I wrote and directed a film called Relax, I’m From The Future starring Rhys Darby. 

I think it’s funny! Some people even agree!

Sinners

Fucking rules.

Was not expecting this to remind me of Steve McQueen’s Lovers Rock, but it has multiple sequences that capture the same kind of ecstatic joy of experiencing great live music in a small sweaty room with a bunch of people. Transcendent stuff. The touches of magic realism play beautifully, too.

Michael B. Jordan does top-tier Movie Star work here. Coogler knows his angles so well at this point that he just shoots the shit out of him. Delroy…

The Sugarland Express

Had no idea this was basically Spielberg making a Coen Brothers film a full decade before they’d made one!

Sags a bit in the middle and not every performance is as good as Goldie Hawn’s (and holy shit is she good)…but it’s a lot of fun, insanely well-shot and seems to be a rough blueprint for like 5-10 films that I deeply love, so that gets it a lot of credit in my book.

Would I have rated this movie 5 stars if I didn’t write, direct and edit it?

Who can say???
