  • Grand Theft Hamlet

    Grand Theft Hamlet

    ★★★½

    The previews that played before the screening in our theater were for awful awful-looking action movies because I guess Grand Theft Hamlet is in the action genre. 

    This movie pays homage to old GTA roleplay YouTube vids in an earnest appreciation of the game and passion for theater. There’s a lightheartedness and seriousness that gives this serious artistic merit. Actually good.

  • The Brutalist

    The Brutalist

    ★★★½

    It looks good and it sounds good and the acting is great and it’s 3 hours 35 minutes long with a 15 minute intermission. Will watch again because I didn’t catch everything the first time.

    Unfortunately this is an L for Brutalism because all the buildings in this movie were not actually Brutalist and were actually just Modernist.

    ★★★★★

    I've never fallen in love with a film quite so much like this one. My Roman Empire. My favorite documentary.

    Challengers

    ★★½

    Challengers is at its best when it asks you to ogle hot tennis players posing to synths, and its worst when it asks you to care about the outcome of tennis matches.
