  The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 2008

  ★★★★ Watched 21 Mar 2025

  The last hour is gripping and emotional, but the first half is not and ends as a film not quite as strong as other movies Fincher had to offer. But It’s also an enjoyable and poignant movie nonetheless.

  Coach Carter 2005

  ★★★★½ Watched 14 Mar 2025

  Coach Carter is the first film I’ve seen in too long and logged it on this app. But after watching this I felt the need to review it and get back into using Letterboxd.

  Five Nights at Freddy's 2023

  ★★½ Watched 29 Oct 2023 5

  Despite the actual film not being good, lacking substance and has no effort for a compelling narrative or screenplay. Meh acting and extremely generic characters and plot. Even Mathew Lillard couldn’t get the “I always come back” line right, which actually annoyed me. This film was a nice reminder of how actually unbelievably impressive and nostalgic the games and lore are, literally a huge part of my childhood. Also, this made me go back to listen to the Henry final speech, that’s where the lore ends for me, how it should be anyway. One of the best final speeches for any video game ever.
