Yeah, it was really amazing seeing it on the big screen. It's such an effective movie, I felt quite uneasy for the rest of the day.

I watched Doctor Sleep when I got home. It was pretty good. An interesting story, well acted.

Watched Sorcerer the other day. Good movie. Still at a loss to explain why they named it that, though.

Laughable bad. It goes from a nice premise and interesting idea and framing, photography to just plain awful. The acting really have some embarrassing moments specially Ehrenreich.

It was still fun to see this trainwreck.
one of the best movies of 23 (my list lol)

I was off work today so I watched Badlands and Red Eye. Enjoyed both of them.

I could have used more Warren Oates in Badlands, though.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Fingernails.

Loved it. Riz Ahmed and Jessie Buckley are both so fucking brilliant. The movie has some minor issues but overall it's moving and lovely. Great concept. Great performances.

Thoroughly enjoyed Reptile. Del Toro was incredible as always. Silverstone and Timberlake were solid too. Had to ignore some plot holes in the final act but it hits far more than it misses.

Give me some crime thriller recommendations pls. I needs more.

I feel like Roman Polanski’s Frantic doesn’t get enough respect.
I love Frantic so much.
