  • What Happened To Monday (4.7/10)

    While I'm usually into futuristic films, this one didn't cut it for me. A solid cast too that I don't think did a particularly good job. " In a world where families are allowed only one child due to overpopulation, resourceful identical septuplets must avoid governmental execution and dangerous infighting while investigating the disappearance of one of their own."

  • Stay (6.7/10)

    A 2005 thriller mystery with a stacked cast. I wasnt the biggest fan of the plot and direction the movie took but I still felt invested to the end. " Sam Foster (Ewan McGregor), a psychiatrist, has a new patient, Henry Letham (Ryan Gosling), who claims to be suicidal. In trying to diagnose him, Sam visits Henry's prior therapist (Janeane Garofalo) and also finds Henry's mother -- even though Henry has said that he murdered both of his parents. As reality starts to contradict fact, Sam spirals into an unstable mental state. Then he finds a clue as to how and when Henry may try to kill himself, and races to try to stop him."

  • Boyhood (8.4/10)

    Such an interesting concept. Somehow I didn't know this movie was filmed over a 12 year span until I noticed it was the same actors just growing up way to quickly. Apparently they filmed for a couple days every year for 12 years. It shows the life of a family through the eyes of a boy whos parents go through divorce, Marriages, constantly moving locations, changing schools, and friends to milestones in their lives. " The joys and pitfalls of growing up are seen through the eyes of a child named Mason (Ellar Coltrane), his parents (Patricia Arquette, Ethan Hawke) and his sister (Lorelei Linklater). Vignettes, filmed with the same cast over the course of 12 years, capture family meals, road trips, birthday parties, graduations and other important milestones."

  • Joker: Folie à Deux (6.1/10)

    This film had good moments but a lot more cringe moments. The acting was great, I thought Lady Gaga had a decent performance. The musical aspect was a bit over the top and took away from a lot of the intense dialogue we are used to with the Joker. The first hour not a lot happened. I think it's worth watching to get your own opinion but it wasn't worth going to the theater. " Struggling with his dual identity, failed comedian Arthur Fleck meets the love of his life, Harley Quinn, while incarcerated at Arkham State Hospital."

  • La Chimera (4.7/10)

    I don't know how this got great reviews. The camera work was shot in an older type of lens, there were three different languages switching between English, French, and Italian, and it was just a slow boring film to me. " Everyone has their own Chimera, something they try to achieve but can never find. For Arthur, the Chimera is the woman he lost, Beniamina."

  • Jerry and Marge Go Large (7.8/10)

    This was a solid film. Just wasn't the most interesting concept to me even though it was a true story. It is worth a watch but nothing really going out of your way to watch. Had a good cast as well, a perfect role for Bryan Cranston. " When retiree Jerry Selbee discovers a mathematical loophole in the Massachusetts lottery, he and his wife go on an exciting, multimillion dollar winning spree with the goal of reviving their small Michigan town. However, when a selfish college student cheats the system, Jerry must find a way to make the game fair for all."

  • Wolfs (3.8/10)

    I was warned by my grandfather about this film. While it's headlined by George Clooney and Brad Pitt, this was just an embarrasing performance for them to be a part of. A lackluster film. " Hired to cover up a high-profile crime, a fixer soon finds his night spiralling out of control when he's forced to work with an unexpected counterpart."

  • Saw X (6.6/10)

    Kind of random this takes place between the 1st and 2nd movies of the franchise. This Saw seemed extra gory to me but I think that has to do with the upgrade in filming technology year over year. It had a good plot, better than most of the other films in the series. Not worth watching unless you have seen the franchise. " Hoping for a miraculous cure, John Kramer travels to Mexico for a risky and experimental medical procedure, only to discover the entire operation is a scam to defraud the most vulnerable. Armed with a newfound purpose, the infamous serial killer uses deranged and ingenious traps to turn the tables on the con artists."

  • The Place Beyond the Pines (8.2/10)

    A stacked 2012 crime/thriller cast starring Ryan Gosling, Eva Mendez, and Bradley Cooper. I thought the beginning was unreal and as the film went on it was still entertaining just not as captivating to watch. This movie I always heard of but for some reason I never pulled the trigger to watch it until now. " In upstate New York, two men (Ryan Gosling, Bradley Cooper), and later, their sons (Dane DeHaan, Emory Cohen) must deal with the unforeseen consequences of their actions."

  • American Fiction (8.4/10)

    I have been hearing great things about this film and people keep telling me to watch and it is worth the watch. The cast did a great job as well. " Monk is a frustrated novelist who's fed up with the establishment that profits from Black entertainment that relies on tired and offensive tropes. To prove his point, he uses a pen name to write an outlandish Black book of his own, a book that propels him to the heart of hypocrisy and the madness he claims to disdain."

  • Perfect Days (5.5/10)

    This Japanese film has some of the highest ratings you will see out there. It just wasn't for me. I thought the acting was amazing. It just seemed the simplicity of the film which some people find fascinating, I find lacking. " Hirayama feels content with his life as a toilet cleaner in Tokyo. Outside of his structured routine, he cherishes music on cassette tapes, reads books and takes photos. Through unexpected encounters, he reflects on finding beauty in the world."

  • The Kindergarten Teacher (6.6/10)

    Interesting conecpt for a movie but I just was a bit bored throughout the whole film. Shouldn't be on your radar despite its decent reviews. " A New York a teacher sees such great promise in her 5-year-old student that she goes to unreasonable lengths to protect his poetry talents which the teacher believes is prodigious."
