A ★★½ review of As Far As My Feet Will Carry Me (2001)
Just a ridiculous caper about an escaped Nazi POW traveling around, befriending everyone he meets 🤗 Also has one of the most unrealistic and unnecessary love scenes.

A ★★★★ review of Everything Is Illuminated (2005)
Second viewing: pretty slow, hilarious and very sad. 2nd Christmas movie with the family. Thinking about showing them Good Time but I'm not sure if that would be a Good Idea...

A ★★★½ review of Hallow Road (2025)
Felt like a visual version of the narration of a decent horror short story. Brilliantly acted!

A ★★★★½ review of La La Land (2016)
I'm letting life hit me 'til it gets tired. Then I'm gonna hit back. It's a classic rope-a-dope. Having a musical that is basically about L.A. starting off in an actual traffic jam is low-key genius. ...

A ★★½ review of Wicked: For Good (2025)
The world is a dark place full of war, injustice and disappointing sequels. At least we have Ariana Grande 🪄🫧

A ★★★★½ review of Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022)
I've seen this movie only once: When I was on a date and my she fell asleep halfway through. Haven't seen it ever since. Thankfully today I did. This movie rocks, even if it's confusing af.

A ★★★★½ review of Birth (2004)
I need you to tell him to go away. Because I can't do it. An absolutely weird, spellbinding, positively kubrickian gut punch of a movie. Kudos to Glazer and Kidman for working at the top of their game...

A ★★★★ review of Baby Blood (1990)
So this movie might be considered the grand-mère of the new french extreme movement. It had a pleasant balance of gore and dark humor that made it very enjoyable! Would pair fabulously with Braindead ...

A ★★★ review of Keeper (2025)
I liked Longlegs. I really enjoyed The Monkey. I thought Keepers was just ok. Perkins definitely brought the unsettling creepy atmosphere.

A ★★★★ review of 8MM (1999)
There's three rules in life: One, there's always a victim; two, don't be it. Joel Schumacher did something special here. Nicolas Cage, on top of his game, is chasing a ghost in the seedy parts of both...
