Asteroid City (2023)
10/10
A masterful piece of art
30 June 2023
I realized a day after watching what this movie could be about. It's about human life. And no one knows the answer to the questions we constantly have about it. And that's okay. You just go along with the ride. You keep performing even though there may be no real meaning or outcome to the events that transpired. There could be a deeper meaning behind it but there also may not be. It's all about your own interpretation about what happens. I enjoyed this movie in its ability to confuse me, question it, and keep me guessing about what was really going on. This may be Wes Anderson's best work to date and I hope it wins best original screenplay.

Holy Motors (2012)
8/10
Merci
14 May 2021
I've seen a lot of weird films. This is up there with one of the weirdest. Weirdest being The Holy Mountain (a very hard watch). This one was enjoyable and so strange at the same time. It is about life, society and cinema all together. It's seemingly random but all serves a purpose. This film is truly unique and I applaud everyone involved.

Wow!! So epic
19 March 2021
Thank you Snyder!! That was an absolute treat. Everything DC fans have been missing and waiting for. 4 hours long but I didn't want it to end. Just pure gold for the DCEU. So much potential and excitement for future installments as long as Snyder is there to guide them.

Weirdest thing I've ever seen
23 February 2021
I Watched this(and wrote this) while tripping on acid. I have no idea how people watch this sober. I wanted to turn it off several times but you just have to let it ride. I've never been so uncomfortable watching a movie. I had to give it a few stars because it's like nothing I've ever seen or will ever see again. Unique. But not desirable. So bizarre. Disgusting beyond any film I've seen. And I've seen a lot of porn

That meant... something?
22 February 2021
I was on drugs watching this and I'm on drugs writing this. That was the weirdest thing I've ever seen. Idk what it means but I'm sure its something philosophical. Take drugs and enjoy

What a letdown
25 September 2020
Warning: Spoilers
I've seen and rated over 1,000 movies. 99% of them had a point. This film did not. It could have been a 30 minute short story. I waited and waited for SOMETHING to happen.... and then the last 30 minutes something did and it sure wasn't worth the wait. I could go on a 30 minute rant about how this movie pissed me off and it would be way more entertaining than watching this movie. The end didn't make sense... she shot herself in the head but when the random guy shot her friend her freaking face exploded... but the main character survived this? And now she's pregnant with the spawn of satan!!?? No... just no.

The Fountain (2006)

Death is the road to awe
4 September 2020
If you think this movie was boring you didn't give it a chance to provoke any thoughts of love and mortality within yourself. Slow yes but powerful up to the end

Face/Off (1997)
5/10
The average for critics is an 82!!??
4 September 2020
This is a 90's movie with all the cliches. It was entertaining to watch but if you're talking about rating movies... come on.... 82 from critics?? That's laughable. I rate movies on how enjoyable they were to watch vs how well the movie is made via cinematography and acting. A 5/10 I would watch again but this movie does not deserve an 82 from critics. Suspension of disbelief the entire way through. Gunfights and explosions and bad science. I'll say it's worth a watch but it shouldn't amount to any high praise

The Room (2003)
7/10
Anything for my princess
28 August 2020
This movie was an absolute mess... but why did I watch it 3 times? It's a film that will live in infamy forever. I cannot stop quoting this movie. It is truly a movie from another planet. Digging deeper to find out who Tommy Wiseau is only makes this movie better. I highly recommend this movie to any movie buff. It needs to be seen.... oh hi Mark

If you like people walking slowly down hallways this is the movie for you!! I enjoyed the ride but not much rewatch value. The lady in the tub was used way too much.

Trash in the grass
10 October 2019
I like Patrick Wilson in this movie. Nothing else was very good. If you like a lot of shots of moving grass this is the film for you.

Waste of time

Mother! (2017)
7/10
Kept me on the edge of my seat
15 September 2019
I'm a huge fan of movies such as Donnie Darko, Get Out, and Us as well as Mother! The reason is because they are mysterious the whole way through. They have much deeper messages than just horror and violence. Mother! makes you think and draw your own conclusions and you have to figure out the greater message on your own. I understand people not enjoying it because of the violence. But for me this movie is about humanity itself and what this world is coming to. Well done by the director, Bardem, and Lawrence.

QT's best since Pulp Fiction
6 September 2019
Another masterpiece by QT. Leo as a villain was amazing. Great cinematography, music, bloody violence and compelling acting. Well done by everyone involved.

Won't watch a 2nd time
6 September 2019
I'm a huge fan of QT. I've watched all of his movies 3 or 4 times. This one I just couldn't justify watching again. I waited and waited for a plot to start but it never did. This is a film for filmmakers to watch and enjoy if they can get past a lack of tension. I get that this is a time period movie... It looked very good. I get it... we're in the late 60's. But give me a compelling story like your last 8 movies QT! Acting was fantastic but without a good story this movie falls flat and becomes really boring really fast.

Not scary and too much comedy
6 September 2019
I was a huge fan of It Chapter One. The first scene of chapter 2 got me very excited for the rest of the movie... and I was crushed with disappointment for the rest. There just were not enough lines for Pennywise. The first movie gave me those holy crap moments when he spoke to the kids. Sadly to say there just wasn't anything creepy or engaging by the clown that I expected from this sequel. They could have done a lot more. They relied too much on comedy and not enough on horror and there was too much recycled footage from the first movie. Just a boring mess I wish I hadn't paid to see.
