    Restarting my Letterboxd posts to post hottest and freshest of takes: wicked was really good. The performances were outstanding. And my heart was warmed by the layering of references to the stage show, the Gregory Maguire book, the 1939 movie, and the original world building of L Frank Baum.

    Great chemistry and fun cameos cannot save a movie from bad writing and jarring tonal shifts.

    Don't Worry Darling

    ★★½

    Big swing and a foul ball. Like, it’s not a miss exactly. But it doesn’t go anywhere. I wanted it to be more. Movie, you gave me all these puzzles and none of the answers solved them.  Movie, be scarier or clever-er or sexier.

    Gorgeous, great soundtrack, and decent to great acting.

    Oh right, it’s the best movie I’ve ever seen. Watching this movie in a theater late spring 2022 was the peak narrative film experience of my life.
