The Aviator

2004

★★★★★ Watched

This movie is insane in so many ways and an absolute nightmare. It has perhaps the most stacked cast out of any of Scorsese's films (I'd recommend not looking at the cast list just so you'll be surprised), all of whom give incredible performances, especially Leo. The screenplay is really strong, the camerawork and editing are both terrific, and Scorsese directs the heck out of every single scene. It's nearly 3 hours long, and yet, I never got tired and was on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next.

Feels the most like a Wallace & Gromit film. I'm so glad this one actually had a happy ending and not one that was sad or even bittersweet.

12 Angry Men

1957

★★★★★ Rewatched

This movie is tense, compelling, and filled with stellar performances from the twelve main characters. Before watching this, I didn't know a movie could be this good, but here we are. This is a movie that everybody should watch before they die. I love this movie so much.

Jurassic Park

1993

★★★★★ Watched

Wow, this movie lived up to the hype! Everything was awesome! The special effects were great, the characters were great (especially Al McWhiggin and Ian Malcolm, hoo boy), the music by John Williams was phenomenal, Spielberg's direction was amazing, and the way this movie goes from light-hearted fun dinosaur movie to a straight-up horror movie is utterly insane! It's well-acted, well-directed, well-written, tense, funny, and all-around entertaining. I look forward to watching it again!
