Directed by: Paul Feig

Written by: Rebecca Sonnenshine, Freida McFadden (based on the book)

Starring: Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried, Brandon Skenlar, Peter Colondro

Cinematographer: John Swartzman

Editor: Brett White

Wow! Definitely better than I expected. Great flow to the movie. It’s very engaging entertaining well lit fundamentally strong story. Acting was definitely on point the twist in terms throughout the movie made you sitting on the edge of the seat for two hours and 11 minutes seems to fly by. Definitely don’t know what to say except it. It wasn’t anything that I expected. It is way better and I’m not really those kind of movies generally but I’m glad I watched it. It was so intense at times just wondering what was gonna happen. And I feel like they ended the movie full circle which I guess I like those kind of movies. Definitely worth a watch is a true thriller/mystery film no bullshit.

Blade Runner

1982

Directed by: Ridley Scott

Written by: Hampton Francher, David Peoples, Philip K. Dick (novel)

Starring: Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young, Edward James Olmos

He’s probably fun for his time. But I felt like the story was kind of boring. The time was cool especially I’m guessing in 1982. They probably really pushed the limit in terms of filmmaking but for me it was just yeah it was overall just not that fun I guess so I thought it was gonna be more interesting. I think they pay too much attention to the actual set design of costumes that they do the story line.

Dead Man’s Wire

2026

Directed by: Gus Van Sant

Written by: Austin Kolodney

Starring: Bill Skarsgard, Dacre Montgomery, Al Pacino, Colman Domingo

It’s kind of crazy that I never heard of the story. It’s very interesting. It’s also really cool to see some of the original footage at the end of the movie and how the technology has changed and how truly blessed we are to have such technology in our pockets and it’s very grateful for that. I enjoyed the movie got a little tired during it. It’s very slow certain parts, but it makes sense cause pretty much all in one area. And Al Pacino did a great job and if the father really didn’t do that, it’s kind of crazy that he just wouldn’t fucking give to the guy and he’s putting his son his risk, but I’m not sure if that was just for the movie or not but pretty crazy as well. Overall just shows what happens if a man meets his breaking point just like the movie I saw the other day no other choice.

No Other Choice

2026

Directed by: Park Chan-Wook

Written by: Donald E. Westlake (Novel The Ax), Park Chan-Wook, Lee Kyoung-Mi, Don McKellar

Starring: Lee Byung-Hung, Son Ye-Lin,

It was dark, I guess it was a comedy maybe in Korea, but I didn’t understand many of the jokes. And it kind of just followed what the trailer showed. The center of photography was great. The music was awesome. The flow was kind of what I imagined I guess. The acting was very good. It was just a man will to provide for his family. I guess a man’s kill lol

The Matrix

2009

Written & Directed: The Wachowski’s

Staring: Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne, Carrie Anne Ross, Hugo Weaving

Editor: Zach Staenberg

Cinematographer: Bill Pope

OK, I’m not sure if I remember correctly, but I feel like there was a line when Keanu Reeves was a top of the rooftop and he said “okey-dokey free my mind before he tried to jump and fall. I guess nobody makes it on their first jump. It is an amazing movie. I remember seeing it at the Pickwick and probably 1999 and just being blown away. It’s part of the reason why I became a filmmaker and I’m kinda let it be dismissed over time but coming back to it. It really reminded me why I like making movies. Also just the correlation of what the matrix really is and it’s when AI took over the world. It needed more power so it’s using humans and pods because we’re like 115 V batteries and as we die, our black sludge gets turned into food for all the other humans in the pods and they live in the matrix just to power the AI pretty powerful shit specially nowadays with all the AI shit going on needless to say it was very happy to see the movie again revisiting it 27 years later.

Dune

2021

Directed by: Denis Villaneuve

Written by: Jon Spaihts, Denis Villaneuve, Eric Roth, based on the novel by Frank Herbert

Starring: Timothee Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Zendaya, Oscar Issac

It was an adventure for sure. It took a while for me to settle in. But now I’m excited for part two. Becoming a fan of Timothee and excited to watch him grow.

The majestic lands of the film are felt. The sound design and cinematography were on point. Immersed in a deserted kinda way. Excited to see the outcome.

Sinners

Written & Directed by Ryan Coogler

Starring:

Michael B. Jordan

Wow.. intense doesn’t do this movie any justice. It was emotionally demanding. Once the mind and body tensed halfway through it held the rest of the movie just to be set free near the end and he held the baby. Not normally my cup of tea vampire movies. But this one just hit different. Way different. Filmically just all around hit the marks cinematic, sound on point, musically driven. Felt bad for the girl tha left the theater during credits. The ending was uplifting. Also the dance music scene that shows the different generations was beyond amazing!

Song Sung Blue

A sucker for a good music based film. I had a few tears drop. The Hugh Hudson duo was fluid. Not a Neil Diamond fan by any means but really enjoyed the music throughout the show. Intrigued to see the documentary now.

Just realized directed by Craig Brewer thought I knew that name. He did hustle and flow. Love this guys work!
