    An American Crime

    ½

    Wow. Fucking wow. An American Crime is despicable, in every sense of the word. True crime in general has been a problem in the past few years as it can be very exploitative and disrespectful, but this is on another level compared to a lot of recent ventures into the genre. Where do I even start? It’s so difficult to pinpoint what the biggest problem of this film is because every minute or so, you find something more loathsome than the last.…

    My first viewing I went in expecting the standard A24 slow burn horror show but came out looking a bit confused and unmoved. Big mistake. It was like staring at a jigsaw puzzle box, unopened, has all the pieces inside, but I felt like someone else should have at least put more of it together for me to solve. And there is nothing wrong with solving a half finished puzzle, some movies benefit from that idea that the premise alone…

    Took me a long time to realize the genius behind Throw Down despite it being quite the simple film. Its all about the stragglers getting the fuck up and redeeming themselves for once. Never for the gold, but for glory. It does it the best with the tight framing, expected To humor, awesome soundtrack and characters you want to see succeed. This movie was made for me.

    Longlegs was one of my favorite films from last year.

It’s actually a polarizing movie, some seeing it as a good time or just downright horrible. I personally think it’s not either of those things because I was somewhat entertained by it in bits and…

    Not gonna give this short a rating. I will actually use this to talk about David Cage’s allegations, writing and directing however. If you don’t know what I am talking about, let me explain real quick. David Cage is a CEO of a game studio known as Quantic Dream, a studio that has made notable titles like Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls and Detroit: Become Human, (D:BH is actually based on this short). You may have played or even heard of…

    A fentanyl laced trip to the head! It’s even better on a rewatch…with friends! I appreciate it all the handheld angles and insane breakdowns. Even though there is some parts that do need to be trimmed down, it’s nearly perfect and impossible to replicate something so gritty and simple. Definitely one of my favorites.
