The Doom Generation 1995

★★★★½ Watched 05 Dec 2023

“Do you ever wonder why we exist?”
“No. What for?”
Saltburn 2023

★★ Watched 05 Dec 2023

Barry Keoghan is good and Jacob Elordi is especially good, but this is chic masking illogical, obvious storytelling. Pretty images in a fruitless 4:3 aspect ratio. That's all.

The Fabelmans 2022

★★★★★ Watched 25 Nov 2022

“Life is nothing like the movies, Fabelman.”

“But you got the girl!”
I hate school too Sam Fabelman. Everything I wanted it to be and more. Didn’t get to see Spielberg’s greatest works during their initial runs, but at least I got to see The Fabelmans (the latter part of his career is almost just as great).
A Spielberg movie about Spielberg is nothing if not the perfect love letter to art, particularly that greatest art in the world: cinema. But it’s also a terrifying reckoning with that art.
John Wick: Chapter 4 2023

And that’s a wrap on cinema everyone. Had a good 100+ years. Everyone that contributed did wonderful, but it doesn’t get any better than this. Let’s pack it up and go home.
