  Parker 2013

  ★★★ Rewatched 22 Mar 2025

  Very medium-tier Jason Statham action stuff

  Weirdly strong supporting cast all over the place in this one!

  Jennifer Lopez manages to be pretty charming despite an incredibly thankless role

  Dune: Part Two 2024

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 15 Mar 2025

  First time revisiting since theaters

  Every single second of this movie is gorgeous to look at

  I still find this to be a significant step up from the first one (which I like!) in almost every way - better set pieces, richer character work and emotional beats, stronger performances, it's all leveled up for Part 2 - excited to see what part 3 has in store!

  The Substance 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 10 Oct 2024

  Demi Moore is awesome here - I kinda loved the direction of the entire cast, there's a very bombastic/over-the-top energy at play that really worked for me

  In a movie full of visceral & gnarly images the grossest thing I saw might have been Dennis Quaid eating shrimp

  Holy shit dude what a finale!

  Barbie 2023

  ★★★★½ Watched 21 Jul 2023

  What a delight!

  Margot Robbie brings so much depth and interiority to her role, and Ryan Gosling is totally committed to his absolutely bonkers version of Ken, it's wonderful to behold - in lesser hands Barbie & Ken could have been played like glorified SNL caricatures, but thankfully this movie and these performances had a lot more in mind

  Literally every single time they even cut to Micheal Cera's face, I laughed - very happy to see him back at the movies!
