  A Real Pain 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 19 Feb 2025

  Solid. Feels like we’re in an early 2000s indie revival. Millennial directors and writers inadvertently (or maybe purposely) celebrating the Garden State era.

  The Super Mario Bros. Movie 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 08 Apr 2023

  My head says it was bad, but my heart can’t let it be so. Viv and Stewart’s first time at a theater. Remind me to never see another kids movie during opening week.

  Oppenheimer 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 22 Jul 2023

  Best Nolan outside of Interstellar. Josh Hartnett’s comeback. Two minutes of Oldman were fantastic. Needed more Enrico Fermi. Casey Affleck and Josh Peck will always just be themselves on screen. Stop casting those dudes. The editing redeemed itself in the end. Message got a bit heavy handed in a few scenes. Could be 4.5 or 5 with time.
