    Dune

    ★★★★★

    Masterpiece. What a fucking phenomenal idea it was to run this movie in IMAX again ahead of the sequels release.

    Dune is a movie that should not exist. It's the grown up, mature, philosophical Star Wars that people have asked for. Science Fiction has been built on the back of the Dune novels for decades, and Denis Villeneuve was the one to honor it as such. He's fucking brilliant and his ability to translate an incredibly tough read into a…

    Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

    ★★★★★

    From the second Furiosa is ripped from her Utopia and brought to the wasteland, her odyssey begins. Her heroes journey. This style of storytelling is so important to me that I have a concept of the heroes journey tattooed on my fucking arm. This is the pincacle of heroic coming of age stories.

    This is the second best film of the year and firmly entrenched in my top 10 films of the decade. It’s one of the best prequels I’ve…

    Mickey 17

    ★★★★

    One of my most anticipated movies in 2025....

    I really rocked with the Mickey 17, I just wish i fell in love with it. It's a phenomenal sci-fi parody and commentary on our political and societal climate, but i never felt truly connected from start to finish.

    The first two acts had me grinning and locked in, felt the constant propulsion, stoked for the finale, but the third act grinds to a halt for me. It picks up again and…

    Twisters

    ★★★½

    Suddenly have a craving to slam some bud heavies, buy a Ram pickup truck and study meteorology with the fellas.

    Twisters is just a good old fashioned disaster blockbuster. A general audience summer crowd pleaser, for sure.

    A lot of scenes missed for me and a lot of jokes went by without a laugh...but when this shit works, it WORKS. Cast is all one note but doing that one note well.

    Predictable, cheesy, over the top…don't care. Put Glenn Powell in fucking everything.

    Chase it.

    Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

    ★★★★★

    I wrote an entire thinkpiece here and did a full review tiktok video on this one already, so all I'll say is that Furiosa remains a fucking masterpiece.

    The world failed this movie, which is shocking, because it's a massive, beautiful, crowd pleasing action epic with incredible pacing with ties to the odyssey...all led by movie stars and incredible performances that should be celebrated.

    It's everything we should all love...but it's just forgotten.

    Award season won't praise this movie... but I'll never stop.
