    Nickel Boys

    ★★★½

    Wasn’t expecting the story to be told from a first person POV. Much worse, the direction kept switching between different characters. Great movie regardless

  • Summer of Sam

    Summer of Sam

    ★★★½

    Ironically, It’s about the victims not the murderer. It focuses more on punk lifestyle, nudity and sex than the actual Son of Sam serial killer.

    I’d also argue there was a bit of Scorsese influence in this - Italian- American characters, The Bronx, and street gangsters here and there

    Moral lesson is don’t go to a swingers club. Fuck around and find out. Also punk Adrien Brody was something

    Sound of Metal

    ★★★★★

    Sound of Metal portrays the plights of Ruben, a heavy metal drummer as he looses his hearing.
    Riz Ahmed’s ability to draw the audience empathy with his performance should be applauded, definitely getting an Oscar nomination. It was emotional on so many levels. 
    It begs the question to be answered - Was Ruben’s addiction the drugs, music or his relationship with Lou?

    Proper credit to Marder and his outstanding cast who just gave us the sound of silence in this masterpiece. Sound of Metal is without a doubt the best film I’ve seen so far this year

    Red Rocket

    ★★★★

    Simon Rex totally owned this and despite the overrun runtime, I still found it very humorous. Good supporting cast too
