    I learned so much about oysters! Obsessed with the contrasting powerhouses of insanely large, loud, heavy machinery and small, graceful, communal sea creatures. Despite the realities portrayed, I left the screening feeling lighter, at peace, in community, and inspired. Def requires a second watch!!

    this was one of those movies I've basically already seen thanks to countless small clips making their way onto my feed over the years, but it was even better than I already knew it would be! a perfect movie that conveys exactly what it feels like to sink your teeth into something and not let go. Julia Roberts left no crumbs and it's now my goal to memorize several of her monologs as my next party trick—watch out.

    the hottest movie I've maybe ever seen. juuuuuuust enough context to follow along but not enough to feel like you know exactly what's going on. Cate Blanchett was oooooozing sex appeal. a masterclass in letting the actors control the camera and use their faces to convey more than words ever could. "could you please release your anal sphincter" is maybe one of my new fav movie quotes. dry perfect adult humor. seriously so incredible. this movie could convert me into someone who believes in marriage.

    screaming sentient roly polies, space Trump, drugs derived from flame throwers, and human cloning... what could go wrong??

    cute & funny!! I've been waiting to see R Pattz shine in something after I hated him as Batman and this didn't disappoint in that respect! Lacked a little bit of depth I think but loved the ways it could be interpreted and would def watch again.
