the first 30ish minutes had me hooked. emily creeping around like a ghost had me so nervous, but as it went on, i was just like “what is even happening rn??” the tension died out and i feel like i didn’t really get to know the characters. it just got messy and i wasn’t too satisfied by the end. the vibes and aesthetic were great, but it just didn’t hit like i wanted it to. Geraldine Chaplin gave an amazing, compelling performance though.

this movie is so ridiculous and that’s definitely putting it lightly, but idk it’s honestly grown on me and has become one of my guilty pleasure movies😭 the drama, the chaos, the dancing?? just so unhinged. and they did kyle maclachlan so dirty with that fucking haircut like i’ll never get over it

this was the most campy fun girlypop crazy insane movie ever

didn’t enjoy this as much as 28 Days Later, but it was still pretty solid. and imogen poots was so littleeeee

after being slightly disappointed by the Firefly Trilogy, i thought i’d give Rob Zombie another chance and watch this movie because the plot sounded interesting. however, i didn’t really like it and still don’t quite vibe with his work. the dialogue in his movies is just so odd, and i am not a big fan of the editing in his movies either. this film had a cool concept, but it was just all over the place. the set design was pretty cool though

yeah, i didn’t really like this. i get that the main character is supposed to be insufferable, but i could barely finish it. billy is a violent, homophobic asshole with no redeeming qualities. he also kidnapped a girl😭  “but he changed at the end 🥺” … yeahhh, I don’t care. not to mention that Vincent Gallo is basically playing himself and reportedly treated Christina Ricci terribly? not really interested in separating art from the artist here. i genuinely don’t get why this film is so romanticized. it had some cool shots here and there, and i liked the color palette, but that’s about it.

molly ringwald is so fabulous🙂‍↕️🚬

TWO BOYS. ONE CAN’T . THE OTHER CAN’T FORGET. 

god, i really don’t have a lot of words to describe what i’m feeling rn. i will say that the whole situation with brian suppressing all of those memories and being so confused was actually so relatable and heartbreaking.

this was a really hard watch — i had to look away a bunch of times. it’s a powerful reminder that hate gets you absolutely nowhere. Edward Norton’s performance was absolutely insane. cannot believe that man has 0 Oscar’s. also, the cinematography stood out to me, especially the slow-mo shots. they were really well done.

can confirm that this is what happens when you get your first period

the “where is my mind?” needle drop at the end are u actually kidding meeeeexzhgsbdkyehsv

“I saw her one last time, but she didn’t see me.”

the yearning, oh my god. that feeling of loving someone you can’t have was TOO MUCH😭. the cinematography was absolutely incredible.. seriously just so beautiful. now i love a good score, but i actually really liked the quietness, and it made those couple of scenes with music hit so hard. and the final scene — so intense, so heartbreaking UGHHH😭. this film did feel a bit slow at times, but it was still great

i actually liked this a lot more than i thought i would😭 needed more ray liotta though

i haven’t stopped thinking about this movie ever since i watched it a few months ago, but for some reason, i haven’t actually rewatched it until now. this was the first David Lynch film i’d seen, and this sounds so cringy, but like i had never seen anything like it, and it has stuck with me ever since. i’ve watched a few of his films since then, and he was truly so good at capturing these fever dream like scenarios. Blue Velvet is just so unsettling and the dreamy score is so beautiful. i could go on and on, but i’ll stop.🫠

holy shit a movie where de niro doesn’t have a new york accent

one star for ariana greenblatt

my lewis pullman obsession is coming back in full force somebody pls send help

"We all need mirrors to remind ourselves who we are."

my first Nolan film and it did NOTTT disappoint oh my goddd. just when i thought i put the pieces together, boom— some more confusing shit would happen. i lovee films with unreliable narrators and this one was great. also really loved Guy Pearce’s voiceover like i could listen to him talk all day.

“Ferris Bueller, you're my hero.”

i cannot believe i put off watching this for so long. seriously, it is such a gem of a film, and it had me laughing every five seconds. i really loved all of the fourth wall breaks, and the parade scene had me giggling and kicking my feet

yeah i loved this sorrryyyy. only thing i didn’t really like were all of his scenes at work🥱

i went into The Last Picture Show excited, but it didn’t really hit the mark for me. the cinematography was beautiful and there were a few scenes that stood out, but overall, the characters felt kinda bland and hard to connect with. something was just missing, which kept it from fully landing for me. i also reallyyyy relate to the feeling of being stuck in a small town

patricia arquette is the most beautiful human to ever exist my goddddd this was such a fun watch. unlike a lot of ppl, i loved the score, which i noticed sounds super similar to Badlands (1973).




and james gandolfini </3

i somehow went 19 years without ever knowing the plot twist in this film and it didn’t disappoint. wasn’t really scary, but super unsettling. I have heard the score many times and it’s just so iconic

“not many people have basements in california.”
-
“I do.”
 
RUNNNNNNNNNN

probably would’ve been utterly obsessed with this if it came out when i was like 13, but idk i just didn’t love it as much as everyone else. lisa’s outfits were incredible though

pink, wooderson, and mitch walking into the emporium in slow-mo actually altered my brain chemistry

those couple minutes of stefani telling her side of the story sendsssss me every time😭

“you got anyone who’s gonna miss you?”
-
“not really.”

god idk what it is about this film, but i just LOVE IT. yeah, we didn’t really learn anything about the characters and it’s quite literally just them driving around in a van for 2 hours, but the vibes are just ughhhhxzbvjdj. it really feels like you’re on a road trip with them, and something about them just having fun and acting stupid is comforting

take a shot every time elvis says “baby” challenge

a hard watch that made me DEEPLY uncomfortable and lily mclnerny gave an incredible performance, but i feel like i’ve seen so many movies similar to this one and it didn’t really bring anything new to the table. the story is still extremely sad and has unfortunately been the reality for many young women

This review may contain spoilers.

sam was so real for freaking out over all the leopard print stuff

“i mean, I was josh safdie's muse when he wrote uncut geeeemms, do you know what I mean? like things like that thaaat”

she out-freaked his freak and i gotta say it was funny asf

this walked so dazed and confused could RUNN

ik bro said money was tight, but you would neverrrr catch me STILL staying at my house after realizing he got my address. like damn stay in a cheap motel or something IDK😭

this film deserved the same amount of hype that Anora got, and I will die on that hill

has some really funny moments, and jonah and channing have insane chemistry, but I still prefer the first one. the end credits are also hilarioussss

DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TO A HANDSOME GUY LIKE ME IN JAIL?? ITS RHYMES WITH GRAPE! it rhymes with grape..😔

“they all lived happily ever after” i say as they drag me back into the insane asylum

jesussssss he was such a douche, and we learned nothing about him? like what was the point of this movie..🌚 just way too long. best part was johnny cash doing that gun thing with his guitar

reallyyyy beautiful cinematography, like the overall atmosphere and aesthetic were everything. i also liked the character charlotte, but the film kinda fell flat towards the end

i’m not even a big requiem for dream fan, but this was such a rip off of that film, and not a very good one😭 love brittany murphy though </3

brie larson was incredible in this, but I just didn’t really find myself connecting with the story or characters like most people did

this is how i’ve always pictured people from LA

this was seriously SO. GOOD. like this film truly deserves all the hype. the score is genuinely so insane like girl I was levitating. also, the scene where all the vampires were singing/dancing around in a circle was creepy as fuck. but, like some other people, i wish the last act wasn’t so rushed. overall, i still thought it was great! PLEASE go this film if you can!!

i can’t even put into words how angry and sad this film made me. it being based on true events just makes it 10x more devastating. i think it’ll stick with me forever.

“ladies, look how beautiful we are!”

america ferrera, i love you

this movie definitely had its funny moments, but it also made me somewhat sad because many of us had that one friend who completely transformed into someone you couldn't even recognize anymore and only talked to you when it was convenient for them. i enjoyed the first and last acts, but somewhere in the middle, it was just getting too repetitive for me. Peter Falk and John Cassavetes both gave great performances though and i will definitely watch more of their work in the future.

i was really into this, but then the relationship between leon and mathilda got weird🌚 some cool action sequences, but pretty dull overall

YOU WILL NEVER BE SAN JUNIPERO!!!

this had so much potential but was poorly executed in my opinion. and the bad acting was so distracting
