    The Beast

    ★★★

    THE BEAST is an ambitious, existential love story that I found engrossing one moment, then it completely lost me, only to suck me back in again. Uneven in its pacing but strangely alluring in the best ways. Léa Seydoux & George MacKay are spellbinding in their time-jumping roles. Admired it more than loved it but I’m leaving room open for a rewatch down the line.

  • The Monk and the Gun

    The Monk and the Gun

    ★★★★

    THE MONK AND THE GUN presents a traditional way of life undergoing drastic change with rich thematic texture. Loved the vibrant, gorgeous images of Bhutan & the modest but candidly funny dialogue. A pleasantly surprising & confident evolution from Lunana: A Yak In The Classroom.

    All Quiet on the Western Front

    ★★★★½

    ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT is the most terrifyingly realistic depiction of war on film since Saving Private Ryan. A bleak, brutal onslaught on the senses with an immersive soundscape & astonishing cinematography. A stunning technical achievement on all fronts from production design, makeup, original score to Felix Kammerer’s agonizing performance.

    Barbie

    ★★★★

    Greta Gerwig has done it again! BARBIE never loses its joyous spirit while telling a thoughtfully meta-story about gender roles, existentialism & self-worth. First 15 minutes had me a bit nervous but as it progressed beyond Barbieland and into the real world it became much more layered & emotional than I was expecting. Margot Robbie is beyond perfect in a role she was born to play, while Ryan Gosling is exuberantly hilarious. Endlessly creative, silly & fun.
