Obv using this as a placeholder for the show. Greatest show I’ve ever watched. S2 E7 is just straight perfection. There’s nothing quite like it.

98/100
For a movie with so much silence the dialogue is incredible. Every line sounds like a Plato quote and Tarkovsky makes Tarantino look like a baby. Not to mention the incredible use of colour and cinematography - it’s just insane. I’m not gonna lie and act like I fully understand the film to every degree but I understand enough to conclude that it is a work of art. Without a doubt one of the most confusing and contemplative films I have ever watched and probably will ever watch. I felt like I was getting a philosophy lecture, words cannot describe how you feel during those extended periods of silence. They don’t speak a lot but when they speak they fucking SPEAK. I definitely should rewatch this but it’s unlikely that I will. So many different interpretations for literally everything in this film there’s no wrong answer. Wow.

Fuck Damien Chazelle for putting me through that last 20 minutes. I’ve been wanting to watch this for years and now I’m sitting here at 2am after having my brain absolutely fried by this film. I signed up to a musical, no musical should make me this depressed. Most painful ending of any movie ever.

I have no interest in either of The films but this one is good. Gotta give credit to Gavin O’Connor

Edward Norton’s best performance without a doubt. He seems like such a normal person in all his roles but this one he gets it so right. He manages to transform himself into this hateful character and he’s so convincing in it.

Possibly the most devastating endings I’ve ever seen, just as I got some hope they blow it all away. Such a good film but that ending completely shattered my day.

87/100
Great film, great ending

I know the ending is unsatisfying but take nothing away from the fact it’s an enticing crime thriller.

91/100
This was what I needed. A very weak start to the year in of cinema and Ryan Coogler comes out with my most anticipated film of the year and it exceeds all expectations.

After seeing the trailer, I expected it to be your run-of-the-mill action movie but this was so much better. The acting from both Michael B Jordan’s was superb and I loved the Irish guy’s character so much. I will most definitely be rewatching in the near future and the dating will likely increase. Best movie of the year by a mile. And more needs to be said on the sound.

The soundtrack was flawless. I loved every second of the scene with The Rocky Road to Dublin playing and every time music was used it only made the film better. This will win best original score or else. No words need to be said on Hailee Steinfield

100/100
Nolan’s best movie - I’m lost for words

94/100
Ok, there’s no denying that this film is incredible. However, solely based on the insane amount of non-family-friendliness I physically can’t give it 5 stars. If u haven’t watch it but are familiar with Park Chan-Wook’s style, just know it’s not far off Oldboy.

82/100
I don’t watch black mirror but this was great.

Let’s be fr, Sam carried the whole trilogy

Can we just acknowledge how the same guy who plays Gollum plays Alfred in the 2022 Batman film. Like wtf

92/100
The Gollum character development is just amazing

94/100
Forgive me for thinking Harry Potter was good

80/100
There was a lot of silence in this film. That’s all I can think of to say

100/100
Might just be the greatest thriller of all time

96/100
Ik I probably have loads of bias from reading the incredible novel by Ken Kesey but the film was still fantastic. Jack Nicholson, just like in the shining, delivers another great performance portraying a crazy man. I just knew I was gonna love the film beforehand solely because of how good the book was and I knew that Jack Nicholson was gonna deliver as always. If you haven’t watched this already I recommend you read the book first as it has all the extra scenes which the movie doesn’t and it’ll make the movie much more enjoyable.

98/100
Absolutely incredible. I watched this a few years ago when I was younger and thought of this is as a very good film but rewatching it today allowed for me to see how amazing it really is.

As far as crime thrillers go, this might just be one of the best of all time. I’ve watched most of David Fincher’s most notable films with the exception of Gone Girl which I will be watching very soon. Fincher is obviously known for his crime thrillers Seven, Zodiac, Gone Girl and Fight Club (to an extent). But Denis Villeneuve on the other hand is a Sci-Fi director who isn’t known for his ability to make films as gripping as Fincher’s but rather to make those which are visually stunning like Dune and Blade Runner (which I need to see).

As for the film, the entirety of the two and a half hour runtime the viewer is emerged into the plot. We are deep in the minds of the Protagonists and can understand their decisions and discover things with them. This is only made better by the outstanding career-best performance from Hugh Jackman who was robbed of an Oscar nomination and Jake Gyllenhal who was also great. 

One final note was that ending - that literally had me saying ‘oh my fucking days’. Denis really got that spot on. 

I wanna watch Incendies now.

89/100
My first Wes Andersen film since Fantastic Mr Fox when I was like 8 or 9. Visually stunning and every shot looked like a painting itself. Stacked cast with a great lead performance from Ralph Fiennes.

82/100
Very fun film and would recommend - not exactly top 50 films of all time (cough cough IMDb)

83/100
Visually stunning and an incredible first half an hour. Make no mistake, the rest is still great but it’s not on the same level as the start.

91/100
Heartwarming asf, had to hide my phone cuz I watched it in school

89/100
Haven’t watched The Godfather Part 2 but having Robert De Niro and Al Pacino in the same film must be a cheat code for creating classics.

82/100
I understand that the film had clear theme of depression, loneliness and all that sad shit. But all I really care about is how good the jazz music was. Plus the cinematography was top tier especially considering it’s from the 70s

98/100
THE gangster movie. I understand why people call this the greatest film of all time, I personally don’t think it is but it’s certainly up there. Also, I understand the movie released over 50 years ago but damn I basically knew everything which was gonna happen. The film is referenced so much in pop culture that just one family guy episode could tell you about half the plot. Anyway, finally watching it after all these years I can confirm that it is one of the best of all time. Al Pacino might be the GOAT btw (need to watch loads more of his). On to Part 2 where I also know loads of the plot thanks to family guy and my brother.

82/100
Another fun and entertaining Bong Joon-Ho film. Robert Pattinson performs well as expected, Mark Ruffalo plays such an obvious Donald Trump caricature (very well I might add) and Toni Collette does her signature terrified face (Yk the one from hereditary). Obviously not Bong Joon-Ho’s best but that’s not saying much considering what a masterpiece Parasite is. I don’t see anything beating that. The relationships in the film seemed a bit weird tbh. I haven’t watched challengers but there’s one scene in here that reminded me of that bit in the trailer. If yk yk

82/100
Preparation for Mickey 17
Another very fun Bong Joon-Ho movie, not exactly parasite but an entertaining watch.

92/100
No wonder this one best documentary feature at the Oscars, absolutely incredible. The fact this was filmed by a Palestinian citizen in Palestine makes it so powerful. Some scenes are sad, some are thought-provoking and some just make you straight up angry. Basel and Yuval’s t Oscar speech was one of the best of the night. 100% deserved - great film.

88/100
Peak dreamworks right here

94/100
Finally got this off the watchlist after so many years. Just a great movie with a strong plot and perfect performances from every character, especially Ray Liotta RIP. So far I’ve watched shutter island, wolf of Wall Street and the departed (no misses). This is arguably the best but I personally enjoyed wolf of Wall Street more.

82/100
Preparation for Mickey 17:
Very fun movie, lots of violence and an easy-to-follow plot whilst not being trash.

97/100
My brain just melted - this needs a rewatch

98/100
Just a perfect film - the music alone had me levitating.

How can a detective movie have so many people getting drop kicked. That ending left me in awe. Such a captivating film, as gripping as Zodiac but just slightly better. Has everything Zodiac was missing

You could turn off the screen and it would still be a perfect movie - that’s how good the dialogue is.

93/100
ABSOLUTE CINEMA - only my 3rd Scorsese movie and it’s a great one. Still prefer The Wolf of Wall Street.

92/100
Rewatched in the cinema again, way freakier than I . I did slightly overrate it first time around.

Look, there are a lot of good things about this film. The individual performances from the two lead actors were great. The cinematography was jaw-dropping. However, there is one MAJOR issue - the plot. I must say the story is very unique and original, but it’s just shit. I appreciate A24 taking risks, I really do. But the story is just weak as hell, the ending was so abrupt and the entire film had my brain melting. I understand the hype, it’s just really not for me

89/100
Such a unique, clever film - just made me so sad the entire time. Only ever Sci-Fi Romcom I’ve watched like what even is that.

72/100
Wish I could say I understood half of what these guys were saying. Pretty entertaining tho

94/100
Ultimate dad movie. This is the first film I’ve watched with Al Pacino in a leading role and wow he is crazy. I understand just from this alone why people call him one of the greatest actors of all time. Any other actor and the film wouldn’t be nearly as iconic.

92/100
If you don’t think Denzel deserved that Oscar, lower your tone in my presence.
I really just waited the entire movie to hear him yell KING KONG AINT GOT SH!T ON ME
He gotta have one of the best rants in cinema history.
Fantastic movie

83/100
Why does an Irish accent suit Brad Pitt so well wtf. I love when movies have multiple storylines which intertwine at some point so Ofc I enjoyed this. Overall just a really fun movie which could definitely be rewatched in the future.

85/100
Brilliant movie. Great plot, great acting everything was great. Ending felt a bit rushed but it was still good. The dialogue was also OUTSTANDING. I would give it 4 and a half but that’s what a gave Se7en and I wouldn’t say it’s quite at that level. It’s surprising how I’m only now getting into watching Fincher’s movies, considering the quality of them.
