    The name of the famous rapper in the movie (one I refuse to spoil) is so deeply funny that I will never recover from hearing it. 


    The inevitable twist was that I too lost years of my life watching this film.


    this same thing happened to my friend Dave

  • Malignant

    Malignant

    ★★★★½

    Me, a sicko, pressed against the screen of my tv during the last 30 minutes of this movie: "Yes… Hahaha… Yes!"

     It is cinema, it is art.

    The Malignant jail scene is the horror version of the Captain America elevator scene. 

    “He was feeding off your fetuses to fill himself back up” is the line of the year for me.

    My cat watched this entire movie with me. She stared at the screen the whole time, she’s never done this before. She gets it.

    I would die for the cat, the capybara, and the dogs. Sorry lemur, you’re too needy. You did not deserve to have your mirror broken tho.

    Most stressful film of the year? Also I cried like 3 times.

    V proud when the cat learned to fish.

    Heart Eyes

    ★★★★

    Josh Ruben does it again. Incredible chemistry from Mason Gooding and Olivia Holt, nailing the humor, and doing a great job screaming and running away (v important for a slasher film). 

    Love the mask, love the killer reveal (despite it being fairly obvious if you’ve seen literally any slasher) and a great setup to let the persona continue.

    Devon Sawa, 🫡 thank you for your service.

    Black Adam

    ★★

    My expectations were low here and this pretty much hit those expectations. It’s not great. It’s got some fun moments. The much depleted JSA is super fun. For me, the weak link was the bad villain, the unnecessary exposition/ lack of exposition but mostly Black Adam himself. 

    This is less what I think a comic adaptation of Black Adam would be and more “what if the rock could fly and kill people?”. Dwayne seems to make absolutely no attempt at…

  • Moonfall

    Moonfall

    Our first movie of the year that absolutely DEFIES a rating system. You cannot put stars on Moonfall, only inside them (because mega-structures).

    A truly insane film so stacked with plot holes and problems that ONLY Captain Brian Harper could navigate us through them. This movie is the equivalent of that one scene in Day After Tomorrow where Jake Gyllenhaal outruns ice freezing, but a whole movie.  Some thoughts:
