  The African Queen 1951

  ★★★ Watched 10 Mar 2025

  The film lover/Casablanca stan/pretentious critic in me wanted to love this but I really thought it was so mid. I don’t know how this is so highly regarded. The plot felt so repetitive and limited. Something bad happens on boat -> they survive and become closer -> they have a romantic moment because of it. Repeat that 4 times and you have the entire plot.

  I still love Bogart and thought Hepburn’s acting was stellar. Her more emotional parts were so raw I forgot for a moment what era of film I was watching.

  Poor Things 2023

  ½ Watched 17 Dec 2023 2

  More nudity than Wolf of Wall Street. A woman with an infant’s brain who is obsessed with sex. Prostitution touted as a liberating enterprise. Children watching their father have sex with a prostitute for “sex education”. 

  A complete lack of any morality surrounding sex.

  My thoughts are fragmented and I don’t wish to collect them. I don’t want to spend anymore energy on this disgusting work for as long as I can help it.

  Perhaps I will be able to elaborate later. For now, I have nothing else to say about this evil film.

  Moonrise Kingdom 2012

  WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH EVERYONE. WHAT ARE WE DOING???

  THAT GIRL IS 12 YEARS OLD AND SHE’S DANCING IN UNDERWEAR AND THEN FRENCH KISSES ANOTHER TWEEN ONSCREEN AND TALKS ABOUT HIM TOUCHING HER BOOBS. I’m going to repeat myself - it’s not that the character was 12 years old, the ACTOR who was told to strip down and dance was 12 years old!!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON??!!??!

  If we believe minors cannot give sexual consent, WHY ARE WE LETTING A GROWN MAN BEHIND A CAMERA TEL THEM TO KISS AND DANCE HALF NAKED TO FRENCH MUSIC????? VEEKPEDHJEOWKSBDNSKSLSBDNDPSPAQLW
