  • La La Land

    La La Land

    ★★★★★

    I wholeheartedly believe La La Land is the best film of the 2010s, and in the question for of all time. It’s perfect in every aspect. 

    Fantastic acting, brilliant directing, stunning cinematography, a phenomenal score, great music numbers, and ultimately the most authentic and bittersweet depiction of love ever put to screen.

    Damien Chazelle is by far my favourite director working today. From Whiplash to Babylon, his 5 star work is nothing short of extraordinary. His direction, camerawork, one-shot takes…

    Blade Runner 2049

    ★★★★★

    Blade Runner 2049 is the best legacy sequel ever made. Denis Villeneuve and Roger Deakins as a pair can do no wrong, this film is a storytelling and visual marvel that has to be experienced. 

    From the stunning visuals and cinematography to the mesmerising sci-fi score, I’m in awe of what I just watched. A premise that isn’t only a rehash of the brilliant original, but expands upon its greatness and legacy in the best way possible. ‘To be born…

    Opus

    ★★

    Oof this was a rough watch. Besides the issue of essentially every part of Opus being a carbon copy of a movie you’ve seen before (think Midsommar, The Menu, hell even last years Blink Twice), but worse, the main problem is that it’s just stale. It tries to throw a lot at the wall, but fails to make practically anything stick, taking way too long to get going and offering no real excitement or twists beside John Malkovich being a…

  • Normal People

    Normal People

    ★★★★★

    Perfection. One of the most investing love stories ever put to screen, indulging in so many notions of belonging, dialogue, and longing. Connell and Marianne are a couple of the most emotionally complex characters written, with joys and troubles, self worth and anxieties, and tender relations being realities anyone can relate to. Normal People, as an entirety, is a story about the trajectory of life, how a person can change your whole dynamics and point of existence to a singular…

    They Cloned Tyrone

    ★★★★

    Happy Barbenheimer day! 

    But before I get to watch those, I dug into Netflix’s new original They Cloned Tyrone, and it turned out to be one of the best films of the year. To choose today of all days to release this, considering how buried it’s going to get, is awful judgement on Netflix’s behalf. 

    A superb mix of genres and sub-genres from director Juel Taylor; blaxploitation, comedy, sci-fi, conspiracy, satire. Take Get Out and add a hilarious blend of…

    Oldboy

    ★★★★½

    The best revenge arc in cinema history? I think yes. One of the best twists in cinema history? I think yes. Does anybody end up the winner in this? I think absolutely not. 

    A very well-made film. A completely original plot that’s intrigue unravels as the film spans its course, with a final 20 minutes that are some of the most sickening in film.
