Whiplash 2014
MY HEART IS POUNDING RIGHT NOW AND MY HANDS ARE SHAKING; ARGUABLY THE MOST ELECTRIC FILM I’VE EVER SEEN.
Essentially, I am at a loss for words. The kind of movie my jaw drops for when the credits begin to roll in sheer awe of its craftsmanship. It’s rare that a movie has me audibly reacting to it, especially by myself, but this one did.All Fletcher ever wanted was to make the next great. It didn’t matter to him…

Dead Poets Society 1989
When this movie ended, I cried.
I must stress, I never cry during movies. I feel them very deeply, but I am not the kind of person to actually cry in them.
Dead Poets Society asks the question, “What does it mean to live?” And does not answer it. It leaves it open-ended, up to the viewer to decide.
And to be completely honest, it had me stumped.
I’ve been thinking a lot about that recently. There’s a song lyric…

Mickey 17 2025
“Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.”
-Romans 7:24-25
What a striking display of the dichotomy of self. Seventeen and eighteen are two extremes, the timid and the aggressive split wholly in two. Sometimes I feel like I split in two, and…Translated from by -
Jojo Rabbit 2019
The benefit of doubt. The danger of not questioning anything. Though in the faith we are not instructed to blindly follow everything, it can become like that quickly if you’re too lazy or too scared to look into the truth yourself. God is so much more complex than you can learn about Him for an hour every Sunday—you have to make your faith your own and seek Him in the still, quiet, mundane days throughout the week.

Jesus Revolution 2023
The emotional beats of this movie are incredibly powerful and I was brought to tears multiple times. However, it’s in an emotionally manipulative way, not necessarily because I truly care about the characters. As a devout Christian, many moments in this movie are really amazing to see, especially in a theater filled with other Christians clapping and at one point even screaming “JESUUUUUUUUS” lol.
This movie is a HUGE leap for modern Christian media, which, for the last couple decades,…

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse 2023
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
Honestly reeling from the absolutely glorious insanity that is Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
Pretty crazy how Into the Spider-verse single-handedly invented cinema, and this movie reinvented it all over again.
I think I can honestly say this is the wildest movie I have ever seen. It was like everything in its predecessor was only the creators dipping their toes into the water of their talent and creativity, and yet we foolishly assumed that it was peak creativity.
Not even close.…
