  Twelve Monkeys 1995

  ★★★★ Watched 18 Mar 2025

  I understand the point of this movie, in the sense that you cant travel back and change the past because its already happened in the past, and you always went back and changed it. It kind of pushes a message of predestination, and that life will play out, no matter how it is attempted to be altered with. I feel a little unsatisfied with the end, but it ties the movie into itself so I can see it being fitting in a way.

  It has similar 90s/2000s charm to movies like Snatch, and Lock Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, but with a simpler plot. Good film to throw on and watch without having to think into it too much.

Each stage has its ‘main conflict’ - or decision that needs to be made, such as choosing to take initiative, or to find your identity. These stages run from birth to death, each one dedicated to a different age group. The stage that makes me…

  Suspiria 1977

  ★★★★ Rewatched 03 Mar 2023

  This time the bad dialogue and dubbing came to light a bit more, dragged a little but still a good flick for the most part. Watched in higher quality on a bigger TV at night too, rather than last time on my school laptop in the afternoon. Rating went down a bit, from 4 1/2 to 4 which is disappointing because I thought it would go to a 5 on a rewatch. Bit bummed now to be honest, although it was nice to see the colour blue look really nice not just the red in this rewatch. Now I just have to watch Inferno…
