    Wild at Heart

    ★★★½

    Weird, horny, and made you want a cigarette. 

    Also very obsessed with wizard of oz. 

    What more could ya want from David Lynch?

    The Batman

    ★★½

    Instead of gadgets, Batman should have used those billions to hire a screenwriter or an editor. 

    There’s no reason a movie this long should have a script this bad or a story so boring. I thought this shit would never end. 

    And the overarching message of this film, like all Batman films, sorta blows.

    ★★★★½

    Imagine some stinky ole heartfelt story that’s out to make you cry like before sunrise or la la land - but then imagine that in the background there’s this giant lizard from the sea mucking about that’s shooting atomic lasers from his face. Better, right?

    Well that’s this movie. Plus a god tier score.

    Every citizen of the world should be issued one ticket to see this in IMAX.

    ★★★½

    This one makes me feel like a party pooper. It was an okay movie improved due to its scale. When you really crack it open and separate it from the incredible sound design and some stand-out performances you have a muddled, surface-level (not good for a 3hr movie), and safe retelling of a story that really didn’t add any complexity to what we could have found out reading the Wiki or watching a YT video. 

    Like, who wouldn’t wonder if…
