It's far from perfect. Some of the most egregious mismarketing I've seen in a hot minute and far more concerned with ideas and themes of love than telling an all-encoming story, but for some reason, just totally worked for me. Maybe it's my Cancerian love of love and all its beauty and horror. Still, there's something deft in Materialists's tone shifts, observations, and ideas on how we find what we need in interpersonal relationships. Despite Song's notable directorial style making everything around the characters seem eerily liminal and set-like, there was a warm heartbeat thumping under everything.

Also, d*sha jumpscare in the first ten minutes. Also weird audio editing/mic peaks and the thought of Chris Evans being a broke, unappealing suitor in his late 30s totally broke immersion

this movie has everything: mid CGI sharks, jai courtney in his underwear, addison rae with bad filler and even worse acting abilities, and the makings of a great creedence clearwater revival jukebox musical

a mulberry saved my life

Every morning I wake up, unable to shake the desire to go right back to sleep, I often groan and wonder why I haul over the coals over and over. This morning ritual of wondering why I'm awake and alive to do anything has become just that: a ritual, a rite I repeat nearly every morning in my car. But lately, the early summer dewy twilight replaced the winter's icy darkness. My mornings are now illuminated by beautiful red sunrises and soundtracked by mourning doves outside, which have always been my favorite bird call. It has made every day's beginning so much more special and beautiful, so much more worth it. I feel lucky every time I see the sun rise, even when it feels like I'm watching from what can feel like a grave.

Taste of Cherry feels omnipresent in its ideas; it's about nothing until it's about everything. It's about the sadness, the unknown, the ambiguity and indifference, but also about the joy, the kindness, and the perseverance. It's equally about a nihilistic morning ritual and the soft coos of a mourning dove.

textbook abjection and a crazy use of "untouched" by the veronicas. i had fun with it until i didn't!

as someone who is indifferent to tim robinson's brand of comedy, friendship very brilliantly inverts so much of his humor to illustrate the inherent narcissism of being a comedian without ever letting his actual stylings of humor fall by the wayside. honestly eerie and discomforting to see robinson so outlandish and disconnected for someone whose comedy (from what little i've seen) is so satirical and loud. it works brilliantly!

prince is the gayest homophobe known to man. performances of the best soundtrack of all time from one of history's most electrifying performers happen between the most mid tubi original you've ever seen

Best soundtrack of all-time, most beautiful four women ever but especially Angela Bassett who absolutely tears up every single goddamn scene, perfectly melodramatic and soapy while also being so sincere, Wesley Snipes..... it's a bit flawless!

this movie crowning renate as the princess of ijbolistan before delving into self-concerned surrealism

imagine having all this potential for critique for the us military, its horrors in modern-day colonialism, racism, imperialism, and how horribly it leaves veterans after serving, then still ending with a "but we're so happy we did and i am so proud to serve" like fuck you!

also very weird the white male director's self-insert was a black woman... made me very uneasy
