Cold War 2018

★★★★★ Rewatched 09 Feb 2019 6

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

This film is a masterpiece. I don't put that label on just anything. A film has to move me in a particular way and have certain qualities to get me to call it a masterpiece.
First off I'd like to go over my first viewing of this film and some background. My girlfriend is Polish, as is her family. We share a similar taste in film (which I love) After being with her for a wonderful 8 months I got…
Home Before Dark 1958

★★★★★ Watched 23 Mar 2021

Home Before Dark (1958) is a hidden gem. It’s a film I discovered while going through Dan O'Herlihy’s filmography, and after I watched this for the first time, I was shocked to see how this film isn’t as well known. Why is that? I think it deserves to be categorized with the classics. It’s perfect in every way. It’s the best drama I’ve ever seen. It’s also one of the most disturbing films I’ve ever seen, and it’s all dialogue…

Skinamarink 2022

★★½ Watched 28 Jan 2023

I respect what the filmmakers were going for, but I did not vibe with it.
The Whale 2022

★★★★½ Watched 28 Jan 2023

This films has fantastic performances from everyone. Fraser especially deserves an Oscar. The direction, dialogue, & music help elevate the film into a whole other level. I did tear up at the emotional moments. My only issue is the pacing. The film feels way longer than it actually is. Still, this another banger from 2022.

The Batman 2022

★★★★★ Watched 05 Mar 2022 1

I've been wanting this kind of Batman film my entire life. I grew up loving the character of Batman. I watched the awesome Batman: The Animated Series all the time and bought every action figure I could find. I watched all the films, both good and bad, over and over again because I love the characters and that world. Seeing this new film on the big screen was a cinematic experience I’ll never forget. It’s my new favorite Batman film…
The Tree of Life 2011

★★½ Watched 10 Jun 2019 5

Within the first 30 minutes I was already considering shutting this film off. I decided to keep watching because I wanted to give it a chance. While I can understand why people love this film I'm the complete opposite.
The one thing I liked about this film was the cinematography. There are some beautiful shots that I really enjoyed. That's it.
I usually like nonlinear stories but this one didn't work for me. Half of this film is the "plot"…
