The Irishman 2019
Re-watched this with my Nana because she forgot we watched it before. I gotta say... this film makes you feel a kind of sympathy/empathy for old white men that you didn't think was possible. Why was I crying for the anti-communists ??!???

Rebel Ridge 2024
Ok, living with your family, sometimes you end up in the common space while a movie like this is on, so you can't escape it lol. 2 stars because it's always cool to see cops portrayed as crooked and corrupt as they are in reality. The American nationalist propaganda machine would never actually allow them to be killed for their injustices though. The way no lethal munitions were used against any of them was so silly to watch.

Dear Champion Vending,
This is one of the most brilliant films I've watched in a long time. Truly, deeply moving.
To watch this and call Davis a sociopath is too shallow and far too easy.

The Strangers 2008
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
Thoroughly terrifying. That's why the rating. Very frustrating to watch the mistakes people make when they're running for their lives from 4am to sunrise. Really plays on the kinds of fears you have when you're a kid and you're home alone after you watch an episode of America's Most Wanted or Cold Case Files... knowing evil IS real and people can come into your home and do heinous things with the free will they have.
Honestly, that's the whole film. That's the whole plot. Just a couple, tortured and killed, for no reason other than that they were home. That's what makes it so terrifying.
