Challengers 2024
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
unspeakable things were said yes...
Luca Guadagnino the director that you are. Challengers is brilliant. Just as good critically as it is aesthetically, sexy with careful intention. It's seeping (literally dripping) with lust, making the viewing experience completely worthwhile. Aside from that, it's a sequence of completely engrossing matches within a match. If you pay close attention, Kuritzkes' masterful writing let's you in on it along the way.
Structurally, Challengers is spectacular, employing the (confusing) structure of tennis to depict…

Past Lives 2023
“You dream in a language that I can’t understand. It’s like there’s this whole…place inside of you where I can’t go.”

Mickey 17 2025
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
two shirtless Robert Pattinsons… why has nobody thought of this before. Also, a movie where a black women wins… bless tf up!
True to form for Boon Jong Ho, Mickey 17 delivers deliciously absurd commentary on social order and political tyranny (ft. an uncanny resemblance to the circus that is US rn, i.e the failed assassination attempt and borderline n*zi salute).
Pattinson delivers an incredible performance as Mickey 17 and 18. And that scene is god’s greatest gift to humanity. Ruffalo is excellent and I let out a chuckle every time Toni Collette used the word “sauce”.

Nosferatu 2024
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
Was unsure about how I felt about this movie from a personal perspective for a while so I let it sit for a day. I will be honest and say that the storyline is not of particular interest to me. I didn't feel a sense of terror or intimidation from Count Orlok, but overall I enjoyed it.
That aside, I can't deny that this is an astonishing feat in dark, old timey-ness. The texture, colors and setting make this a…
