The Stepford Wives weaves a fascinating web of commentary on beauty standards, gender roles, and the loss of individualists in a patriarchal society. The set up for me is a little long but the payoff is enjoyable and I can understand how groundbreaking this film was in 1975.

Mickey 17 2025
Mickey 17 is full of colorful commentary on the state of the U.S., capitalism, greed, and corruption. Channeling Terry Gilliam at times with its satire, Mickey 17 cracked me up several times with its ridiculousness and believability. Mark Ruffalo went crazy with his Donald trump impression and Naomi Acki and Robert Pattinson are terrific. R Pats is really doing some out of the box stuff. Solid watch. Would pair with Groundhog’s Day or Don’t Look Up.

This is one you’ve just gotta see.

I love how all of the animals have distinct personalities without words being spoken. Plenty of tension and dynamics in this one. The capybara…
