Please don’t tell my girlfriend I rated it this low. Every change from the original made the story worse. The editing was so choppy and quick that it looked like a trailer or TikTok edit. Don’t watch this.

Maybe it’s because this movie is lit like a horror film (plus it has the A24 branding), but I genuinely thought this was going to veer off into some cosmic wacko body horror at any moment. So I’m a bit disappointed that the film plays it so safe. But playing it safe also means that Tim Robinson gets to do his hysterical angry demented guy schtick for a whole movie, which is fine by me. I laughed a lot!

I usually don’t log short films but this is a rare exception. Pure oddball avant-garde creative filmmaking and headache inducing weirdness. If this film was released today would tear up the midnight section of any film festival in the country.

It’s like they took about 10 minutes of Napoleon Dynamite and hacked it on to the worst children’s film ever made. Could’ve been worse! I genuinely laughed a few times, thanks to Momoa or Coolidge, but the hardest laugh I had was when the security guard poked his head in for the chicken jockey scene.

I’m genuinely shocked that this came from two veteran directors and not from two kids from Oakland scraping together friends and favors for their debut picture. It has that “fuck it” energy a first feature film usually has. 

The first two segments are REALLY rough. I adore watching nazis get fucked up, but Chapter 1 really suffered from some poor acting and the annoying Scott Pilgrimisms. Chapter 2 doesn’t really go anywhere and it feels like a student film, pointless and completely whiffs at its message about finding yourself.

Once Pedro Pascal enters the film in Chapter 3, the movie finally gets fun and engaging and maintains that energy through its kinetic finale. It’s a prime example of how having a few superstar actors can elevate your film.

Overall a mixed bag, but it’s literally impossible for me to hate a film about Oakland. Watching nazis get slaughtered to E-40’s Choices is the type of fan service I adore.

This is probably my favorite legal thriller ever. Every time I watch this movie I become more and more enamored with its central performances and its precise perfectionism. I have officially ed the Cult of Clayton, and I am Shiva the God of Death.

Saw this on a United flight last week and forgot to log it! It’s super cute and a genuine tearjerker, definitely a shoo-in for the Oscar. But it definitely starts strong and loses itself about an hour in, pretty much after the migration scene. It’s a shame because it looks beautiful, and the voice acting is terrific.

Saw this for the first time in 7 years with Tommy Wiseau in attendance. I don’t want to be the contrarian here, but this guy genuinely has nothing to say anymore. His only preoccupation now is hawking T-shirts and merch. He said literally nothing in his Q&A beyond “be positive, may all your dreams come true!” and scoffed at any decent questions thrown his way. Sure it’s fun to gawk at him, but honestly all the memes and the fun with Tommy have evaporated a long time ago.

As for the movie itself, it’s still hilariously and gloriously terrible. The deep misogyny running throughout the film barely even s because of the hundreds of other, funnier problems that it has. Tommy Wiseau’s bizarro Marlon Brando performance truly serves as the films anchor as all the characters have the same arguments over and over. And despite my cooling over the years over The Room and its creator, it’s still a lot of fun to throw spoons, count the thrusts, and just laugh in genuine bewilderment with a great group of film sickos at one of the worst dramas ever made.

I’m genuinely shocked I liked this. The music is mediocre, just standard radio pop that I don’t care for. But this has got to be one of the most self-loathing, vulgar, and downright hateful biopics ever made, and all its anger is pointed straight at its creator, Robbie Williams. The man literally calls himself a dancing monkey, endorsing this vision of himself as a total asshole with almost no redeeming qualities who betrays every aspect of himself for personal glory. And to that end I have to respect it. It takes a lot of balls to allow your life to be depicted this truthfully and painfully.
