    Space Jam: A New Legacy

    ★★★★

    This is probably one of the most fascinating yet somehow tragic things I've seen in recent memory. It felt like I was watching a 2 hour YouTube video or like one of those skits people share on Facebook. It is god awful.

    However it is also so bland and inoffensive that I managed to be engaged through the whole film.

    However, the tragedy exists in that this film nearly puts a spotlight on how much Hollywood is just a constant…

    This film is fucking amazing. It has been stuck in my brain since I first saw it when I was 16. Like fuck cops but this is the best movie about them.

    ★★★

    There is no good or bad art, only interesting and uninteresting art. The Room is a very interesting film. The fact this film has a cultural following to the point of audience rituals during screenings is a testament to how interesting it is.

    It's not really my favorite "bad" film though. It's very entertaining and humorous but there is a point where I don't find much to discuss or think about in regards to it.

    Honestly really well made and fun at points. Genuinely disturbing and distressing in others. I think it's a great piece of independent cinema, just be warned about some of the scenes in this film.
