  Emilia Pérez 2024

  ★ Watched 11 Feb 2025

  Who, exactly, was this movie made for? It is truly astounding how tone-deaf and completely disconnected the cultural elite have become from normal people. 

  If you imagine this movie as being about something else other than what it is actually about, it still sucks. The songs are forgettable and it looks bland. 

  What a complete train wreck.

  Regarding Henry 1991

  ★★★ Watched 11 Dec 2020

  Had to watch for my psychology class. Regarding Henry isn’t terrible, it’s actually a pretty solid film. But the “grumpy and abrasive business man/lawyer turns good” trope is kind of hackneyed. Also, Harrison Ford isn’t very well suited for this type of role. He does fine, but his portrayal of Henry after the shooting is just kind of silly. It’s like watching Arnold Schwarzenegger trying to play Quasimodo. Just doesn’t work.

  The Truman Show 1998

  Watched 24 Nov 2020

  Had to watch for my psychology class. Entertaining and clever but not as jaw dropping as it’s reputation suggests. I live only a couple hours from where this was filmed and it’s one of my favorite vacation spots. This month has been barren in terms of movies for me. I’ve been so caught up with school and other things I just haven’t had time. Now with Thanksgiving Break starting today I’m going to set time aside to catch up on some films I’ve had on my watch list.
