  Presence 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 24 Jan 2025

  Really dug the look and feel of this. The acting is great and the cinematography is 100% a gimmick that mostly works. Soderbergh has always nailed the kind of innovative style of filming that has led to him exploring multiple different genres without feeling tired. It's not really horror, but it works as being this unsettling experiment. I didn't LOVE the ending. I think it could have struck goosebumps more but it felt just a little predictable. I do really love how they shot this thing. It was well paced and kept me interested for most of the ride.

  Megalopolis 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 02 Jun 2020

  Will be absolutely thrilled for this to open, with the state of the world right now, and also a desire to return to the comforts of the chilled-widely populated cinema, especially on summer blockbuster nights, Coppola is one of the top directors who could pull off this Hail Mary at the end of his career, with more of his recent works being lesser known but this is a chance for cinema to shine a gain. When this comes out it will be like a huge breath of fresh air, a movie about New York City made by a man who loves it.

  The Wrecking Crew 1968

  ★★★ Watched 28 Jul 2019

  Woah woah woah? What?!

  Tarantino slid this into OUATIH, and naturally I couldn’t avoid it. Wrecking Crew is such a delightful caper that’s like James Bond on weed. It’s goofy, very strange, but so refreshing in its suave cheese. Dean Martin is great, even tho you can’t take it seriously.

   I never would’ve seen a film like this in a million years. So glad I watched it

  Music is so good by today’s standards. Party and driving music from the 60s >> anything today
