  Good Time 2017

  ★½ Watched 07 Jan 2024

  Visuals and artistic choices were simultaneously the downfall and highlight of the film. 
  The entire time I was left wondering where the movie was going, but it felt like the writes were just as lost as I was.

  The Wolf of Wall Street 2013

  ★★★ Watched 09 Nov 2023

  With how long the run time is, it didn’t do a great job of communicating the passage of time. Except through 4th wall breaks, which isn’t inherently bad but was that the best you could do? 
  Felt too frat boy-ish, which I didn’t hate but I now understand why people over hype the movie. 
  The story while good didn’t necessarily have any bigger meaning. I’d say no theme other than don’t let power get to your head, I guess? 

  Presentation…

  Emily the Criminal 2022

  ★½ Watched 08 Nov 2023

  Mostly watched this film for Aubrey Plaza whose performance saved the film. 
  Wasn’t a fan of the pacing or presentation. 
  The acting wasn’t that great and the story beats left a lot to be desired. Just never really gripped me.

  Old Dads 2023

  ★★ Watched 06 Nov 2023

  This is a good gage for me being a harsh critic. 
  I did Enjoy the movie but have to give it 2 stars. 

  Wasn’t a fan of the pacing and the story beats too much. The music and overall presentation left a lot to be desired. But all these things are not to say it’s a bad movie. 

  Really enjoyed the story, and extremely enjoyed the comedy and commentary! The avenues used to display those however I did find kinda…
