I struggled on rating this one. It’s weird, like two different movies in one. The first hour of this movie is SO SLOW AND BORING, and the last half hour is like rapid-fire screams and thrills.
Read more...Okay, I feel like this movie was better the first time I watched it? And yeah, there’s some of that “well, obviously” because I already know most of the answers this second time around, but… I don’t think that’s all.
Read more...Well, I have now finally seen this movie. And it was…okay. I can see why it’s a cult favorite, but I wasn’t terribly impressed.
Read more...So, I had mentioned before that there’s a Matthew McConaughey horror movie I knew I liked, and this is it.
Read more...When I was watching (and not totally enjoying) Jigsaw I was thinking a few of the actors looked really familiar (in addition to a barely recognizable Laura Vandervoort), and it turns out, yes, two of them are in THIS movie I’d seen before.
Read more...Okay, this isn’t the worst movie I’ve watched this year, but it might have the worst cinematography?
Read more...This is not a four-star movie. Honestly, it’s probably not really a three-star movie. But it was SO FUNNY, I have to give it extra credit for that.
Read more...This might be another nostalgia-driven rating. I think it’s also a “replay rating” of sorts…it’s really hard to put yourself into the same frame of mind as when you’re seeing something for the first time.
Read more...I’m going to try to avoid the “F” word here, but I liked this one about as much as yesterday’s. It’s about the same length, the same pacing, and (mostly) the same story.
Read more...I have to apologize to all of you. It seems my word of the year is “fine”. It’s only March, and I’ve already called 11 movies “fine” this year! Well, let’s make it 12, because…you can probably guess where I’m going here.
Read more...I feel like this movie had a lot of really interesting potential and visual effects, but didn’t quite land the “scary story” piece quite as well as it could have.
Read more...This is another movie that I heard a lot of hype about last year when it came out. People really liked it! I was surprised by how much I heard about this movie, particularly for a Spanish-language film.
Read more...I liked this movie! It was quiet, but not slow. Georgina Campbell (also excellent in Barbarian) was great, which is good because it’s just her we see through most of the film.
