The real sequel to White Men Can’t Jump

Hadn’t rewatched this since it came out, what a masterpiece. The first time Chris falls into the sunken place is master director shit.

God has spoken to me using Tom Cruise as his vehicle. Some of the most beautiful shit I’ve ever seen on the big screen.

This was a bummer. Felt like a John Wick movie mashed with a cheap Amazon TV series. It was blatantly obvious which scenes Chad Stahelski had to come in and reshoot. The ending teased that they’re gonna come back to the Ballerina well and it just sucks seeing that they’re probably going to kill this sacred franchise before they’re done with it.

A movie about how far a man should be willing to go to be with Rebecca Ferguson

Imagine if this whole thing was shot on film. I wish there was more digging in to the state of humanity that they briefly discuss at compound in Manchester. Really thought that’s where this was heading, but alas. Still a great time.

I too would drown myself if it meant I’d be woken up by Rebecca Ferguson

Possibly the most fun I’ve ever had in a theater. This was so well executed

Story was messy and lacking, but the action sequences are so well done. Casting Philip Seymour Hoffman to just have a 2 hour cage match against Tom Cruise was brilliant and elevated this one way above its flaws.

I had a great time and lots of laughs out loud, but unfortunately my lasting memory of this movie will be that I watched the Wizards get hosed in the draft lottery 2 mins before it started

First half: coughing baby
Second half: hydrogen bomb 

John Woo clearly had The Matrix on his mind

I regret to inform myself it’s Tom Cruise season

This set a record for most sexual tension in a Marvel movie. And yes when Sentry puts his hands around JLD’s neck, it counts

Christopher Nolan watched this movie in 1999 and found all the people he was going to work with for the rest of his career

Make Business Cards Great Again

UPON A REWATCH WE RAISE THIS TO A 4.5! THIS MOVIE KICKS ASS

I want what she has (courted unorthodoxly for years by a trust fund kid who doesn’t know how to talk to people of romantic interest)

The horniest movie I have ever seen

On the big screen, hell yeah

If I had to make a list of the 5 most fucked up things I’ve ever seen on a movie screen, this film would have 3 of them

Coogler is so close to his magnum opus. This was really fun, beautifully shot, great score. Vampires are so fucking back.

Can’t tell if David Lynch thinks nothing of humans or thinks a lot of humans

Hoooooly shit man. Deeply upsetting and deeply anti-war. Close to calling this one required watching.

Each rewatch inches this closer to Top 4 territory.

I noticed Anna is Dylan G’s wife in Severance. Difficult life. U North kills your family, then you end up in a loveless marriage, your husband severs himself, and you fall in love with his innie. Incredibly tough scene for Anna.

Unintentionally hilarious credit for Uma: “UMA THURMAN AKA MOMMY”. They ain’t wrong tho. Incredibly satisfying double feature. I would pay so much to get Part 1 and 2 together in a theater.

Every time I think I overrate this movie in my head, I rewatch it and realize it really is that fucking good. The battle in the restaurant is up there with my favorite movie scenes of all time, and the ending is so well done. Uma Thurman is such a force of nature.

Top tier music and drugs movie. Thank you Marty

My cat would’ve been a better space cat than Jones. I think she’d help fight the alien.

First time watching the Director’s cut on the 4k disc. Ridley removed 6 mins then added 5 mins of deleted scenes. Feel like he messed that up a bit and should’ve just added the deleted scenes instead.

My issue with Andrew Garfield is I’m pretty sure this character is how he is in real life

This is what The Social Network thinks it is

Knew we were in for a good ride when I saw Praetorian Jack show up.

Once I saw Noémie Merlant I knew we were getting tears. Nearly perfect film.

Black Bag appetizer. Great airplane movie.

Marry me Tilda Swinton

Sean Baker could never make Breaking the Mummy’s Code. Cannot believe this wasn’t nominated for best picture. I blame A24.

An important film about why it’s never too late to embrace your true self. A little messy in the back half, but still a really impressive piece of art. The Lynch is strong in this one.

Kneeling at the altar of Bong Joon Ho. One of the most intense social and class commentaries you’ll find and very cool to see how his storytelling style evolved up until Parasite.

My cat would’ve died 6 minutes into this

There is nothing Oz Perkins cannot do. This movie is a riot

If Ridley Scott started a church I’d in a heartbeat.

Sometimes AMC screen unseen is not very good and that’s okay
