i should see the 1939 wizard of oz The Wiz (1978) is prolly a 10/10, though i should have to rewatch |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
imdb doesn't rate it that though ebert gives it an 8/10 |

You’re a bigger (no pun intended) for rating Wicked that high, but again one of the few movies I don’t like is Wizard of Oz. No musical hating, btw |
||||||||

you mean The Wiz? i guess i'd recommend to you and your misses The Wild Robot. it's good for kids (also very honest on the brutality of nature) and for parents i have to +1 that one as well, i see, to 9 |

+ - enjoyable and nicely shot, 8 + - more mad scientist in a castle being investigated by the local journalist than a vampire film, but enjoyable, 7 + - Japanese short which essentially is just a CGI giant god warrior appearing in Tokyo and causing ruination, 7 + - a fun animated short wherein a young woman wakes up to discover she's a cockroach, and attempts to let her boyfriend know, who then chases her (believing it's a cockroach) around their apartment. Inventively animated, 8 + - John Malkovitch portrays David Lynch and several iconic Lynch characters in this short film made especially for the David Lynch Foundation, 7½ + - short documentary by Joyce Chopra, which follows a small group of girls in the mid 70s as they discuss life, boys and their discovery of gender inequality, 8 + - very uninspired songs, a plotline that seemed so pointless, but the charm of the actors worked and even as I knew shameless audience manipulation was going on, I shed a tear a end, 7 |

+ - Meg Ryan directs herself opposite David Duchovny in this two-hander; at a small airport during a storm delay, two people who shared a major relationship during and after college bump into one another and play out the usual analyses, hurt, reconciliation, understanding, etc, 7 + - A gem of a film, a well-worn plot that is elevated by the cast, the setting, and the natural offbeat naturalism of it all. Really enjoyed it, 8 + - Hilarious and the nods to Henry James actually make complete sense; like Nutcrackers it had a mainly negative reception - both films have plotlinles that on paper are very old hat, but in both cases it is the characters and the individual situations and flourishes which elevate them, 8 + - Sebastian Stan and Jeremy Strong are fantastic, both inhabit their roles impeccably, like a Sith Lord and his apprentice. The choice of filmstock and techniques that recall the periods in which the film is set (early 1970s to late 1980s) are most effective, a fascinating and singular film, 8 |

Red Sparrow 6/10, maybe 7/10, just not big on the genre |
||||||||
|

Conclave 10/10 (i guess it's a more of a traditional movie, fwiw) |
||||||||
|

in bruges 10 (i actually just went to bruges, it's like that, only now busier, something they mention in the movie, saying: it's not too busy because it's too far away for brits. so that changed) holdover 9. it's really great and heartfelt. breakfast club with more real people or something |

Shogun (TV mini-series 1980) 4/5 because I haven't re-watched the whole show, the grade might only go higher Die Hard (1988) 4/5 or even 3.5/5 because why didn't he...when he could....but it's an xmas dumbing down movie, so....the sober you get while watching the dumber it looks. Alien 5/5 just started rewatching, brb |

I genuinely want to see "Queer" starring Daniel Craig. I like Daniel Craig and I like to see him happy acting and not doing Bond through gritted teeth. And I like Gay films. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Daniel Craig is cool Queer reviews all look like trash No homophobia, I don’t care who or what you butt with The film just doesn’t look good at all Now if Mr. Wilco was doing gay stuff in it I’m sure it would raise the rotten tomatoes rating |

children of men 10 (hadn't seen it, confused it with something else till recently) paul (the alien movie) 4 the untouchables 10 (maybe skewed with some nostalgia) tropic thunder 10 (maybe i'm over rating) galaxy quest 9 (maybr i'm under rating) twin peaks series 10 so far |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
severance season 2, dunno yet. 9 so far (two eps in) more tv (skyshowtime/taylor Sheridan) landman 9 (it's not deep or whatever) yellowstone season 1 6.5 (not deep either, but lacks humor) tulsa king s2 7.5 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nosferatu struck the right balance of homage and innovation, and creepier than I expected |

Where Is the Friend's House? 5/5 most anxiety inducing film i've ever seen and i've seen uncut gems, not for the faint of heart |

i recommend , nearly gave me a panic attack |

big, I’m always amazed at how they do these mini effects and make them work in movies. Movies gotta make money and these folks probably need some pay as well. Very coil |

the brutalist 8/10 |

the brutalist 2/10 - I left at intermission Stupid, slow and boring |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I liked the architecture part of it but that’s about it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
8/10 is my 2/10, pretty much, so makes sense. still can't agree with that sentiment. on the other hand: possibly that's what intermissions are meant for. and i liked the second half way less |

Mom paid and her two old lady friends went also. I was falling asleep it was so slow. I went to her house afterwards and she came home 2 hours later and I was like how was the movie how did it end. Mom’s answer: I don’t really know, he got raped by the one guy whom he made the library for. Wtf, I like Adtian Brody a lot but the movie was Hollywood Grammy bullshit puke |

my review, The Brutalist (spoiler free) i saw someone saying on Twitter, inspired by The Brutalist: for years i'd heard about Michael Corleone being some kind of genius and i thought he'd be playing some kind of 4D chess. but then i finally saw The Godfather and turns out he just murders everyone that's in his way. i kind of have a comparable feeling about The Brutalist. maybe i just don't like the genre. but also i think it's kind of stupid. individual plot point might not be cliché, but the overall thing is. some short cuts to great writing are taken (if you know, you know). the acting is the main attraction. and the architecture, too, but i think it talks about that in a chiché matter as well. though it does look pretty good; but also mostly in close-ups 8/10 because it has its merits (maybe just watch the first half) |

i went with my dad. so we could fight about israel a bit more spoilers yeah, so the review on ebert.com says the rape isn't out of nowhere. i guess they're right, but it's still not too great writing |
