THIS WAS AN ABSOLUTE ROMP OF A GOOD TIME!!!! I laughed out loud so many times to this!!!! Just effing PHENOMENAL!!!!!!
(9.5/10)

This is my first ever classic Film Noir.
At the beginning of this movie, Tom Neal's acting wasn't really drawing me into it, but as more layers were added on to the story, it got more and more thrilling. Just a really great movie!

Okay so technically I guess I watched season 2 before season 1…oopsie

I’ll re-review this when I watch season 1, BUT

This show is absolutely phenomenal in every which way. It’s so charming, comfy, weird, and magical! Only wish Netflix hadn’t canceled it cause that was a pretty big cliffhanger to end on lol

First time watching this and HOLY SHIT that was INSANE?!?!?!?! Definitely one of the greatest action movies ever made.

AND THAT ENDING??????

This was an amazing movie but my god it’s gruesome

What an amazing Romance/Drama film this is.

Meryl and Robert’s performances are incredible.

The second half really drew me in too.

The score is stunning as well.

This could’ve been an hour shorter

This is one of the best Spielberg/Williams collaborations I’ve seen thus far. Just an absolutely insane piece of film. 

Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss, & Robert Shaw’s performances and dynamic together is PHENOMENAL!

And the whole second half of the movie is legitimately insane???? The fact they were even able to pull this off in 1975 is FUCKING CRAZY????? HOW??????

This movie is just sweaty grown posh men with funny accents running very silly with funny faces to grandiose electronic soundscapes.

7.5/10

Any time Spielberg and Williams are together, they absolutely cook. But I think the truest magic in this movie are the child actors performances (especially Henry Thomas’s). Their performances mixed with Williams’s score just bring this gigantic magical element to a pretty average and normal place (a California suburb).

My only issue with it is that there’s a few brief lines where the dialogue feels a little wonky.

I know some people aren’t as huge of a fan of this film, but I really am. I just can’t help but get choked up and cry during this movie. There’s so much beauty to be seen in it.

This was gripping.

The cinematography, camerawork, & directing are incredibly on point.

The acting is supreme.

The score and needle drops are literal PERFECTION.

The only reason this loses a half point for me is because I was legit anxiety ridden for most of this😭

This is one of those shows where the whole time they’re ramping it up to the end and you’re on the edge of your seat for the ending and then they kinda fuck it up in the second half of the final episode.

And yet at the same time I truly this is worth at least one watch cause it’s A WILD RIDE and the acting/camerawork/lighting/color grading is truly, insanely top notch

I thought the first Inside Out was a good movie. A 7/10. Nothing bad about it but nothing exorbitantly extravagant about it either. The sequel FAR sured it in my opinion. The new emotions are so well thought out and expanding on the world building of Riley’s mind is done extremely well imo. And it was just a blast to watch! The multiple different art styles of animation throughout this movie was one of my favorite things!

Rewatched this for the first time in over a decade and my god it’s brilliant. The score to the story. I truly feel captured in their world. The only issue I have with it is Gerard Butler voicing Stoic. For some reason I guess I ed Stoic’s voice being way deeper and with a lot thicker of an accent. So it’s very off to me that there are times where he doesn’t talk super deep and with a super thick accent. Like I thought I was tripping or something.

Easily one of the best documentaries I’ve ever watched. They were able to capture the absolute beauty of John’s music and life ion such a simple yet gorgeous way.

Rewatched this for my internship.

It just really is an amazing movie. I do think it’s a little simple (storywise) in comparison to the rest of Star Wars, but then again, they needed to start off somewhere and honestly I think it’s a perfect start to an epic saga

7.5-8/10

This film is fascinating because in the first half, I of course thought the Music and Cinematography was gorgeous but nothing else was really clicking for me. But then the second half came and we see some of these characters, who we know from the beginning aren’t the greatest of people, devolve into worse people and it’s fascinating to watch. And the fact they gave the main character a god complex is even more wild to me.

This is probably a film I’ll never watch again (purely due to its length being almost 4 hours long😭) but I definitely think people who are into films should at least give this film a watch once in their lifetime.

This was a great movie but my god that ending was gruesome and depressing

Truly one of the most beautiful films I’ve ever watched

This is the Film’s film. It’s so obviously gushing with the love of film. Truly ones of the greatest films ever made and one of the greatest movies I’ve had the pleasure of watching

This is an absolutely exquisite stop motion film and I had an absolute blast watching it. The music is so fun and immediately immerses you into this quirky, whimsical, and cartoonishly horrific world.

Honestly the only reason I rated it 4.5/5 instead of a 5/5 is just because I just wish it was a little longer. I would’ve loved to see some of these characters a little more fleshed out and in particular Sally and Jack’s romance (honestly I guess I had been led to believe for over a decade that there were gonna be more romance in this but like it only happens at the end of the movie)

This is an incredible movie! Acting, writing, and music are astounding! Also love how that juxtapose a really pretty, nostalgic, and melancholic musical theme in such a bleak film.

8.5-9/10 for me personally

We watched the first episode of this “Awakenings: 1954-1956” in my Culture Through Film class. It was good and I definitely learned some new stuff I hadn’t learned in high school, but I won’t say this is the most revolutionary documentary ever made (in the way it’s formatted). They just lay out the information and that’s completely fine.

Genuinely one of the most beautiful films I’ve ever seen

What an absolute blast of a movie this is! I love how much of a refreshing take it is for the Superhero genre!

This movie is slow, which I think is where its beauty lies. It’s heartwarming and heart-wrenching. It’s a simple and yet complex story just about life. About a family. About a community. That’s where its beauty is.

I don’t watch a lot of R rated movies.
This is both one of the most incredibly traumatizing and phenomenally brilliant movies I’ve ever watch.
There were so many times I wanted to cry but I was still in absolute shock at the previous scene that no tears expelled from my being.

I rate this an 8.5/10

Honestly the only demerit I think this film has is that the score works only sometimes. The score is hugely synth based which works for the thriller/mystery elements, but when it comes to the Amish/rural scenes, it just falls flat and sounds kinda dead imo. For the most part during the Rural scenes, it isn’t as obvious, but there’s like 3 big scenes where the music is just wonky and off.

Script, Acting, Cinematography, and Story are pretty solid across the board. I really enjoyed it. Especially the thriller scene at the very end of the film. Really well executed imo.

Finally rewatched this since I saw it in theatres as a kid and I genuinely don’t understand why everyone hates it??? This is an amazing movie!
Absolutely loved every thing from the art/animation to the music to the story

Watched on Thursday September 12, 2019.

Just WOW!!!
I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever watched a movie that’s taken me through the whole range of emotions in the way this movie did!!
And YES I CRIED!!!
Damn it’s such a beautiful movie!!!

I genuinely loved this movie! It was a thrilling adventure that kept me itching for the next discovery in the mystery!

It’s pretty obvious to me that Sonic, Robotnik, and Agent Stone are the best characters in this movie. Is it pretty corny? Yes. But because of that, I tend to think it gives the movie a certain charm.

This special was an absolute joy to watch! The story is sweet while still sticking to discussing heavier themes in a kid friendly manner, the soundtrack is blissfully jazzy, the animation is on point, and the Ben Folds song is amazing!
