  Enemy 2013

  ★★½ Watched 20 Mar 2025

  Jakey G you carry so hard in a film that is kinda pointless. Felt like it could’ve been longer if it was doing something, but it didn’t do much so glad it was quick

  Ponyo 2008

  ★★★★ Rewatched 18 Mar 2025

  A fun, lighthearted film that I almost fell asleep to for a 2nd time.

  I tried watching a review because I'm sure there were deeper themes, but it's just a lot of older stories that I have no interest in. So I am glad for this modern interpretation/adaptation of many other stories.

  The main takeaway is get Ponyo some ham!

  Oldboy 2003

  ★★★★½ Watched 22 Feb 2025

  Wowza. Beautifully shot and crafted, twisted, dark. You can empathize with characters even though it is so unrelatable to most peoples reality.

  I, unlike Chris , really enjoy how they landed the plane. I think you get a lot out of that last scene. Film major Chris resorts to bullying and belittling me when I steamrolled our initial movie night pick (although it wasn’t really steamrolling, more so rallying a crowd).

  Here is what Chris’ review should’ve been:
  Thank you,…

  Mickey 17 2025

  ★★★½ Watched 13 Mar 2025

  A fun bow to tie on the first iteration of book club. The book, Mickey7, is not a good book. The movie is much better. I think Bong did a good job focusing on parts that mattered and drawing out the gold from the pile of dirt that was the book.

  EDIT: thought i’d put here since it’s more important than the rest of my pedantic review so great job rob, mark, and toni!

  That being said, as a self…
