The Monkey 2025
I can only review the first half of this movie, as that’s all I watched before making some good use out of my free will and walking out. First time I’ve ever done that in my life! Feels great!

Mary Jo Catlett is an icon even when she doesn't recycle!!!

Nosferatu 2024
Phenomenal in that way I don’t have the words to describe. There are so many individual shots that are as erotic as they are stomach-churningly horrific. A decent chunk of this movie is just Eggers’ showing off how good he is at camera panning. The overbearing bleakness of the color palette makes the sparing shots of fire or pure snow all the more vibrant. I could feel the score in my bones (and my Dolby Cinema theater seat). Nicholas Hoult…
