Barbie

2023

★★★★ Liked Watched

this was the funniest movie of the summer bar none. i’m shocked by how much i liked this and i thought i would like it a fair bit. damn the jokes in this movie took me out. great crowd, even better outfits, massive screen to watch it on, and i got a barbie poster too. great fun day full of watching movies that are so tonally different i have whiplash from it. thanks barbenheimer day. it was great. the existential dread oppenheimer left me with has been washed away in a sea of barbie pink

The Last Days of Disco

1998

★★★★ Liked Watched

unlike this director’s previous yuppie movie metropolitan, i actually really enjoyed a lot of the dialogue and melodramas that this movie had to offer. the backdrop of new york in the dying days of disco (like 1979-80 if my timing is right) is really fun to see and the soundtrack the clubbing provided only enhanced how much i liked the movie. there were only 2 good people in this film anyway tho everyone else was either a piece of shit,…

The Devil Wears Prada

the roast game was on point for the entirety of this movie. i’m surprised it took me this long to watch this too but this was a good time

Anora

2024

★★★★½ Liked Watched

might go down with time but for now this is is. so fun, so lively, so funny, so dark, so anxious, so ionate, and holy fuck so depressing. that ending left me stunned. this was incredible in a way i didn’t think movies this year could be (other than dune 2). this and challengers shocked me. ouch man. it was such a fun time until it wasn’t. also the final scene sort of reminded me of this painting of ivan the terrible. it was the eyes that spoke to me

Challengers

2024

★★★★½ Liked Watched

i am genuinely shocked by how much i loved this movie. it was incredible. wayyy more intense then i ever could’ve thought it would be, and very fucking horny. and the soundtrack was surprisingly omnipresent and just as good. but the definitive best part of this movie for me was zendaya easily. it’s been insane watching her career grow from watching her on disney channel back when i was a kid to seeing her become a juggernaut of entertainment as…

The Big Sleep

1946

★★★★½ Liked Watched

great old noir movie with some enthralling twist and turns throughout. i also love the slick way everyone especially marlowe talks in this movie. also the cool demeanor marlowe has throughout the entire movie was a treat to see

Miller's Crossing

1990

★★★★ Liked Watched

this was a fun gangster romp with a bunch of twists and turns and double crosses with a whole lot of real sharp wit surrounding it. pretty good. reminds me of yojimbo like some reviews said

Dìdi (弟弟)

2024

★★★★½ Liked Watched

this kid reminded me so much of my past self that it physically hurt at times but i loved it so much. i don’t know how to put this into words but i loved this so much. so funny, so sweet, and so relatable.

10 Things I Hate About You

1999

★★★★ Liked Rewatched

i don’t know how i had this at a 7 before. movies like this make the 90s look so fun to live in.

When Harry Met Sally...

1989

★★★★½ Liked Rewatched

decided to randomly rewatch this today for no real reason other than it popped up on prime and damn this still takes the cake for the best rom com i’ve seen ever. the dialogue is so good, new york never looked so appealing to live in (and never will), and it’s just a good time. also every sweater harry owns in this movie is elite.
