  Metallica: Some Kind of Monster 2004

  ★★★★½ Watched 06 Sep 2021

  Meant to review this when I watched it but it’s been like a month. Regardless this doc is really cool for a few reasons:

   1. A lot of rock docs spend some time trying to convince you that the band in question is important… this movie doesn’t do that. There’s one text screen that says Metallica has sold 90 million albums. That is LITERALLY all we need. Problem solved.

  Interesting for me watching earlier PTA like this. Had become so accustomed to associating him with later stuff and my faves like the master and TWBB and phantom thread blah blah blah. Cant remember the last time I saw magnolia... shame on me for calling myself a fan tbh

  Shutter Island 2010

  ★★★½ Watched 09 Feb 2021 2

  Solid. Was glad it got added to Netflix cause I hadn’t seen it in like 8 years. Heavy on the atmosphere, which I like and is done well. Good shit from Leo. Mark ruffalo and Ben Kingsley also solid.

  The hallucinations/flashbacks aren’t always as engaging as I’d like them to be. Don’t care that much about the dead wife. War flashbacks are mostly good tho. I guess the emotional component to teddys character is what I think I’m missing.

  Very cool movie. Nice and creepy just not next level.
