A ★★★★★ review of A Goofy Movie (1995)

“You look just like I did at your age.” “Please don’t say that, Dad.” Inspired by a story told by Jeffrey Katzenberg about a road trip repairing the relationship between Katzenberg and his daughter, this film had a surprising amount of issues during the production process. As a sequel/follow-up...

Conclave

It's a 10/10 from me. Rarely do I get this pumped for a movie from the get go and then it delivers the whole way through.

Companion

Its a 7/10 from me. Funnier than I thought it would be, wish it didn't devolve into something as mundane as killer fuckbot in the woods so quickly.

Also Sophie Thatcher is a dead ringer for young Juliette Lewis and I'm tired of hearing otherwise from my girlfriend even though I have the casting director of Yellowjackets to back me on it.

EDIT: Now she's telling me she wasn't "hot enough" for the part and why couldn't they get Sydney Sweeney or Sabrina Carpenter for the part?

A genuine classic and I’ll fight anyone who disagrees.

ok... ok....
lol
holy sh**t

I was vaguely of the cONtroverSies with representation and language and all this stuff, and the hype followed by vicious backlash around this movie, but not the details so I was curious and heck it's on Netflix anyway.

Well what I was not expecting was the absolute shambolic nature of the production and presentation. There is acting but it's laughable. There is dialogue and while I'm not a native Spanish speaker it still came across as stilted and inhuman. Entire scene are poorly lit, awkwardly framed, uncomposed. Maybe it's an "artistic" decision but it really just seems like crap film-making.
And the songs... dear lord. I felt like I was watching people discuss ideas for songs as if they were writing them, not watching the finished product. I legit thought for a sec I accidentally selected to watch some making-of documentary of the movie instead of the actual movie.

I also have a thousand other complaints but you get the point, this movie just plain sucks. Halfway through I just embraced it as a so-bad-it's-good experience.

Looks like it's a complete shit movie, even Charlie couldn't even finish it.

A ★★★★½ review of Final Destination (2000)

“In death, there are no accidents, no coincidences, no mishaps. And no escapes.” This film began life as a spec script for The X-Files in the mid-1990s, but on the suggestion of a friend, writer Jeffrey Reddick decided to pitch the concept to New Line Cinema instead. They liked the idea, and had...

A ★★★★★ review of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982)

“I've done far worse than kill you. I've hurt you. And I wish to go on hurting you. I shall leave you, as you left me ... as you left her. Marooned for all eternity in the center of a dead planet ... Buried alive ... buried alive..." While this film's production wasn't quite as tumultuous as the...

When a Disney animated movie had the guts to actually say "electric chair".

Fancy Dance (Apple TV+)

Lily Gladstone plays a career drug peddler & thief who kidnaps her niece after her own sister disappears so they can go dancing together at the coming powwow. The steal a whole bunch of cars, guns and gas while murdering anyone who gets in the way of their rampage. Perhaps improbably they also solve crimes - well, a crime - along the way, which I thought was a bit of a stretch for a 90 minute Cayuga version of Thelma and Louise.

A Complete Unknown (In Theaters)

Biopic of musician Robert Zimmerman, who weaseled his way to the top of the 1960s folk scene by cozying up to a dying Woody Guthrie, then crashing at Pete Seeger's house, then dating another successful homeowner and cheating on her with Joan Baez. The pattern is: Zimmerman meets someone who is smitten by his BDE, mooches the shit out of them and eventually spits them out after maxing out their usefulness. But for a few snide remarks from Baez he mostly gets away with it, too.

Goals, honestly.

Also, when you put it like that, it makes Bob sound like the not evil counterpart to Charlie Manson from the opposite coast.
