The Evil Dead (1981, 2013) review
Rated: 3.5 / 5 Book of the Dead There aren't many horror films like this I actually enjoy. By all accounts, I shouldn't be enjoying this one. It has a lot of the tropes I really hate. Some dumb broad thinking it's a good idea to wander off into the woods by herself, in the … Continue reading The Evil Dead (1981, 2013) review
A Clockwork Orange (1971) film review
Rated: 4 / 5 It's funny how the colors of the real world only seem really real when you view them on the screen. Spoiler Warning This is one of the rare cases where I believe the filmmaker made the right decision removing the last chapter of the novel the film is based on for … Continue reading A Clockwork Orange (1971) film review
My Top 50 Favorite Culturally Impactful Film Moments
When one asks why films are so important, I say it's for the same reason tales as old as time are important. A common tale most, if not all, know about and discuss amongst each other. Common themes, imagery, moral lessons, religious implications, political positions, quotes, iconic characters, or even just an event that happens. … Continue reading My Top 50 Favorite Culturally Impactful Film Moments
The Adventures of Pinocchio (1996) and Pinocchio (1971) dual review
I couldn't... help myself. Watching the Disney film again made me curious about the other adaptations of Pinocchio. I heard the best one is this 6 episode miniseries Le avventure di Pinocchio (1972), but that's beyond my current capabilities because I don't understand Italian (and there doesn't seem to be any dubbed or subbed version … Continue reading The Adventures of Pinocchio (1996) and Pinocchio (1971) dual review
Pinocchio (1940) review
Rated: 4.5 / 5 I may have to revise my top 50 films list after this. Yet another childhood film I haven't seen in a long time, only to fall in love with it all over against after all these decades. It's been a while since I've seen a film I thought was so good … Continue reading Pinocchio (1940) review
Alien (1979) analysis
Rated: 4 / 5 Wokeness: 1.5 / 5 This is a film I saw back in the day, well after I had seen and become a fan of its sequel Aliens (which is still my second favorite movie of all time). At the time I just thought this was a mediocre warmup to greatness, where … Continue reading Alien (1979) analysis
Critiquing Critics #1: One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961)
Also known as Criticizing Critics, or Judging the Judges, or in some cases just being a dick. I miss being able to comment on other's comments, because they get too butthurt over it, and aren't willing to stand their ground and defend their position ('cause they know they're foundations are shaky, and if they didn't … Continue reading Critiquing Critics #1: One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961)
One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961) review
Rated: 3.5 / 5 Wokeness: 1 / 5 Got the urge to rewatch this after around 15 years since the last time (man it's been so long since I've seen this movie). Pretty much because I heard about this new Cruella movie Disney is making, which I'm currently not interested in seeing, because I have … Continue reading One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961) review
