First Person Commuter, or, One Thing I Like About Exit 8
Like the video game it’s based on, Exit 8 does a lot with a little. It just doesn’t do quite enough.
Thoughts of a Childless Middle-Aged Man While Watching The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
The one positive thing I can say about the new Mario movie is that it made me even more appreciative of the wonderful games
Willow Creek, or, A Night in the Woods
An amateur documentary traveling to the area of the most famous Sasquatch sighting results in one of the scariest scenes I’ve seen in any movie.
Exists, or, Found Bigfootage
The found footage movie Exists isn’t even a little bit good, but at least it chooses the right side
Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones, or, Simon Dice
A series I never would’ve expected to like actually turns out to have one fun, entertaining entry. No spoilers.
The Right Kind of Slop
The painstaking work of real human artists should never be casually dismissed. It should be thoughtfully dismissed.
The Long Good Friday, or, Thames Bits
The late 70s British gangster movie is the kind of movie they don’t make anymore, and honestly weren’t making back then, either
One Thing I Really Like About Project Hail Mary
Project Hail Mary has almost all of the stuff I love about Spielberg sci-fi with almost none of the stuff I hate. (Mildest spoilers for stuff that’s in the trailers)
The Wretched, or, Good Salt Circles Make Good Neighbors
The Wretched is a pretty fun indie horror movie that’s most notable for its point of view (Spoilers after a warning)
Get Movies About Rich People Or Die Trying
Responding to different takes on the movies I watched yesterday, and thoughts on the whole idea of “getting it.” Spoilers for Saltburn and Ready or Not 2: Here I Come
Saltburn, or, I Am Stretched On Your Grave
I might have enjoyed the 90 minute long, modern take on British classics that’s buried somewhere inside Saltburn
One Thing I Like About Ready or Not 2
Ready or Not absolutely did not need a sequel, which is something the filmmakers seemed to take as a challenge
