Amazing kirsten dunst, historic low for tom cruise

catherine breillat is a singular genius and always has been

if you don’t like bug diner you are a coward

We shouldn’t have pulled out of Afghanistan, and I disagree with the way we did it.

KNICKS IN SIX KNICKS IN SIX KNICKS IN SIX

The Weeknd’s “Misery” is terrible, although not for lack of trying. Much of it looks beautiful, and Abel, Barry Keoghan, and Jenna Ortega are all compelling elements, but the script feels written for teenagers and is emotionally stunted, as if Abel isn’t actually willing, or able, to interrogate the questions he wants to raise about his career, life, and persona. He’s a fascinating artist, both for what works in his music and for what consistently fails whenever someone not named Safdie points a camera at him. C’est la vie.

certified cinematic dumb boy

and that’s the last film i’ll ever watch in film school ……

when spike misses he misses huh

in so many ways a crazy movie and I really ate it up. bobby and annie I love you both

saw this at the katra film festival in nyc. INSANE. at least a quarter of the audience walked out crying and screaming. but hey, as a film…. you gotta give it credit for how fascinating it is!! CINEMA!!!!

JJ abrams takes the best of early 2000s television, puts it in a movie with tom cruise and makes PSH play a delicious villian. sorry haters! there’s no bad mission impossible movie

pretty cool!! if i liked this much as someone who never listened to pavement, i imagine for pavement fans it must feel like cocaine.

zoe lister jones looks ethereal in this!

i need to see the jukebox musical….

gender, fathers and mothers, the French and the Italians, old ex boyfriends, gay british soldiers, French divas, cute doggies... this movie has everything!!!

a cautionary tale about cheating on your wife

Clint does a great job celebrating heroes and weaponizing bureaucracy. I bawled through the entire second act.

doesn’t even feel like a film, but like an extra limb or an organ that is a part of who i am-

i like daisy edgar jones a lot!

there is no film. there is nothing anywhere.

the entire 21st century has just been an embarrassment, our states are only built for violence not truths, despite the fact we put systems in place for the truth to win

i’ve grown fond of chase sui wonders. i thought this was very good

Javier Bardem slept with his mother, his girlfriend and then killed him. he had it coming.

first superhero movie where the villian would be defeated by a prozac prescription

Despite living in New York city for three years as an adult, I instantly clocked this as my New York, the city as it was during the Bush/Bloomberg years. The New York I most from childhood. There’s something about the color of New York in that era that I’ve never seen again. I wonder if something was in the air.

It literally brought back memories of magazine covers with DiCaprio, Julia Roberts, the Red Sox World Series, and the Iraq War—though that has shockingly little to do with the film itself and everything to do with how I the world at that time.

It’s a sad film, full of memories to chew on. A man’s life slipping away like a cart down a hill. Not a feel-bad movie until the end. I wonder if the actor’s back still hurts to this day.

good jewish movie

YES

white boy day at the paris

the exact sort of movie a young quentin tarantino would write. it’s all there!!

really cool looking nonsense

ing when we thought $40 million was a lot for an athlete to make

a fim about autistic kids saving latin american migrant kids. I hope rfk jr sees this movie 💙

i like when mekhi phifer starts wearing a damon stoudemire arizona jersey

movie is really good for most of it! loses it at the end, classic spike ….

oh.....

strikes me as impossibly romantic

so much New York, a nice reminder you are supposed to have fun making art

kiera knightley 🥺

if my girlfriend was hailee steinfeld and she became a vampire you wouldn’t really have to convince me to become one too

hear out my insane take but would’ve been god mode if the whole thing was a musical… musical sequences were my favorite parts… ryan coogler musical when

Watched on Saturday April 19, 2025.

an unpleasant movie that i had an unpleasant time watching

so true Jacques

Watched on Friday April 18, 2025.

much to think about

could watch these things forever

there’s so much evil in the world, but let contrast it with this…. there’s so much goodness and beauty….

a totally awesome and incredible movie that is very close to my heart. everybody should watch Laura.
