i love this movie

yes, i did see this twice opening day. it rules what can i say

the final reckoning is the (alleged) grand finale to a spectacular franchise. there’s a lot of exposition to set up, but as someone who enjoys People Talking with Urgency, i even loved that. the setup is of course the highest stakes we’ve ever seen, and the most intense set pieces leading to two of the craziest stunts…ever? 

tom cruise is one of one.

"okay…i see how it escalated" –raph, after this one

this movie gets better every time i see it i think?? tom cruise vs ai…the matchup of our times

after this one raph was asking "how can they possibly keep escalating?" because yeah that last 15-20 minutes always gets my heart RACING

god this movie is so good

watching this series with friends who've never seen it is so damn fun. after ghostocol they were saying "this is my favorite so far" and after this one they were like "how do these keep getting better" and ugh i just love it. they're not even ready for fallout and dead reckoning

i think i've settled with the knowledge that the burj khalifa scene is my favorite stunt in the franchise, if only bc of tom's delivery of "no shit" when they tell him his line's not long enough. it's just so good

i mean, sure. quite distracted by blake’s hair in this—doesn’t she have a hair care line? shouldn’t she have better hair than this?

erin's very intense and i deeply respect it even if i would get nervous if she yelled at me. but i love to see people be really good at their job! julia is amazing of course, nobody needs me to tell them that.

really loved this. an interesting exploration of these characters who don't fully understand what they're doing or the situations they're putting themselves into, who are surprised and occasionally uncomfortable with their actions. we don't know much about these two people beyond that, and i think that works to the movie's benefit.

nicole kidman blew me away in this, and harris dickinson honestly had me swooning. the vulnerability of their relationship and the complex gender and power dynamics really worked.

serious and playful and hot and a bit of a mess…this really worked for me!

bucky barnes has never done anything wrong in his life

florence really elevates the mcu; i love seeing her onscreen.

there's something about an it-happened-one-night story that i love getting on board for

that conjuring spirits musical sequence…masterful work, just gorgeous.

i loved all the twins/mirrors in this movie. michael b jordan's best performance(s) to date. the score is unbelievable. five stars!

saw the 20th anniversary with my mom, who somehow had never seen it! such a perfect fun respectful crowd to see it with too. love love love

second half of the double feature!

interesting to think about how we still don't know what the rabbit's foot is by the end but it shows up in the final reckoning trailer…

double feature today!

this is tom's hottest mission look. just an unbelievable face with incredible hair…stunning. we love to see it.

two of my friends have never seen any of the mission: impossible movies and asked me to be their guide through watching them all before the final reckoning comes out and i was all too happy to oblige. what a great one this is, the langley sequence still gives me goosebumps!!

man. such a cool premise, but unfortunately this film doesn't take it anywhere interesting. he cleans his apartment and shaves and becomes good at capitalism—i want to dream bigger than that!

keke palmer and sza are a comedy match made in heaven. they’re so fucking funny and so fun to watch onscreen together. loved this!

perfect movie. insanely gorgeous lighting

this is sooo 90s i love it. the montage of her going to the falafel stand every day in a fun new little fit is everything

goldie hawn's hair! goldie hawn's lips!

this movie was so fun and wacky and i had a great time. and a little musical number to end it? don't mind if i do!!

this film is so beautiful and so sad. one of those films for me where i didn't want to blink and miss a single gorgeous frame. what colors!!

the story is fairly simplistic, and although the central relationship feels a touch underdeveloped, the end scene is so stirring i wound up not minding at all. a quiet, mournful ending that's somehow still unbelievably beautiful.

went in almost entirely blind and whoa. loved it. one of those films where halfway through i already was looking forward to rewatching.

david and sofia's first night together is so incredible—they're both so charming and beautiful and perfectly match each other's energy. it's the perfect setup for the two of them

one of tom's top five hottest movie looks, even despite the facial scarring. a face made for movie screens!

didn't realize this was a time loop movie, and immediately loved it when it looped back. most movies like this fall into a bit of a lull or a rut partway through, but this one shifts and changes and escalates the stakes continuously, it doesn't let you relax into that rhythm. more than just the typical blockbuster it could have been. tom cruise and emily blunt really elevate an already-great screenplay.

elliott asking to kiss her older self is so real actually i love her for that

simone ashley is one of the most beautiful woman alive. also aw they made movie star tom from the show starstruck into a huge nerd

i had such a good time with this movie!

this film is original and fun and so earnest. i love sci-fi, and am fully willing to buy into a premise like this. it has gorgeous set design and ridiculous characters and bong's signature social commentary—fairly effective, however un-subtle.

robert pattinson is in-fucking-credible here. he's playing multiple characters, two simultaneously for most of the film, and it's remarkable. each mickey feels so distinct, despite being identical, that i forgot they were the same actor. he's so funny and uses his physicality and complete control over his facial expressions to their fullest extent here.

honorable mention to naomi ackie, who grounds the film in myriad ways. she's perfect for the fun, emotional role she plays here. mark ruffalo and toni collette are at peak absurdity and really push the limits.

i hope people will have fun with this the way i did, even if it's not what people want from bong joon ho at this moment. it's really fun and robert pattinson's performance alone is absolutely worth the price of ission.

unbelievable film. just finished, so still a little speechless…will return to write more.

gorgeous and devastating. fernanda torres is tremendous.

started to drag a bit in the second half for me but he was justified. poor puppy :(

they got me gals

what a beautiful way to conclude bridget's story. a lovely exploration of grief and motherhood and perseverance and aging and, of course, modern dating. so funny and lovely with a perfecttt romantic monologue in the snow at the end. i was nervous about this not hitting like a bridget jones movie but i really liked it! miss you, mark darcy 🥲

a tragedy i couldn't go see this in theaters over valentine's day weekend!!!

was shocked to see usher in this

i loveee a silly teen movie!!! idc about overused tropes they're just so fun

perfect perfect perfect movie

gheorghe teaching johnny to be soft…yeah. when gheorghe makes the lamb’s second coat i nearly cried 🥹

also this was my first movie i've watched on tubi and i wasn't prepared for the ads…but now i know the situation going in and i'm ready for the next time

it's all so charming!! the kiss on the porch really gets me

+ an extra half star from last time bc this was just the perfect galentine’s day watch 🫶

really interesting premise. wish it delved into different avenues a bit more; some of the directions it took were not as interesting as i hoped

pamela anderson is deeply moving for me in this film. it’sa god character study of shelly. unfortunately, the rest of the film doesn’t live up to the hopes i had for it. the story is underdeveloped and feels like we’re missing some pieces. but the final song is perfect and miley missing the shortlist for the oscars for it is a shame

first rewatch of the year…love this silly little movie
