    ★★★½

    20/30
    Novocaine has a bunch of fun setpieces that give its protagonist the upper hand, and though I don't believe Jack Quaid playing Action Man for a second, he really sold the rest of the character.

    ★★★★

    22/30
    If Mickey 17's social commentary feels a bit too on the nose, or if at any point it felt like a studiohead came in and ruined the edit, all of it is overshadowed by Robert Pattinson's chemistry with himself. Mickey 18 for president.

    I don't think I've been as mad at a movie in my entire life. This is a movie where the writers expect you to sympathize with a sociopath who does everything he can to ruin his six children's lives by taking away any remnants of social interactability they might have had at one point. This is a movie where every character is either some combination of fat, dumb and Christian, or an intellectual Chomsky worshiper. This is the movie equivalent of those Tumblr posts where the "enlightened atheist" totally owns the "bigoted asshole" while 30 people cheer them on. At least Viggo was good, I guess.

    Hereditary is a film filled with grief, loss and despair. Too bad it's not filled with pacing and subtlety too.
