Fight or Flight

2024

★★★★ 2

Heck. Yes. Did not think this was going to play in theaters. So im glad I got to go see it. Feels kind of like a mash of other action films. But what this one has that the others don't, is a blonde Josh Hartnett wearing a strawberry milk t-shirt covered in blood.

Lots of fun. The action is awesomely choreographed. Hartnett is believable in both the action and the comedy. And all this lands for me. I'm glad they…

The Shape of Water

2017

★★★★½ Rewatched

Only Guillermo is pulling something like this off. So many beautiful and cute moments. You invest so much into Sally and Fish Boy. Michael Shannon is a gd menace. And all those absolutely beautiful shades of green. So many beautiful colors. It's such a joy to watch.

Both times I've seen this, it's left me with such a hopeful feeling. A really beautiful message about loneliness and love.

Sinners

2025

★★★½ 2

The aesthetic is beautiful. The music/score ia so incredible that it also feels like a crutch. Invading too many scenes, making it feel so overly dramatic and uneven. Though the irish folk music was a surprise. Its trying to say a lot of things. A good handful not really landing for me. A mix of tones and genres not really committing to anything. With the ending feeling not only rushed, but messy. But Its got a style that you can't…

Zootopia

2016

★★★ Watched

Idris Elba as Chief Bogo was great.

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning

2023

★★★★½ Rewatched

Happy Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning Part 2 Day for those who celebrate. Couldn't be more excited about going to see a movie (at least since Furiosa came out).

You can feel the runtime on this one and the plot is a tad convoluted. But its such a well put together film. Feels so grand that its a delight to just sit back and be taken away by these. The entirety of the Venice club scene absolute rips.

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning

2025

★★★★½ Watched

They really went all in on the Entity and end of the world stuff. But damn did Cruise and company pull it off. Everyone played this so seriously and overly dramatic. But I loved every minute of it. Could have been silly/gimmick, but there's so much craft here that locks you in. The pacing was phenomenal. Hardly did i feel that runtime as this thing is just barreling forward.

And my goodness, that underwater scene. Tom filling up that chamber…
