  Anathema: Were You There? 2004

  ★★★★ Watched 15 Mar 2025

  Moving to a more progressive sound was the best decision Anthema could've made. Gave them a whole new identity with plenty to work with.

  
  Which only leaves one sad knowing they've disbanded again and likely for good this time.

  Hey Ram 2000

  ★★★★½ Watched 14 Mar 2025

  Seeing Ram's convictions swing back and forth over the course of this great work hit hard. Hassan held nothing back and went all out. That this unfortunately will remain relevant for the foreseeable future says it all.

  Irreversible 2002

  ½ Watched 14 Dec 2020

  Repulsive, nauseating and just downright vile. Actually, those words aren't enough to describe this drivel.

  If it isn't the ridiculous spinning camera work, or women being reduced to objects, or the excessive bigotry in the first half, Irréversible is one of the worst experiences I've had. The less said about THAT scene, the better.

  This serves as nothing more than some deluded edgelord's absurd fantasy. I've only seen two of Noé's movies and I'm already beginning to despise him.
