I AM AMLETH THE BEAR-WOLF! SON OF KING AURVANDIL WAR RAVEN! AND I AM HIS VENGEANCE!
The Northman was my 2nd most anticipated release of 2022 for 3 reasons
1. The cast: Alexander Skarsgård, Nicole Kidman (we’ll get to her soon/Big Little Lies reunion with these two), Claes Bang, Anya Taylor-Joy (The VVitch reunion), Ethan Hawke, Björk (Who doesn’t need an introduction and hardly does movies!!), and Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse reunion). This is hands down the best ensemble Robert…
Before I start this review, I wanted to share these comments I found on Twitter when it was announced last year that Kristen Stewart was going to play Princess Diana.
Kristen Stewart is a terrible actress and I seriously don’t get how y’all can’t see it
One of the most charismatic people in all of history is being played by an actress who has the emotional span of a brick wall

Irma Vep (1996) is my favorite film from Olivier Assayas. Watched it 2 years ago, really enjoyed it & eventually bought the Criterion when it came out! When it was first announced that HBO was adapting this into a miniseries, was very intrigued but nervous because I wasn’t sure how this was going to work.

Moulin Rouge! is one of my favorite films ever & I really enjoyed Romeo + Juliet. Strictly Ballroom, his directorial debut wasn’t too bad & The Great…
I went into The Devil All The Time blindly, didn’t see a single trailer but was aware of how stacked this cast was. A mutual of mine was nice enough to send me a screener so I was able to see it two days before it drops on Netflix and overall I was pretty conflicted.
This wasn’t a bad movie at all, there was a handful of good things. First of all, the performances are very good; the standouts being…
Licorice Pizza was essentially PTA’s American Graffiti & I absolutely loved it. In their first acting roles, Cooper Hoffman & Alana Haim were amazing and they have a long career ahead of them. This became my favorite movie of 2021 & I had a great time watching this in 70mm. Paul Thomas Anderson for Best Original Screenplay
