No one told me it was Inception.

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning

★★★★½ Rewatched

Is this the best film series ever? Maybe. 

This one is almost perfect - not quite up to the level of the previous installment. 

I love how these movies are so unabashedly untethered to reality - more so even than the MCU or Fast and Furious films. 

I could watch Shea Whigham begrudgingly hunt down Tom Cruise all day.

Saw this again at the Atlanta Film Festival followed by a Q&A with director David O. Russell afterwards. 

Great to see a rousing sports film in a packed theatre with an audience that’s into it. 

This movie so perfectly captures how your family can drive you absolutely fucking crazy but you can realize that you still love them and you still need them. 

There have been a lot of great boxing match scenes in movies but…

★★★½ Watched

At the start of this movie I thought to myself that the film couldn’t decide whether it was an actual movie or a feature-length ITYSL sketch. Then halfway through I realized: oh, it’s definitely a sketch (for better or worse),
