What Was The Last Movie/Anime You Watched?

<< < (534/534)

marvelvscapcom2:
Melania - Shallow, sycophantic and absent a single unguarded moment, melania is a near two-hour infomercial disguised as a documentary. It does nothing that a sloppy campaign ad on network TV doesn't do, it's like a skippable ad that you can't skip. And extremely tone deaf and boring.  And that's me attacking it with no bias. I just like learning.  I want documentaties to give insight into the person. I'll watch a documentary on anyone or anything. This is very dull surface level propaganda.  I walk away empty.


the basketball diaries - Basketball diaries is a true story based on the life of Jim Caroll. A man of many professipns who comes from a troubled past. The movie is a reflective transparent look into his life of drug addiction and excess. And the 2nd half of this film perhaps portrays the nasty, debilitating struggles of addiction.  As someone who comes from one of the Opioid capitals of America and see addiction in my friends, and even family. Leonardo Dicarprio perhaps paints that somber portrait of self destruction better than anyone. It's terribly moving.

Cartagia:
The Shadow Riders - Very well-crafted for an early 80s made-for-TV joint. Pretty good cast, sturdy L'Amour plot (though nothing special). Music doesn't really fit the production.

The Housemaid - Campy trash but entertaining campy trash.

Strange Darling - Just an absolute showcase of killer performances from Willa Fitzgerald and Kyle Gallner. Really loved the dynamic between them. Looks absolutely phenomenal, with really striking lighting.

Return of the Street Fighter - Fights are good, plot is non-existent, missing some of the brutality that made the first stand out. It's totally fine.

Wicked: For Good - Look, I know the first half wasn't perfect, but I still really like it... what happened? The second half of the play isn't as strong, either, but they really dropped the ball across the board here.

Dead Heat - The overall concept is a lot of fun, and it wants to play everything fast and loose, but the humor is super hit or miss. Might have been better played completely straight.
