulfilling Anora’s lifestyle is. A brilliant play on the cyclical energy that many women like her experience.
  -Mikey Madison is definitely someone I’ll be following more closely after this one.

  Moana 2 2024

  ★★½ Watched 01 Dec 2024

  -couldn’t quite understand the reasoning for the plot line or how it was even found.
  -animation was absolutely stunning and all of the vibrant colors were as beautiful as they were in the first movie
  -love the message, disney continues to make their movies more and more inclusive with subtle changes which i really appreciate. 
  -most of all just felt random and a little bit of a repeat of the first movie :/ (with worse songs oops)
