Gladiator II 2024
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
I have a decent amount to say about this. The first thing I want to say is that while everyone says Mescal was incorrectly casted in this role, I whole heartedly disagree. I thought his performance was good and his emotion was good, and I think he delivered his lines well even when the script was not perfect.
As far as the plot for this film, I thought it was a little lazy. The majority of the plot points through…

It's a Wonderful Life 1946
It’s the little things that make this the greatest movie of all time. Like George and Mary being willing to give their honeymoon money to people in need during the bank run on the day of their wedding without any hesitation. Like Mary never marrying anyone and becoming an old maid in the alternate reality because she’s a hopeless romantic and her one true love, George, was never in her life. Like Harry calling George the richest man in town…

Watcher 2022
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
This film was truly daunting. There was no point in this film where I felt as though Julia was safe and that’s exactly how I like these thrillers. I loved the subtle nods to a Hitchcock presence with elements from Rear Window almost everywhere. I realize that doing that though, can have a very polarizing effect in the way that The Woman in the Window did. But where that film lacked in thrill and suspense, this film succeeded tremendously. The cinematography and…

The Talented Mr. Ripley 1999
This is technically my first full watch but I’m calling it a rewatch because I got like 3/4 of the way through the first time. I also don’t remember much of the first watch. This was actually very very good. Generally I enjoy films like this and Catch Me If You Can where the main character is on the run and pretending to be different people. I’ll admit the writing here is very very good. It’s hard to configure a…

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga 2024
This was better than Mad Max: Fury Road. I don’t care what you say. Anya Taylor-Joy killed in this role and Chris Hemsworth was surprisingly amazing in his role as well. Especially in one of his few rolls as an antagonist. I loved the prequel vibes and how the unexplained parts of Fury Road are explained here and in a way that is congruent with the characters and plot. The Max cameo was sick. The in depth politics that this…

Wall Street 1987
I think this was a very enjoyable film. I was very fond of the character development. There were a lot of great scenes where you can see the conflict in Bud and that’s what you look for in a movie like this. I can see where Scorsese got a lot of his ideas for how to do wolf of Wall Street. On other technical aspects, the cinematography wasn’t much to speak of, but the script was. I loved the way…
