Joachim Trier Summer

fuck that was really something i wasnt expecting at all might be my favorite joachim trier so far hes really one of a kind made me even more excited for sentimental value

cant lie and say this is great filmmaking as it leans too much into melodrama bottling up emotions but never really letting any of it out but man this made me smile for half an hour straight at least and it made me sad too — id say it is effective in what it is trying to say at least — and it was also very refreshing to see so many things i have never seen in japanese cinema either for my lack of education on the topic or the lack of stories like these

what i will point out are the performances that are powerful enough to carry the movie even when the tone is not what youd expect

first half wasnt great felt like a sci fi — honestly this whole entity thing made the last two movies look like it — and ilsa was soooo missed but the second half picks up and brings the final chapter of the franchise home feeling a lot like the early movies. 

may write more about it soon but for now thats my takeaway

gale is actually genocidal its crazy

blatantly boring for a thriller and the acting was not good i was expecting more from rachel and cillian

not a fan of mike mills' direction in this i think hes gotten so much better over the years but the text is excellent and the ending so wholesome

the soundtrack also annoyed the fuck out of me

flawed like most movies the first half is sooooo good and the second is kind of weird imo for reasons that i wont list but the elevator scene with the girl makes up for it i almost teared up and its always good to see brit marling, steven yeun and michael pitt

my main takeaway tho is #bringbackTheOA

greatest action movie ever made changing my score to 5 finally

Can we change our futures? I don't know. The only thing I know for sure is that you are the best thing that's ever happened to me.

the science fiction of it all may be uneven and overall predictable but god the writing goes hard on the storytelling and the monologues and dialogues ― beautiful to think about self love and acceptance like that ― and sarah snook gave one of the best performances i can think of off 2014 i was so invested in the film even before they started to show their cards, by her telling the story of her life alone

never not crying a lot by the end of this

fuck it. we(s) ball

love to revisit

Alex Garland has been really evasive in the way he portrays war and i was okay with it in Civil War. it's not that different here, it's a slice of a real battle that is supposed to shine the light on one specific situation and thats where i think warfare's biggest flaw lies. Everything is as small as his efforts to make a statement.

Will Poulter i love you so much tho

a masterpiece

very disappointing

absolutely bonkers had a blast and then cried a little angus cloud you are still so loved i hope you can feel it from wherever you are

originally gave it a 2.5 but weirdly enough i has been stuck in my mind, i am a sucker for the found footage genre and adjacents and this hits hard at times for a terrifying experience. the directing isnt great or anything but i feel like this is a movie that will be in my mind forever

kinda mid if i’m being honest

what the hell sure

aside from the cinematography which was very poorly done this was a great time i had a blast

kinda miss this villeneuve

no cindy nor brenda in sight of couse this is horse shit

first watched this in the cinema and really thought it was the better one but its far from it

can't lie this is funny as hell and simon rex is a great addition to the franchise

absolute garbage

most of the jokes are dated but cindy and brenda are iconic in this one

easily best bong joon ho in english but feel like robert pattinson and naomi ackie carried the movie wouldnt have liked it as much if it werent for them

bae doona is so great here

still digesting it... i love to see italy through the lens of sorrentino and this had a great first hour followed by a dull rest of the movie that had glimpses of what it couldve been.

great writing and story in general, such interesting dinamics but i just can't with the schizophrenic pacing and choppy editing gotta be a record for most editing in a film
