  A Fistful of Dollars 1964

  ★★★★ Rewatched 19 Mar 2025

  Saw they were on prime and I mean how could I not. Revisiting one of my favorite trilogies ever. Just an awesome set of films you absolutely cannot go wrong with. Super entertaining, unbelievable acting, and boy how can you not love the story of a great western. These are the kinds of movies I just eat up every second of. Can’t wait to watch the next two unfold again. If you’re looking for some more detail — I think both @Kylehedvig and @chedvig do a fantastic job diving into these — check out their reviews it’s good stuff.

  Chinatown 1974

  ★★★★ Watched 17 Mar 2025 1

  Man I was really close to giving this a 4.5. Just a hungry Jack Nicholson acting his ass off, outshining everyone else performing here. Really captivating story and a couple twists I did not see coming. Can’t believe Grandpa Cross. What a dirty dog. I think Evelyn could’ve definitely used a recast, wish she had been super gas. Also the ending is just top tier.

  Strongly recommend.

  Apologies for ruining the feed here, definitely not the strat moving forward.

  *Nolan is my favorite director, some may think this is an inflated score, I just like his work*

  Oppenheimer is one of the least talked about but should be most talked about film of our recent time. This movie is absolutely excellent. 

  Everyone has or should have seen it by now so for those who don’t think too fondly on this movie I highly…

  Blade Runner 2049 2017

  ★★★★½ Watched 06 Mar 2025

  Amazing second viewing experience. 
  Tons to unpack and comparison at end.

  Vileneuve is truly creating quite the filmography resume: Sicario, Prisoners, Arrival, Blade Runner 2049, Dune 1/2. Definitely one of the best in recent years. Keep it up Denis.

  This movie made me thoroughly disappointed that I did not get to see it in theaters. The visuals here are goon-worthy. Honestly up there with the best in my opinion. Completely unique and every shot is brought to life. My eyes…
