    Dune: Part Two

    ★★★★★

    Your blood comes from Dukes and Great Houses. We don't have that here. Here, we're equal. Men and women alike. What we do, we do for the benefit of all.

    I don’t remember the last time I cried coming out of the movie theater, but simply can’t believe this exists. It made me seeing God bc only something supernatural can make this masterpiece- I’m just so grateful 😭🥰❤️

  • Everything Everywhere All at Once

    Everything Everywhere All at Once

    ★★★★★

    We’re all useless alone. It’s a good thing you’re not alone. 

    One of the greatest compliments I can say ab a movie isn’t just that it makes me love movies, but it makes me appreciate every second of life even in the times that are hardest to. EEAAO makes me a better person not through some profound-type of cosmos, but by just knowing we can exist in where we are now. And that is everything.

    I’ve made the wishful comparison…

    Conclave is kinda a woke masterpiece since it made me learn about the selection of Popes and made me jealous at how dripped out they were

    Past Lives

    ★★★★½

    I feel so fortunate to watch this movie as part of the Chicago Critics Film Festival, see Celine Song before the showing, geek out like a little kid, and listen to her eloquently speak about the movie! Past Lives is a movie I've been desperately wanting to watch ever since folks have been talking about it at Sundance, and when I saw it playing at the Music Box Theatre I knew I would do whatever it took to watch it.…

  • The Batman

    The Batman

    ★★★★

    Batman's such a billionaire - filmed in a pandemic but the only part of his face that his mask doesn't cover is his mouth
