  El Topo 1970

  ★★★★★ Watched 15 Apr 2023 2

  97/100

  yet again I watch a jodorowsky and feel absolutely stumped for words, while simultaneously overcome with thoughts. a complete deconstruction of Spaghetti Western ideologies and filmmaking methods, of godlike egos shifting to humility and occult nightmares where rabbits just randomly die after some guy tripping on peyote shows up. yet amidst all of its coked-up chaos, El Topo manages to carry its own extremely human sense warmth to its subject matter. violence is excessive and hilariously over-the-top, but treated…

  Memoria 2021

  ★★★★★ Watched 29 Jan 2023 2

  100/100

  memoria is a film about how isolating life is. a reality where people talk and exist without a hint of shared interest and communal thought, so deeply disconnected from themselves that it becomes an experience of watching life in the permanent shoes of an outsider. it's a sensation i feel a lot when going through my life, a disconnect from ones self and the feeling of lost existence that comes along with it. as if im broken or something.…

  The Coronation of TM King Charles III and Queen Camilla 2023

  ½ Watched 12 May 2023 14

They have been told that much of the funding is going to events celebrating the coronation.
  While it is a massive…

  Suzume 2022

  ½ Watched 14 Apr 2023 333

  4/100

  makoto shinkai makes another vapid 120 minute film about the power of love, and the brilliance of McDonalds, except with a fucking chair as the manic pixie dream character, and an amount of scenes focusing on feet that would make Tarantino laugh. the use of a genuine tragedy like 3/11 that killed 19,000 people as a background point for a “NOW ITS TIME TO CRY SCENE” and nothing else is absolutely fucking insulting, i don’t care if the whole…
