Star Trek Beyond 2016
Star Trek: Mass Effect - The Movie.
This is one of the best action-adventure flicks released in the last decade. And it's so underrated, especially here on Letterboxd.
It's written with care. There is close to no filler dialogue, everything has a value, wether it's comedic, exposition, or drama. Moments that feel like one-off things ALWAYS come back. There is a great eye for set-ups and pay-offs, it almost puts other action-adventures to shame. The movie keeps going, doesn't treath…

Superbad 2007
Superbad feels like the perfect encapsulation of those final months in high school; where nothing really mattered, yet everyone thought it did. That mad rush to make it seem like those last 4 years weren’t wasted, and that you were in on the fun that everyone else was having. If you could just have one night of fun before the ever-approaching graduation date, then it would all be worth it. You might not have been to any parties or social…

Love, Death & Robots: Three Robots: Exit Strategies 2022
Yes, thank you intelligent robots for spoon-feeding us information about the problems of the human species & civilization that we probably already know at this point. Otherwise, I wouldn't have understood the very layered themes, detailed writing & the very, VERY subtle message that is very much well hidden that our dumb baby brains cannot apprehend to think & analyze ourselves.

Tampopo 1985
Tampopo is food porn at its highest form, and a glorious predecessor to Ang Lee's Eat Drink Man Woman. It manages to demonstrate the integral role food plays in human existence, via the dazzling story of a female cook's journey of revamping her ramen restaurant.
A rom-com at face value, Tampopo blends elements of western tropes and allegorical snippets reminiscent of Dušan Makavejev. The main storyline features the fascinating titular character, Tampopo's strong resolve to improve her ramen skill, and…

Everything Everywhere All at Once 2022
Our lives are full of existential questions and theories that many feel, if true, deem life pointless. This movie wrestling with those questions and coming to the simple conclusion that, no matter what happens to be true, our lives still matter, is lovely. The few scattered moments where everything makes sense make all the failing and flailing in between worth it. And the fact that the movie manages to get there with more laughs, better action and grander scale than any modern blockbuster is testament to what filmmaking in the theatrical sphere can be and how carelessly most movies are often made.
