  Oppenheimer 2023

  ★★★★★ Watched 01 Aug 2023

  My favorite underground/ indie filmmaker Christopher Nolan has done it again.  This movie is an example of a perfect film. Epic, beautiful, philosophical, thought-provoking, bomb… just a few pretentious words that come to mind when I think of reviewing this historical drama.  Might not be my favorite movie of all time, but it is undoubtably perfect. 5/5 stars.

  ★★★½ Watched 01 Aug 2023

  A very funny and entertaining movie with valid social commentary. Did I feel attacked as a man?  Maybe.  Did I deserve to feel attacked as a man? Maybe.

  Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning 2023

  ★★★½ Watched 14 Jul 2023 1

  Following one of the best classic action movies in my opinion (MI: Fallout), I went into this movie with high expectations and sadly left with them not being met. Dead Reckoning has some incredibly tense scenes with ridiculously cool action and stunts, but from an engagement standpoint I was left wanting more. Compared to the last 3 mission impossibles, this movie felt slightly more fast-paced, which resulted in character development being rushed or just flat out neglected at some points.…

  There Will Be Blood 2007

  ★★★ Watched 12 Jul 2023 1

  There Will Be Yawns.  This movie was essentially a handful of captivating scenes that were spread out across a nearly 3 hour runtime.  Passionate and powerful dialogue was mitigated by the utter lack of character development and it took the movie 45 years to teach me that Greed = Bad.  Overall nothing was wrong with this movie but nothing was super right either.  It doesn’t help that my boy CP was sucking the living daylights out of the “micro-themes” that the movie sprinkled onto the plot like an Olive Garden waiter who’s stingy with the parmesan.
