    Along Came Polly

    ★★★

    A sort of cute romantic comedy carried by the legend himself, Phillip Seymour Hoffman in a supporting role. A man who could play every character effortlessly, even in comedic roles.

  • The Truman Show

    The Truman Show

    ★★★★★

    One of the greatest concepts in film history. Endlessly fun and interesting to spend time living in the world Peter Weir and the rest of the crew created.

    Brought to life by a career best performance from Jim Carrey, he brings it comedically, dramatically, and everything in between.

    I was once again struck by the overarching theme of self realization. Going down a path of unknown, despite what it could bring, despite the risks, is still worth it. Fantastic film.

    ★★★½

    A well made thriller that keeps you guessing until the very end.

    Fantastic performances by the entire cast. One surprise was tyler perry as tanner bolt. I feel he was quite effective and played a convincing hot shot lawyer.

    The editing was also quite good, for a 2.5 hour film it didn't feel that long.

    Overall, glad I finally got around to watching this one. Though it is not as good as fincher's best (se7en and zodiac).

    ★★★★

    Fantastic action cinema. Numerous memorable and stylistic set pieces coupled with a few wonderful performances makes this a must watch.

    Lee Jung-Jae with an absolutely impeccable performance as the villainous "Ray the Butcher." Incredible style with ruthless villainy, such a fun performance to watch.

    My only issue with this one is the ending gets too unrealistic. There is one particularly stupid move by the protagonist that almost ruined the climax. Otherwise a great film.
