    No Other Land

    ★★★½

    Powerful, visually stunning, and disturbing.

    What became more and more apparent to me while watching is how serious and maddening the language barrier is.

    A Complete Unknown

    ★★★

    Massive bechdel fail. Halfway through I got so irritated seeing the umpteenth sorrowful, dramatic, disapproving gaze from women characters of whom we had zero insight into their character that I was totally taken out of the movie and transported to a feminist rant in my head.

    Monica Barbaro blew me away so much so that I started wondering how they got the real Joan Baez to time travel.

    Great attempt, Timothee, but I just couldn't not see Timothee Chalamet pretending…

    Dream Scenario

    ★★★½

    A slightly muddled cautionary tale on the consequences of inaction. Paul's passivity ruined his life, leaving his hopes in his dreams.

    Simultaneously, the movie served as a timely critique of cancel culture and Gen Z's emotional fragility. It made me so angry! And that was purposeful, and effective.

    You gotta suspend a lot of disbelief for this one
