First Man 2018
When this first came out, a lot of people called this slow and boring. But I found the entire movie thrilling and a slow burn epic. Damien Chazelle is a wizard with his dazzling filmmaking and sharp storytelling. It keeps my interest the whole time til the end where it hits you with such a gut punch emotionally. Also the score by Justin Hurtwitz is some of the best music composed for a movie this century that helps add to the emotional journey throughout. My favorite movie of 2018.

Saving Private Ryan 1998
The first 20 minutes are some of the most haunting scenes I’ve seen in a movie. A pure phenomenal directing job by Steven Spielberg.

Independence Day 1996
Jeff Goldblum survived a dinosaur outbreak AND an alien invasion in the span of a few years. What a legend!

The Outpost 2019
It’s become tradition that on every Independence Day, I watch The Outpost. As I’ve mentioned in all of my other Letterboxd reviews for this movie, this isn’t just a random movie to me. My brother is in this movie! This was his first big movie he had done, and he had to spend nearly two months in Bulgaria training and filming for the movie. Meanwhile, back in LA, I’d be dog sitting for the director as they made movie magic…

The Black Phone 2021
The real “horror” in this movie was having to answer the phone of an unknown caller. My social anxiety could ever.

Minions: The Rise of Gru 2022
Even after seeing the movie, I’m still trying to wrap my head around the fact that MINIONS: RISE OF GRU is already one of the highest grossing movies of the year and it’s only been out for one weekend.
