  The Sparks Brothers 2021

  ★★★ Watched 26 Aug 2022

  Three stars for Sparks but the ADHD editing made me so weary, especially in the first act. As if I couldn't know what an interviewee was talking about without literal stock footage of it. Deeply distracted by the expectation that, at any moment, I'd see the Hindenburg explosion or that time-lapsed decomposing fox when I just wanted to hear people give Whomp That Sucker its due. I'm a grown woman. I won't fall asleep if I don't see visual representations of something for 30 seconds, I promise.

  Bridget Jones's Baby 2016

  Watched 26 Dec 2021

  Just wanted to catch up with my old friend Bridget and instead I got a bitter but toothless diatribe against millennials and third wave feminists.

  The Strawberry Statement 1970

  ★★½ Watched 28 Jul 2021

  If you can hang in there 'til the end, you get to see Bud Cort spit on a cop.

  The Thing 1982

  ★★★ Watched 22 Jan 2021

  Nearly two hours of the "kill it with fire" meme and Kurt Russell's hair has never been fluffier.
