Borat a2c58 Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, 2006 - ★★★★

Mon, 9 Jun 2025 11:26:15 +1200

Can't believe this is real and i cant believe it took me this long to see it. Some of the moments in here are so funny and I love that 99% of the people in this movie had absolutely no idea what was going to happen.

Final Destination Bloodlines 503o73 2025 - ★★★★

Sat, 7 Jun 2025 11:32:41 +1200

One of the best entries in the series and its actually amazing they managed to bring this back in a respectful really fun way.

The kills are gnarly, the characters are fun and the story is approachable for new fans and rewarding for long time fans of the franchise!

Scooby 1s33j Doo! Shaggy's Showdown, 2017 - ★★★

Fri, 6 Jun 2025 08:17:24 +1200

The best part about these movies is the one or two famous people who cameo in them. Also there's a Matty B style tiktok kid in this thats very annoying.

Grandma's Boy 2n5u5r 2006 - ★★★½

Thu, 5 Jun 2025 07:09:01 +1200

Grace: I once gave Charlie Chaplin a handjob.
Jeff: Wow, was he silent?
Grace: Not after I got through with him.

Really enjoyed this, I thought all the side characters were perfect and so funny. Joel David Moores character is ridiculous but still very funny.

As Above 281o2i So Below, 2014 - ★★★½

Tue, 3 Jun 2025 12:48:24 +1200

A phenomenal concept for a movie that suffers in the execution a bit, i still find it entertaining and a couple of the jump scares definitely got me.

Constantine 2o6539 2005 - ★★★★½

Mon, 2 Jun 2025 23:29:02 +1200

This movie has so much style and it so fucking cool, Keanu is great as Constantine even if hes not the most comic accurate Constantine. The 4K of this movie looks incredible as well.

If you wanna hear more thoughts about Constantine from me or my cohost check out the Guilty Or Great Podcast!

Scooby 1s33j Doo! and the Cyber Chase, 2001 - ★★★★½

Mon, 2 Jun 2025 08:47:08 +1200

Absolute banger, some of the best work they have ever done. Im not sure if its a hot take but The Phantom Virus might be my favorite single monster from this franchise.

The music hits, the animation is amazing and the concept of getting lost in a video game about yourself is so good.

Scooby-Doo

Unstoppable 34502 2010 - ★★★★½

Mon, 2 Jun 2025 00:59:44 +1200

Absolutely love this film, its a absolute race to the finish line once it starts ans it never takes its food off the gas. To me this is still one of Chris Pine's best performances and the side characters in this are so great!

]]>

Shrek 2 5c4yr 2004 - ★★★★½

Sun, 1 Jun 2025 14:06:02 +1200

One of the best animated films ever, all the jokes land and the animation looks a bit better than in the first film. The soundtrack is one of the best soundtracks in film history.

]]>

Until Dawn 2u6d13 2025 - ★★½

Sun, 1 Jun 2025 02:28:51 +1200

Why didn't they just adapt the great story they already had in the game? They took what was a really great story and turned it into a generic horror film with the only twist being a play on time which has been done to death recently. Its fun enough and has some decent scares but ultimately just feels like a missed opportunity.

Scooby 1s33j Doo! Pirates Ahoy!, 2006 - ★★★½

Sat, 31 May 2025 04:57:32 +1200

Honestly a mystery cruise ship sounds like a great idea for a vacation, also the mystery in this movie is so wild and convoluted but the soundtrack bangs.

Scooby Doo

The Big Short 2u5tr 2015 - ★★★½

Sat, 31 May 2025 02:18:43 +1200

I've seen this movie twice and I still dont understand half of what they are saying, but Ryan Gosling and Steve Carrell are giving some of their best work.

]]>

The Losers 3ck1y 2010 - ★★★

Fri, 30 May 2025 06:10:03 +1200

A fun movie with some cool direction and a unique style! Jeffrey Dean Morgan plays the same character in literally everything hes in but it works for this and Chris Evans is easily the best part.

]]>

Robin Hood 4b703p 2010 - ★★★½

Thu, 29 May 2025 10:02:54 +1200

Obviously its nowhere close to Ridley's or Crowe's best film and its no even their best film together but it is fun to have them together again making a historical epics with some really sick battle scenes.

]]>

John Q 292r3n 2002 - ★★★

Wed, 28 May 2025 12:14:45 +1200

This is not a great movie but i do think its another great Denzel performance. Im currently binge watching House and this reminded me of that one House episode.

]]>

Fountain of Youth 233o72 2025 - ★★

Tue, 27 May 2025 13:47:08 +1200

One of the most bland and boring adventure films I've seen. John Krasinski has negative charisma in this and it's feels like it was just a paycheck movie for everybody. The film is devoid of any real stakes or any sense of actual adventure.

Its probably not as bad as im saying it is but it feels that bad because everyone in this can do much better and shouldn't settle for this especially Guy Ritchie.

27 Dresses 3e5x1o 2008 - ★★★

Sun, 25 May 2025 15:25:13 +1200

This was fun, had some funny scenes and I enjoyed the chemistry Marsden and Heigl had together even if the whole concept is really ridiculous.

]]>

Sat, 24 May 2025 23:48:57 +1200

Enjoy this quite a bit obviously it doesn't compare to the animated original but it is a worthwhile attempt at a live action film.

I thought Maia Kealoha was incredible in this as well as Sydney Agudong they have great chemistry! Stitch looks good as well as most of the other CGI used in the film. The only problems I have with this one is i feel like Zach Galifianakis is horribly miscast and obviously there's some characters that weren't in this version of the film that needed to be.

Mission 71384a Impossible – The Final Reckoning, 2025 - ★★★★

Sat, 24 May 2025 04:24:34 +1200

A movie with incredible moments, surrounded by a plot that loses me sometimes. We get the Dead Reckoning crew back in this one with the exceptions of Vanessa Kirby and Rebecca Ferguson and you did feel them missing. I have alot of questions about plot and moments that hopefully can be answered on a rewatch!

Either way another great movie in a great franchise!! Long live Tom Cruise!

Mission 71384a Impossible – Dead Reckoning, 2023 - ★★★★

Fri, 23 May 2025 09:11:47 +1200

A strong finish with this one the 45 min is incredible. The mask fake outs continue to get me everytime even 7 movies in.

The most comedic Mission Impossible film yet and it has some really funny moments. Tom Cruise has still got it.

]]>

Mission 71384a Impossible – Fallout, 2018 - ★★★★★

Thu, 22 May 2025 22:26:04 +1200

Delivery Man: Fate whispers to the warrior.
Ethan Hunt: A storm is coming.
Delivery Man: And the warrior whispers back.
Ethan Hunt: I am the storm.

Tom Cruise can never die.

Mission 71384a Impossible – Rogue Nation, 2015 - ★★★★½

Thu, 22 May 2025 12:21:03 +1200

Wow, just when I thought these cast couldn't get better Rebecca Ferguson adds so much to this film and this series.

When Alec Baldwin says Ethan Hunt is the living manifestation of destiny i was levitating.

Bring Her Back 4ai2z 2025 - ★★★★

Wed, 21 May 2025 18:53:58 +1200

Those boys did it again, they managed to make me squirm, cover my eyes, and almost gag with how sick and twisted their minds are. But this time they also managed to make me feel emotionally invested in a character and crafted a compelling drama in one of the most fucked up movies I've ever seen.

These guys are special and I can't wait to see what they do next.

Nonnas 305j2s 2025 - ★★★½

Wed, 21 May 2025 12:03:42 +1200

I've never been into older women but those Nonnas had it going on.

This reminds of Chef one of my all time favorites movies it has the same comforting vibe and just like Chef it made me emotional at the end.

I'm glad Vince Vaugn is making movies like this later in his career.

Margin Call 4t3g1s 2011 - ★★★½

Paul Bettany is lights out in this.

Spotlight z102w 2015 - ★★★★★

Mon, 19 May 2025 11:03:47 +1200

Everytime I watch this i appreciate something different, this time I really appreciated Rachel McAdams even more and I think this might be my favorite performance of hers, also Stanley Tucci is lights out.

]]>

Mission 71384a Impossible – Ghost Protocol, 2011 - ★★★★

Sun, 18 May 2025 10:56:58 +1200

Another great entry in this franchise, the Burj Khalifa scene is a incredible set pieces that peaks a bit too early as there's still a lot of film left and the rest of the movie struggles to bring the excitement back up to those heights.

The crew is really fun i enjoyed getting more of Simon Pegg. I really enjoyed the Kremlin heist and the prison break stuff as well! The Villian is pretty underwhelming though especially coming off of PSH in the 3rd film..

]]>

Mission 71384a Impossible III, 2006 - ★★★★★

Sat, 17 May 2025 10:25:19 +1200

Owen Davian: Who are you? What's your name? Do you have a wife? A girlfriend? Because if you do, I'm gonna find her. I'm gonna hurt her. I'm gonna make her bleed, and cry, and call out your name. And then I'm gonna find you, and kill you right in front of her.

Oh.. okay I understand it now. I absolutely get the hype for this franchise. This was a huge step up in my opinion. Tom Cruise is peak Cruise at this point and PSH is playing a phenomenal villian.

This does so much that I enjoyed you get a better look into IMF with Laurence Fishburne and Billy Crudup's characters. The entire film has a ticking clock element behind it so the pace is frenetic and it's just 100 mph from the jump. I absolutely loved it and i love that the crew keeps growing with incredible characters.

]]>

Mission 71384a Impossible II, 2000 - ★★★

Sat, 17 May 2025 08:09:47 +1200

A complete style change from the first film which is fun but jarring at first, there's way to mich slow motion and karate moves for a franchise that felt so grounded in the original.

It doesn't stop it from being a good time tho, Cruise looks great and Ving Rhames is back as well! The final 45 minutes is really fun and the constant mask fakes out are ridiculous but hilarious.

]]>

Shooter 3b2v1u 2007 - ★★★★

Fri, 16 May 2025 05:58:41 +1200

Mr. Rate: They also said that artificial sweeteners were safe, WMDs were in Iraq, and Anna Nicole married for love.

The Day the Earth Blew Up 335w3i A Looney Tunes Movie, 2024 - ★★★½

Thu, 15 May 2025 15:12:01 +1200

Daffy Duck: Do you have any idea how hard it is for male ducks to lay eggs?

Bro imagine living with Daffy Duck with how much that man spits when he talks.

I have always loved Looney Tunes and those classic cartoons, the animation is great in this and the voice acting is incredible. Definitely had me laughing out loud a couple times.

A Minecraft Movie 112w1i 2025 - ★★½

Thu, 15 May 2025 02:18:14 +1200

Somehow worse than i expected but funnier than I thought it would be. It was a little too much for even my ADHD riddled brain so I can't imagine what a normal adult gets out of this.

This movie is a fever dream, im curious if there was any direction when it came to dialog or was this just a turn on the camera and let Jack Black and Mamoa cook movie. It's crazy this will end up being the biggest movie of the year but im not shocked.

Mission 71384a Impossible, 1996 - ★★★½

Wed, 14 May 2025 13:28:22 +1200

Finally my first watch of this franchise has begun in preparation for MI8 coming next week! This one definitely feels dated with some of the technology but it still was exciting and unpredictable with a really great action scenes at the end. The score is incredible (obviously) and Tom Cruise is so cool as Ethan Hunt.

]]>

Game Night 21l38 2018 - ★★★★½

Wed, 14 May 2025 08:36:04 +1200

Potentially still the best comedy made in the last 15 years, the movies hilarious and its filmed so well. Every comedy wishes they had scenes like they egg heist.

The Two Popes 4n1s2b 2019 - ★★★★

Tue, 13 May 2025 09:32:21 +1200

Loved this, I found it funnier than I expected and more heartwarming as well. Two incredible actors giving incredible but subtle performances. Obviously has phenomenal costume design and incredible set design recreating the Vatican!

Black Bag 4n555y 2025 - ★★★★

Mon, 12 May 2025 06:12:52 +1200

Steven Soderbergh continues to put out 2-3 movies a year and he somehow maintains a quality that puts him up with some of the best directors working today. Fassbender and Blanchett are great in this but I really enjoyed Tom Burke's character.

Pineapple Express 3285s 2008 - ★★★★

Sun, 11 May 2025 11:26:34 +1200

One of the best comedies from a era of really great comedies. Rogan and Franco obviously had a ton of chemistry bc they continued to work together! Unfortunately Franco had to go and ruin that but they still managed to put out some good films this being the best of them.

Thu, 8 May 2025 05:43:28 +1200

When i watch movies that are this unanimously loved i always think "well it can't be that good" and once again I was wrong this is incredible.

Miyazaki is turning out to be the most consistent film maker I've watched and I really cant wait to finish his filmography and the rest of Studio Ghibli.

Dax Shepard is so funny in this, this does not seem like my type of movie at all but for some reason I like it and it's always a fun watch when I just want to throw something on.

Just as funny to me as the first one but more ridiculous. I can't believe they only made 3 of these they feel like movies they could have made 10 of.

Sun, 4 May 2025 10:40:09 +1200

Watched this exactly as Harold and Kumar would have wanted me to. Super enjoyable and very funny I wish we still got comedies like this.

Neil Patrick Harris: Yeah, I've been craving burgers, too. Furburgers. Come on, dudes, let's pick up some trim at a strip club. The Doogie line always works on strippers.

Freaky Tales r544t 2024 - ★★★½

Sat, 3 May 2025 14:24:44 +1200

As a big basketball fan I definitely never expected to see Sleepy Floyd murder dudes with a Katana.

Freaky Tales takes inspirations from so many classic films and makes it fully it's own. It balances strong violence and humor very well as well as having a list of big name actors in small roles. Definitely one that i think more people should check out!

Hot Tub Time Machine 495b4 2010 - ★★★

Sat, 3 May 2025 08:41:38 +1200

The intro to Lou's character is something I won't be forgetting anytime soon. Absolutely loved that and I thought the rest of the movie was pretty funny and the ending has a nice twist on the time travel idea.

]]>

Thunderbolts* 584g4j 2025 - ★★★★

Fri, 2 May 2025 13:32:39 +1200

We might be so back??? Thunderbolts* is a big step in the right direction for a franchise for a franchise that needed something positive heading into a big next 3 years.

The characters are great and they are all explored very well especially Yelena and Bob. The action scenes are really fun and different than you would expect from a MCU film. I loved how deep and emotional this film is and the script never undercuts the emotions with a shitty joke or a funny moment it allows you to feel the emotions and what the characters are going through.

I really hope we get more of this group especially Bob's character in the MCU going forward. The second end credits scene was phenomenal btw felt like old MCU for a second there.

Thelma 6c3q56 2024 - ★★★½

Fri, 2 May 2025 07:02:10 +1200

A really sweet and heartwarming movie about getting our older and less independent. Really enjoyed this and it got me in the feels several times. I thought all these actors did a great job especially June Squibb.
