Blindspotting

2018

★★★★ Watched

How do you stay hyphy when youre out here dancing on eggshells? Blindspotting walks that line, mixing comedy with crisis, delivering bars with a heartbeat. It wraps things up a little too clean at times but because its rooted in something real, it never feels preachy. 

PS. We got a Too Short nod only 8 minutes in!

Under the Silver Lake

2018

★★★ Rewatched

A little too Echo Park for its own good, where hipster baristas moonlight as celebrity gravesite tour guides. It leans more homage than satire. The jabs at LA’s endless parade of pretentious scenes are warranted, even if they dont always land clean.

The best part? The noir score!

The Order

★★★½ Watched

Bob Mathews ain’t no Derek Vinyard, but he’s got that same messiah complex—only less swastika and more hair.

Also the idea of The Turner Diaries as a children’s book & toddler target practice is somehow more terrifying than bullets.

I envy those who still get to experience this for the first time.
