Infectious style and presentation. Story is pretty good, but falters a little near the end. Music is catchy. Generally liked the messaging. Little animation touches were great- there are a ton of silly little faces and moments. It's a fun watch!

Felt like a return to Marvel form (finally). The villain is a little underdeveloped going into the third act, but the action is good and the writing is coherent. It's a good (if crowded) ensemble that play off each other well. Great casting all around.

Watched the Keira Knightley / Jack Davenport audio commentary, which was fun and silly. There's some fun trivia in there, plus a lot of talking about where things were filmed.

A great documentary about one of the greatest raw athletes of all time. Just an interesting dude. Nicely put together!

Mackie does a decent job trying to drive the emotional core of the movie, but it feels scattered and emotionally unfocused. Carl Lumbly turns in the only noteworthy performance and he's hardly in the dang thing. There are 3x the characters they need and none of them have enough depth. And basically everything going wrong being explained by magic mind control makes for an unsatisfying plot. There are 5 credited screenwriters and it shows. The fight scenes are neat, but it spends the whole time trying to cash in on a series of emotional payoffs it hasn't come close to earning.

Is there some troubling masculinity on display here? Sure. But it's also a pretty fun concept with a great set of performances driving the whole thing. There's a lot of great jokes while still delivering a pleasant, if well-trod, story.

Cool documentary about the making of The Emperor’s New Groove. Very Sting-focused, since his wife made it. It’s funny though, since I don’t think of hims as basically part of that movie at all. Interesting to see where they started vs where they landed. Wish we got a little more about the film itself, but seeing into the creative process is always fascinating. Centering the narrative around Sting, who is sort of an outsider to the whole process, is a pretty good angle.

Does a great job developing the relationship between Jim and Silver. Not to mention the stellar cast- I don't know how they kept putting these together! Also an extremely Martin Short performance. Beautiful animation, to boot.

Besides being funny with an unreal cast, I'm always impressed by its intricacy. Every little joke, every visual gag, every little reference. The whole thing is a delight.

Cast, especially Anna Kendrick, kills it. But the tone is all over the place, so each of its vibes (thriller and goofy comedy) water each other down so only mush remains. The costume department must have had a blast though

Charming overall, but runs pretty long. Great cast and more songs than you remember. Still a good message, but could be edited down without losing much.

Hadn't seen this since I was a kid. It holds up pretty well! The animation and fight choreo is great (save some spotty CGI) and the story is light but fun. Great cast and a fun soundtrack. Great for what it is!

Utterly original execution. Hijinks that really pick up steam after the first third of the movie. Runs a little long, but goes to some truly unexpected places. I think some of what makes Looney Tunes so perfect is their short duration. This is a ton of them stacked together, which loses some of that brevity. Still a cool time though.

A nicely done documentary about the importance of the Coast Redwood. Does a good job justifying why the trees are important to their ecosystem and the people (both native and otherwise) of California. I liked the information about the history of the trees and how their parks came to be. Has some good interviews with subject matter experts, but leans a little heavily into people forming emotional connections with the trees themselves (which is fine for them, but made for a less convincing argument). There's also some interesting social science around these trees and the effect of Awe, which was neat, but maybe hard to replicate.

Absurd and irreverant while having a great heart at its core. Lots of moving pieces, but the narrative comes toegther well. Light and fun, just like summer should be.

I've really got a new appreciation for it after watching the documentary. They took a classic story, mixed in some pretty heavy emotion, plenty of laughs, and a killer soundtrack to make something truly special.

A spy thriller with little action, mostly dialogue. Great cast, with a good mix of stars and lesser known folks. Tense, but engaging. Has just enough spy tech that it's interesting, but not so much that the plot really relies on it. Fun to unravel who's behind it all.
Watch #12025-05-16Released: 2025
There are definitely some rough edges, but it's much more charming than I expected. How much they care about each other really got me in the end. You do need to look past some dated jokes though
Watch #12025-05-12Released: 2004
Old timey and charming. A little tough to tell some of the characters apart and the stunts are pretty dated, but the cast is good and the mystery is fun. The leads have good chemistry. Whole thing was much funnier than I expected it to be, too. I can see why it started a series!
Watch #12025-05-04Released: 1934
A great dive into the production of a great movie. Plenty of cast and creator interviews, plus a step back to look at the film's impact on people of a certain age. It's a fun watch!

It’s mostly a schlocky 90s action computer thriller, but it does make some precient points about how much of "truth" lives in computers and how badly that can go if they start lying. Ther eare better hacker movies and Sandra Bullock never really plays it convincingly, but it had its tense moments.
Watch #12025-03-29Released: 1995
It’s basically "Wet Hot American RomCom". I loved its commitment to subtle (or not) absrudity and it’s wildly large ensemble. Tightly written too, no lines were wasted. Perfectly captures 90s NYC romcoms.
Watch #12025-03-28Released: 2014
Pitt and Clooney carry this dark action comedy hard. The story is simple (and makes a little less sense the closer you squint), but it didn't stop me enjoying the ride. The cast is focused (good!), the shootouts minimal (also good; more time for dialogue!), and the runtime 20 minutes longer than it needed to be (oops!). Great to see them both back together though.

A chilling adaptation of a great book. broadly focuses on the right things. Every casting is perfect and Rosamund Pike is superbly unsettling.

If you can look past the central joke is all about prison rape (a big if), you're rewarded with a genuinely funny movie. Dense with jokes across a variety of topics. Kevin Hart doesn't do a _lot_ to break out of his small-loud-sidekick role, but he has some good acting moments.
Watch #12025-03-08Released: 2015
As a comedy of errors, leans more heavily into errors than comedy. There _are_ a wild series of errors though, so the writing gets a plus. They come relentlessly though, which makes it sort of an exhausting watch up until we reach the film's classic ending which saved the whole thing.

Charming, yet more modern feeling. Lots of great jokes. Pacing was a little slow and the story was less focused than it could have been. That's what happens when you translate 30 min movies into a 90 minute one. Felt like they could have tightened it up a fair bit.

Holds up remarkably well for as old as it is. Jokes land, there's more plot than you'd expect, and the costuming is very cool. It's also stuffed to the gills with cameos, which is pretty fun.

Exhausting theater kid energy. Had some interesting perspectives on everyone's journey through their art and the paths that can take. But, felt disjoint, with too many characters. It also just seemes like drama for drama's sake- they just kept throwing bad things at these kids and everyone seemed miserable. It's ending was especially unsatisfying- it's a song where the ensemble pretends like everyone is fine when all evidence from the film points to the exact opposite. Whole thing was a real slog.

I enjoyed the heck out of this one. Though the actual plot and villain don't bring a lot to the table, it never forgets to have fun. I'm not sure it would stand on its own if you'd never seen any other marvel things, it rewards that familiarity with great payoffs. It was great to see Hugh Jackman back in the saddle. The dialogue was funny and the references right up my alley, but YMMV. More than any other recent Marvel movie, it feels like it understands what makes these franchises worth watching.

Some steller performances held back by just the slowest and lowest stakes narritive I’ve seein in a while. Disappointed, as I’ve loved most of McDonagh’s other work. This wasn’t a dark comedy, it was just… dark and boring and melancholy.

Extremely intense. Unbelievable performance out of Simmons. The examination of ambition and perfection is interesting, but all the characters come off as assholes who didn’t learn anything. Maybe that's "leaving it up to the viewer", but it left me with a sour taste. Definitely earned its intensity badge though.

Probably the strongest of the live-action remakes. It’s interesting - the parts of it that were new from the original were great. It’s a worse musical, you can’t replicate that. But it expanded the world and characters very effectively. Glad we watched it.

This move is largely very pretty and the music is pretty good. But, if you remake a movie, you have to change and/or improve it. This remake negleected to do that- it’s actually remakably identical to the original with CGI instead of hand-drawn animation. Some bits are better, but others are worse. Hard to see why they bothered.

One of my favorites. Irreverent, slapstick, and boasting a superb ensemble. There's something new to catch in every viewing!

Great performances and cinematography, but a lackluster plot and pacing. Definitely a step outside of his usual, and the weakest of his 3.
Watch #12022-09-15Released: 2022
Great vibes, cinematography, and cast. The plot felt a little... formulaic? Had the same beats as most action movies, especially Marvel. Good watch and is ultimately touching, but felt a little too well-trod.

Superb cast, decent heist. Good vibes, but I could have used a little more from it.

Silly and charming. Music is fine, but cast is great. Sort of funny to see how unhinged a disney princess running around the real world would be.
Watch #12022-08-28Released: 2007
Honestly pretty boring. No one learned anything. 15 minutes of plot spread over 90 minutes. Some nice montages and music, but otherwise not much going for it.
Watch #12022-08-26Released: 1986
Interestingly touching. Showcased a small story in a big world. Had vibes of A Very Fatal Murder, which I dug. Fun cast, too.
Watch #12022-08-23Released: 2022
An interesting take on the classic story. Lot of wistful staring and lackluster songs
Watch #12022-08-20Released: 2004
Little slice of life about people maybe falling in love. Charming at bits, but overall pretty bland and low budget. Some ok songs, but it was fairly repetitive. Female lead was pretty weak, too.

Childish, but generally charming. Some of the support cast is superb, others are more forgettable.

Intense and thrilling. Great performances all around. Production design was incredible. I thought the story was a little too heady and unresolved. There were a lot of bits happening and it felt like it lacked focus. Parts were weird for weirdness sake. But it was also really funny in bits. Lots to like.

Couple of good jokes and a good cast! But sort of nonsense otherwise. Forgettable music.
Watch #12021-05-03Released: 2004
Sort of cute, very old-timey musical. Good cast, but a lot of the songs were duds.

Over time, it's hard to remember the context of this movie, but it is a fun one.
Watch #22021-05-02Released: 1974
Energetic, certainly. More action than mystery though.
Watch #32021-04-14Released: 2009
Some good fight choreo, but lots of bad CGI, characters, plot, and basically everything else.
Watch #12021-04-13Released: 2020
Certainly an original take on a love story. Great period work, decent characters. Uneven pacing. Good vibe, but sort of light on actual things happening.

Does a better job than I remember of not treating him like the hero. Snappy writing, good characters.

What a ride. Great frame story, great cast, good plot. Good music and pacing, too. Dense as heck.
Watch #12021-04-07Released: 2020
Neat enough world building, good cast. Rote story and mostly boring plot though. Cute enough for kids, but lacks staying power. Not really an Easter movie
Watch #12021-04-04Released: 2012
Cute enough. Had a great soundtrack and visual design. Good cast and nice ensemble. Nothing groundbreaking, but enjoyable.

Superb comedy. Wide ranging, yet tight. Fun all the way through.
Watch #12021-04-01Released: 2020
Muppets being so bawdy was sort of funny, but it didn't really come together in a satisfying way. There were a couple of good puppet specific gags, but mostly wasted potential on a thin racism metaphor.

Actually pretty cute. Good hearted in a way I didn't expect. Hard to keep the characters straight and everyone was sort of nuts, but there was great fight choreography
Watch #12021-03-22Released: 2016
Cute theme with mostly troubling characters. Good cast though!
Watch #12021-03-21Released: 2007
Tense movie. Some bits didn't age as well and the focus on the toys was weird, but the escalating tension was good and the performances were superb. It wasn't as good hearted as I might have liked it to be- it felt sort of cruel. But, not everything needs to be.

This one had a lot of potential but didn't quite land. Really interestingly shot, interspersed with good noir tropes and odd cutaways. Some ok characters and great costumes and set. But, story was lacking.

The story on this one was weaker, but I was more invested because we'd gotten time to know the characters. Perfectly serviceable sequel.

Doesn't really hold up as a satisfying sequel. Some cute moments, an ok plot eventually, but a letdown after the first.

Felt unfocused. Too many villains, too cheesy (even for this), ultimately a boring plot.
Watch #12021-02-14Released: 2007
Actually pretty decent first half, but the fight scenes weren't great and the villain didn't hold up. Very mid 2000s movie.
Watch #1*2021-02-14Released: 2005
Cute, stacked cast, cool sets. Music was ok, story wasn't really novel in any way, but it's a fun watch.
Watch #12021-02-13Released: 1997
Super interesting. There's a few layers to it, plus some good magic. I like that it's unusual. It talks a lot about how you see yourself and our perception of ourselves and the world around us. Definitely worth a watch, but pretty odd.

Didn't really need Rasputin, but the story with the grandmother is cute.

Great story, good characters, cool animation. I can see why it's a classic.

I enjoyed it, but boy was it a lot to take in. Wild story, good cast, great action. Interesting all around. Maybe too heady. Good though!
Watch #12021-01-13Released: 2020
Strikes a great balance between heartfelt and hysterical. Great references to past Batman movies, too.
Watch #22021-01-12Released: 2017
Very strong finish. Climax was great, the world felt big and dangerous.

Boy is it a lot of camping. Shows the darker side of the world well, and the cast is always great.

A multi-person stand up special set in a funeral home for 2020. Some bits were good, but it felt pretty flat
Watch #12021-01-07Released: 2020
It was good, but felt rushed. They cut it pretty far down and it ended abruptly. Good performances, especially Umbridge. Did well with what it put in, but felt a little empty. It would be another one I'd be lost by without the book.
Watch #1*2021-01-05Released: 2007
Liked it more than I thought. Cast is great, some genuinely funny bits. Good story in there, though it's definitely a style.
Watch #12021-01-04Released: 1988
Deeply dry parody of what a year this has been. Good way to pinch it off.
Watch #12020-12-31Released: 2020
Pretty funny all around. Stellar cast. Maybe too many rape jokes. But, solid movie.
Watch #1*2020-12-30Released: 2011
Story is decent, but the best part is the timing of the music and the action. Superb cast, too.
Watch #22020-12-30Released: 2017
Liked it more than I expected! Starts heavy on the Army propaganda but the back half is more of a character drama than a heist. Suffice it to say, stuff goes wrong. Great cast too. Wish it had more music.

I love all the different takes on love. Some of the jokes don't age as well, but I still like it.

Decent, if chaotic, heist. Very action heavy, but pretty ok. Definitely the lowest common denominator. Some cool pickpocketing scenes.

Very cute and stylish movie. Feels good. Understandably great music.

Some bits I liked- performances, music, sets and costumes. Story was weak and over-long. Great cast too!
Watch #12020-12-26Released: 2020
Absolute mess. Bad action scenes. Some cool design, but it was lost in sub-par writing and performances.
Watch #12020-12-25Released: 2020
This felt like a weaker movie- it left a lot of detail out to keep to the action scenes, which is understandable, but left the movie wanting. Superb performance from Tennant.
Watch #1*2020-12-23Released: 2005
Pulled a lot of stuff out of the book, but dang if the time heist isn't fun. I'd be real confused if I hadn't read the books. Not a lot of resolution.
Watch #1*2020-12-22Released: 2004
Definitely a good one, but the pacing felt off and the effects didn't hold up as well as those from the first. One of my favorite books, though.

Plot is a little trite, but the worldbuilding is great. Good music and atmosphere, but weak on the character side.
Watch #22020-11-26Released: 2020
Cute, but totally unnecessary. Had its moments and it's a testament to the team that this was even a 3/4, but you're not missing much if you don't see it.

Visually great, but story and character growth really weren't there, which was a disappointment after the first one.

Really boring and uninteresting? Characters were fine but we don't get invested in anything. Great graphics, but really nothing else going for it.
Watch #12020-11-24Released: 2017
Honestly a cute and tight story. The supporting cast isn't as good as the first, but they did a great job with dory's journey of discovery.
Watch #22020-11-23Released: 2016
It's drop-dead gorgeous, but that's really all it has going for it. The story never clicks and it's the same few peril points over and over.

Cute, good soundtrack. Ironically, doesn't hit the same emotional heights as some of the other Pixar movies.

Cheesy, but cute. Good cast and music. Shoddy pacing and pretty well-trodden plot, but a good watch.

Heist movie! Plus they confront their mortality. Well paced, emotional, a perfect ending.

Great cast, good songs. Oddly, the opening CGI of blood flowing looked really dated. Holds up pretty well though!

Characters were more grating than I remember, story is a little doofy, but it is a good watch

Probably my favorite spooky movie. A brilliant parody of the horror genre while embracing it wholeheartedly. Whip smart and unexpected at every turn, this delights with jokes, gore, and mystery.
Watch #52020-10-07Released: 2012
There are bits of this I like, but a lot of it is crass and creepy in a way I don't enjoy.

Still holds up, is cute tnough. Some bits age funny and there's definitely a 90's bullying vibe, but it's some light fun.

It definitely had some cool action, but the story was uncompelling and the characters had basically no development. Also not a musical. Honestly would have been stronger if it was a standalone movie with no ties to the original. Nice representation in the cast though, so it has that going for it!

Charming old movie. Definitely a different style than today's heist movies, but definitely enjoyable.

Decent enough, but not super compelling from a character or arc perspective. Wasn't much of a twist and all the action scenes were just them reading out numbers.

Better than the second. Fewer characters, more focused. Some good action and moments.

Really funny and honestly has some very relevant bits. But also there's literal blackafce and some bad racism. Still pretty funny overall though. Sad they didn't do more with Jamie Lee Curtis. Her arc was weird and shallow.

It was... interesting. I feel like I missed something? It was a very slow burn but it didn't really go anywhere. No one really had a character arc and it felt unfocused. Cool period piece, but it was all flash and no bang. Very well stilized, but the plot itself was underwhelming. Beautiful cinematography though, and some geniuinely funny scenes. It was definitely a love letter to Hollywood and, as a series of largely unrelated scenes it has good moments, but it's no masterpiece

This was... a mess. Hardy's performance was great. He wasn't a like able character, mostly, but he grows on you. Venom is weird. A lot of jokes didn't quite land.

A light and fun movie. Most of the characters were pretty boring except the hustler, who was great. Hit a lot of the same beats as 11, which is tough because it's worse. The style is also similar, but a little less polished. Some weird plot holes and there's surprisingly little tension, but the former didn't bother me at time of writing.
There's a line about the movie being for little girls who want to be criminals. I get that and appreciate the representation angle, but I wish girls had better movies to look up to.

Not a fun movie, certainly. Shot well. Pretty intense and emotionally draining. It's... a surprisingly small story, and it’s told pretty well. Points off for lack of much humor and how replaceable most of the characters are. They’re hard to tell apart and don’t have a lot of personality anyway.

Watch #22017-05-24Released: 2006
A fun romp, but it misses some of the great character development that happens in the later films.
