another kurzel banger 😤😤😤💪💪💪

james mangold remains the king of movies your dad would fall asleep while watching in a recliner on a sunday afternoon (complementary). loved ed norton’s performance as pete seeger, good to have confirmed Guy I Love To See scoot mcnairy here, and love how the performance scenes are captured (obviously quite reminiscent of mangold’s walk the line but i love it there too). honestly, a lot of this works because i’m a sucker for the subject material, but I do think mangold has managed to find an interesting thread to pull at within the usual biopic tropes: how it feels for the people in dylan’s orbit to have him tear through their lives, and how the initial charm upon meeting this enigmatic and deeply talented songwriter inevitably curdles as he reveals himself to be an insufferably evasive and cruel shithead.

“i want room service! i want the club sandwich! i want the cold mexican beer! i want the $10,000 a night h**ker! i want my shirts laundered like they do at imperial hotel… in tokyo”

filmmakers in the 1990s really were just putting henry rollins in any old shit huh?! i love hank sm, this isn’t a diss but i'm always shocked that he’s in stuff (and not just stuff but like, a mann film and a lynch film and the best michael bay movie and fkn two season of korra and just a whole mess of consistently interesting-if-not-Fantastic stuff)

anyway, this is a lot of fun but obviously imperfect - and not always in an interesting way. i do love that keanu, riding off the massive success of speed, made this. could already tell before reading up on the production of this that it was kind of inelegantly crushed into the shape of an action blockbuster against the will of the creatives involved. haven’t read the gibson story in years but i feel like loads of unnecessary action scenes were wedged in here, and without fail they all look like dogshit. the cyber dolphin fucking rules so much. feel like i should check out the b&w version of this, can definitely see this working better if it looked more like tetsuo or something.

This happened to my buddy Luigi

Watched on Tuesday January 7, 2025.

previously had this at a one star; clearly enjoyed it a lot more this time!

the worst part of this by far is the ‘Extreme Physical Transformation Is Serious Acting’ of it all. Steve Carrell looks ridiculous and is just completely distracting and uncanny, and Mark Ruffalo should sue the filmmakers for what they did with his hairline here. I don’t think it’s any coincidence that Channing Tatum gives the most interesting performance here and is also the least fucked-up-looking of the main cast. 

if you can look past that, this is a pretty engrossing watch. it is incredibly slow, but you can feel tension gradually building to an excruciating level right up until the final moments of the film. in its best moments, it reminds of me something like Snowtown or even Elephant; hazy, cold, and oddly distant in a way that mirrors the alienation of the characters. i feel like the wrestling is captured really well also. each takedown is a concussive blast of lent up rage that is so loud it feels like it’s going to shake the screen - fitting way to depict the few moments of violent release that punctuate an otherwise emotionally repressed existence for these men.

this may seem like a borderline apocalyptic level of alcohol consumption, but I’ve worked with so many primary school teacher women in their mid-to-late-twenties that could drink these cunts under the table without breaking a sweat.

idk personally if i were lorne michaels i would think this is the funniest thing i've ever seen

real “we have superbad at home” vibes from this one

Watched on Friday December 27, 2024.

fucking hell. mikey madison’s performance feels so honed, specific, and lived-in; i fear that in lesser hands this character might come across as underwritten or lacking in depth but madison successfully breathes so much life and nuance into anora. tbh, she deserves to sweep awards season solely for convincing me that anora might actually fall for a dude like ivan. the film often reminded me of the work of the safdies, or even the coens’ more comedic works, and i was pleasantly surprised by how funny this was while never really feeling exploitative or overly nasty (imo). however, i think the last thirty or so minutes of this hit me so deeply and profoundly because sean baker wisely reminds us exactly how traumatic what we’ve just witnessed ani go through would be. i love how igor’s character develops quietly through the back half of the film, i'm fascinated by the motif of ivan playing video games (least convincing part of the film is his absolutely dogshit fake controller technique! what the fuck! also is he playing fucking sniper elite?) and how it signals towards how ivan may treat anora later in the film, it rules that a solid chunk of the film is shot like like a mix the walking into the club one-shot from goodfellas and like fucking irreversible or something. I left the cinema with the rare special feeling of having just seen something i can already tell will stick with me for some time. idk i still need to mull this one over and unpack just what makes this thing work for me but yeah this rules.

put this on for my class of 12 yr olds to finish the day... movie absolutely slams.

so fucking good, hits just as hard as the previous times i’ve seen it. most realistic part was the singer in the punk band that can’t stay in time with the rest of the band

Watched on Wednesday October 30, 2024.

addresses all the complaints i had about the previous film, namely by coming in at a relatively brisk 125 minutes(!) and, at least to my eyes, making a conscious choice to weed out the aggressively nasty misogynist streak that ran through both the two previous films. while being no less nasty and deliberately offputting (there are two set-pieces involving children that I suspect crosses a line for many), terrifier 3 also makes room for things you may find in a Actual Film Made For Normal People; good pacing, interesting character moments, and honest-to-god (though not particularly original) themes(!). the film is buoyed once again by the far-better-than-these-films-deserve performance of lauren lavera, who is imo fantastic in this film and gives what might be one of my favourite final girl performances in horror film. david howard thorton reaches another gear with his portrayal of art the clown here; his little gestures and non-verbal reactions to other characters work way more for me in this film than they previously have and his performance feels much less one note this time around.

the stuff that has previously worked for me about these movies is still here too! the visual effects are Gross [Complementary] and once again lene and co. manage to up the ante on the kinds of terrible shit they depict in gloriously rancid detail. frankly in an age of cgi blood effects (boooooo) i have a deep respect for any filmmaker that uses this much fake blood in their film and this movie fuckin delivers. aesthetically, i'm still a big sucker for the kind of 80s synthwave-y john carpenter worship that's going on here and choosing to use the kinds of panavision lenses carpenter likes to use makes this film look really great and distinct from the previous two while still retaining the warmer, almost overlit retro feeling of the second film that i enjoy.

i also appreciate that terrifier 3 is just fully leaning into some of the stupid shit that people hate and i love about slasher sequels: everything is way more silly, the film has become way more invested in its own increasingly ridiculous lore, there's a bunch of silly cameos and dumb references that has my smooth brain clapping like a seal. since it seems like i enjoy each of these films more than the last, im now pretty excited to see where leone and his troop of fucked up little freaks [again, Complementary] take the series from here.

my 80s horror favourites

• Possession
• Videodrome
• Evil Dead II

• Poltergeist
• Tetsuo: The Iron Man
• The Thing
• Christine
• Day of the Dead

• The Matrix

  Potentially my favourite example of great film editing, both for the showy aspects and for amount of care and attention taken with the less obvious fundamental stuff.

  The film is perfectly paced on a macro level, kicking off with a high energy set-piece and maintaining that momentum through a thoughtfully structured and sequentially air-tight narrative. Scenes seem to effortlessly flow into one another in a logical progression. The Matrix's action sequences are obviously iconic for their cinematography and effects work but the editing ensures that the action is always legible, providing a clear sense of where our characters are within the physical space of the scene.

  The more impressive thing is that the film maintains this energy through what you could uncharitably describe as massive exposition dumps. This is a film that has a lot of world-building to do and a lot of concepts to introduce, and it does so in a visually interesting and slickly edited manner that never drags. I'm thinking specifically of Morpheus explaining the mechanics of the Matrix - completely untethered from 'reality', the film glides between abstracted settings mid-conversation, with the mise en scene changing constantly not only to keep things interesting but also to visually the dense dialogue. And yet, for a film as aesthetically flashy as The Matrix, these editing choices effectively fade into the background. The edit is always in service of the narrative.

  The editing also displays a strong understanding of the Wachowskis' aesthetic influences. The homages to Hong Kong martial arts, cyberpunk anime, and comics all make sense within the aesthetic logic of the film and sits comfortably alongside what you might consider more typical 90's action blockbuster cinematography, never feeling transplanted from a different work altogether.

• The Godfather
• Titanic
• Mad Max: Fury Road
• Jaws
• Hoop Dreams

  Whittling down the roughly 250+ hours of footage captured for this film into a 3hr film seems like a Herculean task. That the end result feels as focused and clear-eyed in its examination of its thematic interests as it is while always retaining a clear sense of warmth and empathy for its subjects is testament to the thoughtful, intentional approach taken by its editors.
