    Visually stunning. I wasn’t a fan of the ending. Major plot holes.

  • The Social Dilemma

    The Social Dilemma 2020

    ★½ Added

    I felt like I was relearning facts that most everyone knows about social media, while not really feeling the action the makers probably wanted to inspire. I'd pass.

    A lot of white folks' introduction into some of the legacy laws / systems that contribute to Black oppression today. Beautiful (and chilling at times) storytelling, and I feel privileged I can consume the facts in this eloquent doc without living the reality. A must watch for everyone.

    Felt like the statistics in this movie were pretty off, if you took them one level deeper. It felt like the creator was trying to create some controversy.

    Amazing film for the budget! I love to grab a glass of red wine and re-watch this flick. Great thriller concept that is well-executed, and you feel like you're a part of the dinner party. Don't lose your ring...

  • Snowpiercer

    Snowpiercer 2013

    ★★½ Added

    Conceptually, I wasn't a fan. Always trying to find loopholes in these apocalypse movies, and this one had plenty (IMO). Too much forced symbolism, not done super well.

    Casting JonBenet 2017

    ★★★½ Added

    Some people hated the format, but I thought the format did an amazing job capturing the uncertainty & speculation around the JonBenet case. I thought it moved pretty slowly though, hence the 3.5 stars.

  • My Octopus Teacher

    My Octopus Teacher 2020

    ★★★★★ Added

    One of the best things to come out of 2020. Absolutely stunning visually, and if you don't cry, I don't believe you have tear ducts! Octopuses are incredibly intelligent, and it was amazing to see the human animal bond in this movie.

  • World War Z

    World War Z 2013

    ★★★★½ Added

    This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

    I generally like zombie movies, and this one may be one of my favorites. Sound / music throughout keeps your blood pounding, and I really liked the antidote for figuring out how to deal with the zombies.

  • Train to Busan

    Train to Busan 2016

    ★★★★ Added

    Solid zombie horror flick. Soo-an is an adorable child lead who invokes both fear & the stubbornness of determined young lady!

  • Black Mirror: Bandersnatch

    Black Mirror: Bandersnatch 2018

    ★★★½ Added

    I really wanted to like this concept movie more than I did. There were some hilariously punchy moments, but I admittedly got bored with the choice selections, and happened to go down one of the longest paths to finish the movie. Mad props for the experimentation though.

  • The Platform

    The Platform 2019

    ★★★★ Added

    So I'm not usually one for super overt symbolism, but I really liked the platform concept to relay societal statuses / capitalism. Great concept and great execution. I wasn't a huge fan of the ending, so docking a star there.
