  A Real Pain 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 21 Feb 2025

  It's probably exactly what you expect the acting to be on the surface of it. Kieran made me laugh and made me cry but it felt like great casting more than performance. Jesse wrote an incredible screenplay! The writing and theme of the movie is very moving and the only thing I think I was missing was a plane ride to complete the experience!

  Queer 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 18 Feb 2025

  The craft of this movie was very carefully curated and executed from the cast to the crew. It just wasn't my cup of tea. A lot of character development but no real strong plot. Incredible performances but slow burn for sure.

  Anora 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 12 Feb 2025

  Mikey is drop dead amazing in this and the writing is incredible. I love that this movie keeps you on your toes and can be emotionally experienced in a range of ways (I don't want to include spoilers). Small production but definitely stands up to its competition this Oscar season!

  The Brutalist 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 17 Jan 2025

  As an architect, I loved and hated this movie. Adrien Brody is incredible! The production design and cinematography are beautiful. I felt that the plot left something to be wanted during the second act and the movie feels like there are so many interpretations. I can't even tell what the main theme the director was trying to execute is by the end but I know that it has left me thinking. And thinking I shall remain doing....
