Barbie 2023
Barbenheimer - Part 2
Greta Gerwig takes a colossal swing, and knocks it out of the park so effortlessly. Barbie spins all of the plates you can think of, and yet it manages to balance all of them in a high-wire act, while also being so imaginative and enchanting.
What struck me about this movie is how strong the presence of play is here - Gerwig and Noah Baumbach wrote such a funny, intelligent, and emotionally-layered screenplay that manages to…

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse 2023
Overjoyed and so excited - it's been a few hours since I saw Across The Spider-Verse, but I just cannot stop thinking about this monumental achievement.
Where does one even begin? I knew they were going to deliver, but another watershed moment for animation?! That's two bangers in a row!
It's been a while since a film really left me in a state of constant wonder, where every moment felt like falling deeper and deeper with the art form of…

A Haunting in Venice 2023
Solid 3.5-star film, but I'm giving this 4 stars because of the collective serving & slayage of Michelle Yeoh, Tina Fey, and Kelly Reilly.

In all seriousness, I think…

After Yang 2021
"One second."
Being human is tough. You work hard, you strive to keep growing and to keep showing up, you sometimes neglect yourself, and then life shows you that you're only human.
I'm in this scary and promising stage of change right now, I know it. I feel uncomfortable, but it also feels like it's been a long time coming. I've been praying hard, wishing, and hoping for a change in my life. When you open your eyes and slowly…

Eyes Wide Shut 1999
The way the neon blue intrudes upon the Christmas lights - allure, desire, mystery, uncertainty, and intrigue traipsing on and even overtaking life when it becomes too much.
This film is another excellent watch, it's frankly too much to handle back-to-back with The Shining. Nicole Kidman is excellent in the few scenes she's got, and her three final lines just kick so much ass.
Eyes Wide Shut is dense, but the discussion on power, status & money, sex and dynamics in…
