  Punch-Drunk Love 2002

  ★★★★★ Watched 19 Mar 2024

  Honestly just really good the entire way through. Soundtrack did exactly as intended, really made you feel how overwhelmed Barry can get. I don't mean to sound pretentious (but probably will anyway), but it's one of those films you can genuinely appreciate the different mediums being used to communicate in a really powerful way. It's actually really fucking clever and I admire this sort of thing a lot.

  I also appreciate how I started out almost against Barry, thinking "what…

  Blade Runner 2049 2017

  ★★★★ Rewatched 18 Jan 2024

  This film gets a lot of flack for essentially just how different the style and interpretation of the Blade Runner world is from the original film. Honestly if you see cunts using that arguement, they are soulless. Things can be different and interpreted differently. Yes I get that you might expect a similar thing because it's a sequel, but this film quite happily stands as its own story and if viewed like that, you might actually enjoy yourself, you big…

  Strangers on a Train 1951

  ★★★★½ Watched 09 Sep 2023 3

  Never actually seen this before, was a blast. Dialogue really holds your interest, such a strange and interesting idea as well. If I really fucking hated someone, I'd probably arrange a criss-cross, shit is class.

  Only reason I didn't rate 5 stars is because the second act was a bit long in my opinion. ONLY A BIT, don't rape my cat for saying that. Just lost some interest after the conversation about legal proceedings and being a suspect/person of interest because the same conversation basically happens 3 times between different people. That's all. Shut the fuck up.
