    Bong Joon Ho youve done it again!!

    His way of storytelling is actually insane. Every time. Every scene, calculated and precise. The scene in the cafeteria with the baby creeper? Where do I even begin. The symbolism with the creepers and the multiples. It was orchestrated so well. Im still in awe thinking about it. And don't get me started about Roberts acting. Oh, my god.

The ending is a solemn reminder that wounds, physically or not,…

    It's Kind of a Funny Story

    ★★★★

    this film is actually a great depiction of how mental health affects people in everyday life without making it seem like its trying too hard to be relatable, or that it's all cliche and forced upon the watcher, all the scenarios made sense and were authentic, nothing really seemed like a stretch. It was all legitimate reasons for Craig to feel stressed and suicidal imo. the bond between craig and bobby was built up really well considering the limited time…
