    From the opening song, I just knew this was going to be a memorable movie.  Ignoring that I knew everyone loved La La Land, I tried to walk in with a blank mind (tried!), but even with the high expectations, this movie exceeded them, to a whole new level. Over the past couple of months I've been trying to watch as many movies as possible to review, and by now I have a pretty strong  top 20 list. Within the…

    Interstellar was made for IMAX. The viewing experience at this 10 year anniversary showing was incredible. Right from the beginning, the seats in the theater were shaking and I knew this was going to be different than every other viewing i’ve had. 

    The IMAX experience definitely had me appreciating different aspects of the movie than I usually do. Particularly the way Christopher Nolan used silence as a form of sound. Because our seats were vibrating so much and the music…

    Hit way harder on a rewatch. It’s crazy how I just had no idea it happened as a kid, but if it happened again in any form, I would be in the group of people who would get fucked.

    I was super optimistic about this movie. Bong Joon Ho's first movie back since Parasite and Robert Pattinson in the lead role was very intriguing. The premise itself was super encouraging and sadly I think I was let down. Thats not to say it was bad in any regard, I just think I had set the bar a little too high.

    I have wanted to watch this trilogy for a while now. The biggest thing holding me back was the length of the films; they're a massive commitment.

    To start, I definitely see the appeal of the series. There is so much lore and attention to detail, you could spend days obsessing over every part of the story. That's not even accounting for how outright beautiful this movie is. All the overhead shots of them traveling across their world, hiking through…

    Overall, extremely disappointed. I’ve heard such great things about this movie, but for me it was way too long, the love story felt so forced, and the storyline dragged. Cool vibes and music, but i was falling asleep the whole time I was so bored.
