Review: β€œChristy” is a tough-as-nails showcase for Sydney Sweeney β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… The average boxer barely spends a hour tops in the confides of the ring, taking hit after hit. Unfortunately for real-life boxer Christy Martin, her fight was 24 hours daily. Based on the harr…

Just saw BUGONIA. Truly the only reasonable β€œBeez in the Trap” TikTok should have come from Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons so why didn’t we get one??

Facebook these days will tell you tha you have 15 notifications and it’s all just pages you either β€œfollowed” 10-20 years ago or pages you definitely don’t follow that it suggests you follow that made a post six days ago that it thinks you haven’t seen yet because it can just do that.

Once they retitled Lee Cronin’s Mummy movie to The Resurrected, my first thought was β€œoh Universal’s doing The Mummy 4, aren’t they?”

A good day to watch VICE (2018) if VICE (2018) was a good movie.

Just got a screener for a film that will only get 1 Oscar nomination this year and it’s basically the most guaranteed Oscar nomination by far.

Any guesses?

I saw SPRINGSTEEN: DELIVER ME FROM NOWHERE today.

Can anyone explain to me what Jayne Houdyshell was doing in that film for one single shot, no dialogue??

Setting aside the behind the scenes stupidity, the #Scream7 trailer looks... to me, bad. No commentary, feels artificial, looks super repetitive and the trailer itself gives away a lot of the kills and the entire opening sequence. I can only hope to be surprised.

Already seeing β€œ____ movie didn’t get nominated at the Gothams! I told you it’s Oscar prospects were overblown! It’s over!” It’s the Gotham Awards, sweetie.

The #WickedForGood embargo lifts today and let me just break it now.

It’s a masterpiece. Erivo and Grande are Oscar worthy. Jon M Chu improves upon the second act of the show to deliver a magical sequel, better than the first! I haven’t seen it, but this is what my timeline will be saying.

I don’t know if anyone has said this because I don’t think Jacob Elordi looks anything like Tom Cruise but Jacob Elordi looks distractingly like Tom Cruise in the Frankenstein makeup.

A β˜…β˜…β˜…Β½ review of Frankenstein (2025) Overlong, heavily flawed but visually sumptuous take on a classic monster by a cinematic auteur that’s a little horny and very bloody, with one unfortunately miscast main romantic character but a stun...

Just watched A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE.

*super minuscule baby spoiler*

They open the Idris Elba segment with a shot of lions and all I could think about was the incredible 2022 action thriller Beast starring Idris Elba bare knuckle brawling off against a group of vicious lions.

after a month of getting screener invites from Netflix, and patiently waiting, the very first literal screener arrived in my inbox for a film that comes out… tomorrow.
