  Ready or Not 2019

  ★★★½ Rewatched 24 Oct 2024

  I can't help it, I'm a sucker for a good genre subversion. It's self-aware, silly, kinda gross and visually appealing. Glad I got to see it again with people this time :)

  The Substance 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 21 Oct 2024

  An aesthetic punch to the face, but I wanted it to hurt more. 

  I was so excited to see Demi Moore, America’s Babe, take this role head on. I truly cannot imagine what was going through her mind during every step of this production. 
  At the end of the day I think hearing her thoughts on this is actually more interesting than what this movie has to say. 

  So many people hyped up the ick factor, and baby it’s gross.…

  Going Varsity in Mariachi 2023

  ★★★★★ Watched 24 Jan 2023

  I loved it. Every minute. 

  Gorgeous cinematography that captured countless honest expressions and passion bursting at the seams.
  The decisiveness of the sound editing and the quality of every performance recording was so impressive. 

  Nothing but respect for these musicians- So honest, kind, and dedicated. The culture they preserve and the culture they create amongst themselves has so much heart, it’s hard not to be moved.

  Avatar: The Way of Water 2022

  ★★★ Watched 16 Dec 2022

  Made my brain feel nice like Minecraft shaders do.

  Is this the movie of the century? no. it doesn't need to be. It has "decent" messaging, powerful acting, and a lot of love behind it. That's the bare minimum for me to enjoy a film.

  But man those Sully kids being played by yt actors and serving biracial kid energy, and Spider....existing...
  A 3 is a 3 I guess.
