    The Most Beautiful Girl in the World

    ★★★

    Cheesy romantic dramedy turned Triangle of Sadness in the middle. At this exact point I paused my Netflix and to my horror, I still have an hour of the movie?? Director/ editor please show some constraint. Especially in this genre. If Cronenberg can do less than 120 mins, so can you.

  • Eastern Promises

    Eastern Promises

    ★★★★½

    First, let me say this first before I forgot: I wish those who love Anora so much watch this instead.

    Second, this is one of those movies that I regret not watching sooner. Or not, probably I wouldn't be in the right mindset to watch it. But I rarely dislike cronenberg's flick (watched brundlefly probably too many times and I even loooved A Dangerous Method), always love Viggo Mortensen and Vincent Cassel, so naturally I'm obsessed. Well not obsessed, just loved this. So quiet, so nuanced, all give superb performances. And all gorgeously wrapped up in less than 2 hours! Eat your heart out Sean Baker.

    When I die, I want to come back as the woman in red kebaya and this time I won't fail killing all the annoying high schoolers.

    When you think you know where you're going, but then life, or in Parasite's case, Bong Joon Ho says different. Go watch it without knowing anything about it and thank the Lord of Cinema for this pleasure.
