The film opens feeling tonally misguided with Dakota Johnson delivering multiple jokes none of which landing for me or the audience I was surrounded by but thankfully the second she steps into the forest shit gets real and she also has other actors to bounce off of. Speaking of the other actors, the cast has amazing chemistry that really fuels what the movie is built around! I ire the care put into handling the mythology and the Irish culture, gorgeous…

Ricky Stanicky is unlike many of the other comedies claiming to bring back the iconic style of the 2000’s, it’s confident and doesn’t bother going out of its way to please any audience other than the target which I think works because it’s not gonna be the movie for everyone so trying to make it that would just ruin it completely. Seeing the runtime going into it I was worried that it would be a bore but I actually found…

Had to sit on it for a couple hours too many but here are my rough thoughts: 

It does a good job at representing cultural collision through the many factions in the film. The casting is done very cleverly seeing as most characters are undesirable bad people but the actors playing them have a strong screen presence and likability which makes it much easier to connect to the story when there is seemingly nobody to root for in a war…

I am at a complete and utter loss for words, so many extreme, overwhelming and varied emotions but it was mainly just realllyyy fucking sad. I found the idea of the curse very interesting because of how obvious it is that each instance that could be used as an example is a direct fault of their upbringing, how they are taught to rely completely on eachother while also being viewed as competitors for dad’s favourite and how they were taught…

It’s been hours since I finished this and I still can’t even think of where to start when reviewing it because of the sheer greatness that it holds. Cailee Spainey gives it her everything here with the way she portrays Priscilla’s innocence and loneliness and really drives the entire thing forward and while he’s not on the same level as her Elordi does what he has to do really well when playing a simultaneously charming and malicious Elvis and I…

REVIEW MAY CONTAIN SLIGHT SPOILERS

Easily the stand out of the year for me so far, just leagues above anything else thats came out and im glad a film that I can finally just resonate with, I was expecting a cringey unfunny film that tries to be empowering but is overall just lame but it was really the opposite and said a lot about what it means to be human and the fact that nobody is perfect and that is…

THIS REVIEW WILL CONTAIN SLIGHT SPOILERS.

Nearly the best of the year but personally the last hour kinda dragged, not a big fan of the legal drama but the final 20 minutes especially the actual ending was pretty much perfect. Barbie has huge shoes to fill. I wasnt expecting to be absolutely and totally immersed into this kind of a story but the performances really drew me in aswell as the general execution. Really gives me the push I needed…
