  The Substance 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 03 Mar 2025

  Despite being nominated for several awards, I wasn't initially convinced by "The Substance." There are only so many award-season movies I can watch, and I often miss one or two of the Best Picture nominees. I would have skipped this one entirely, but after a conversation with a friend who insisted, "This movie was made for you. It's full of horror movie references," I decided to give it a try.

  A Complete Unknown 2024

  ★★★ Watched 02 Mar 2025

  I watch Fight Club that becomes number 1.
  I watch Zodiac that becomes number 1.
  I watch Social Network that becomes number 1.

  Watched Seven last night and it completely blew me away again. Fincher's control of the mood and tone of every scene is just absurd, you can't believe this is just his second film (He considers this his first)! The…
