| Last movie I watched was the Sonic movie. I honestly wasn't expecting it to be really good or complete shit so I can't really say I was surprised when I saw it. Much like Detective Pikachu, I thought it was good enough for what it was and overall a fun watch. |
| Mission: Impossible - Fallout Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation Entertaining films, but I do miss Paula Patton in these. |
| Querelle. Unfocused and poorly acted for the most part, but still a visually stunning, poetic and layered film about self-discovery. 7,5/10 |

| Just watched The Crow. It's one of those movies I would probably fell in love when I was a kid and would be a die hard fan. It's edgy and gothic as hell but with a style. It has its own charm. I really like it. I'll totally check out the original source material, the comics. Rest in peace Brandon Lee. Amazing last performance m8. |
| Good ol SAW(2004) You're not gonna believe this but this is my first time watching this movie. This franchise was one of my phobias when I was a kid. I vividly remember the posters of the movies in theatres. Especially the poster of the second movie stuck in my brain. Two ugly dirty fucking fingers... Now I think its a brilliant poster but back in the day it gave me the creeps. After the childhood, even though I wasn't scared of the movies anymore, I didn't wanna watch them anymore because when I saw there were 5 or 6 released movies, I imagined SAW as a cheap ass cash grab franchise. So, I never touched them until today. As I said, my expectations were pretty low. I was expecting to see some gore and scream and that's it. However, this movie is much more than that man. I'm really surprised. Instead of cheap gore, this film is actually a nice crime-thriller. There is a nice mystery in it and the pacing is pretty solid. Movie manages to keep you on the edge of your seat all the time. The acting is also surprisingly acceptable and convincing. I like the movie overall. After watching the movie, I've learned that the movie was made by two chill and broke Aussie guys lol with a low budget. My mind was blown and my respect for this movie is just skyrocketed. I just love the come across with these humble and genuine stories. Just two amateur guys with enthusiasm and energy try an ambitious project, then somehow climb to the top lol. Here's a small interview from these guys, if you are interested. |

| Romeo + Juliet, I really don’t know why I watch it. It’s supposed to be innovative, whacky and over-the-top, which it kinda is. But seriously I feel like it’s not that all impressive. I mean, if you watch it you’ll know it’s very dull, not-so-special and very out of place a lot of the times. Please, humans from Letterboxd, stop calling us ‘disgusting elitists’ for not liking this movie. 2.5/10 Although the latest movie I’ve actually watched was a rewatch of Dr. Strangelove. Initially I gave it a 7, which is already enough to be in my favorites, but as for yesterday’s viewing, I gave it a 9. Probably the funniest satire ever, disturbingly so. With this watch, I also realized my taste has drastically changed ever since I was a high school student. I used to think anyone who dislikes A Clockwork Orange or The Man Who Sleeps was stupid, but now not quite (of course in fact I was the stupid cuck). I think those stuffs suit the stupid teenage me more. |

| Django Unchained - 9/10 Great and hilarious western. Awesome acting, especially with Leonardo Dicaprio having such an evil role. |
| Police Story by none other than Jackie fucking Chan. This man is the best action movie actor ever lived. The stuns he made in this film just blew my mind. Bravest man alive, he puts the whole Hollywood to shame with his brilliance. There are no good action movies like this anymore. |
| My Hero Academia The Movie 2: Heroes Rising (6/10) A decent standalone MHA film with tons of flashy action and gorgeous animation, though it primarily works on fanservice. Mainly for fans of the series. The new villains aren't all that interesting except for the dog guy. The middle part was the strongest; the final battle felt like a cheesier version of All Might vs. All for One. Gotta say, though, the dub was surprisingly great. |
 |
| Last movie I watched was Parasite. When I finished watching all I could say was, "...Goddamn." Highly recommend it. 10/10 |
 |
| The Thing. It's such a delight to watch these old school horror movies. The practical effects are mind blowing. I really appriciate and admire the effort. Fuck cgi. |
| Come and See. One of the best films I've seen, period. A peerless lead performance and a perfect synthesis of formal elements make it the most harrowing depiction of war I've personally watched. 10/10. |

| The Sonic Movie: I was thinking to myself, "Wow, is Agent Stone and Dr. Robotnik a ship or something?" Then I was like, "Nah, this is abusive". And then I looked up some things after the movie and the actor for Agent Stone was like, "Heheheh yeah" and is retweeting some pretty gay stuff. Now I'm just like, "Oh shiz, maybe it was supposed to be a one-sided love". And now I just want to see it again. It was an interesting aspect to put on the character. I was thinking he'd be a pretty bland character without it. He reminds me of Matsuka from Toward the Terra-- coffee and everything. Anyway, the movie wasn't terrible, but there were so many things that made one think, "Err, well what about this though...?" There was a lot of suspension of belief expected of the audience-- honestly, the writing just felt poor at some times. There was a lot of focus placed on just trying to fit in one-liners. Sonic was pretty damn annoying. Honestly, they didn't make Sonic a very likeable character, but at least he was relatable in a way. Characters were often overly accepting of their situations, often no repercussions for some rather questionable things. Onward: I had no idea what to expect with this movie. I hadn't really read a synopsis or anything. At the beginning of the film, my friends and I figured it was a dad movie, but by the end we realized it was a brother movie all along. That was really sweet. It was really nice to see a movie tackle a brother film with a modern twist. We see the buddy film here and there, but seeing this definitely made me take a step back for my own brother. Animation was fine, everything came together relatively well. There were actually quite a few parting messages the film left the audience with. Nothing preachy, but things to think about. Voice acting had its highs and lows, but nice overall. Something about the film didn't quite make it pop visually-- I guess there was a dullness to the colors and perhaps the character designs were a bit generic. Still, it's not a poor film. A shame not many will be seeing it due to the virus. |
| I watched two movies today because I'm a lazy bastard who sheltered himself in his house. Evil Dead 2(1987) and Frailty(2001). Evil Dead 2 was totally ridiculous and wacky. I thought I'd see a good scary movie but on the contrary, it was a solid satire to horror genre. If you like over the top stuff, you gotta check it out. Frailty was a Se7en-like religious serial killer movie. However, biggest difference between them is the style. Se7en keeps you on the edge with its dark and depressive visuals and storytelling, it feels like a thriller. On the other hand, Frailty feels like a drama with the pacing and storytelling. You don't feel the intensity but it manages to keep you curious. If you like this kind of stuff, you can check it out. |

| Cats (2019) I only got a semi chub twice ... 5/10 |
 |
| Get Out (2017) - 4/5 A weird socio-political horror film with sparks of comedy genius that will still be relevant for years to come. The unsettling nature of the film makes up for some "meh" aspects but it invites a rewatch to catch all the intent Peele wants you to see. |
| A Serbian Film (2010) - 3/10 My mates and I were getting bored of watching scary movies so a quick google search of "the most fucked up film" gave us this movie. Oh my. Please don't watch it. You edgelords have a field day with this though. |

| The Abyss - 7/10 It was an enjoyable trip. For some reason, I've always enjoyed settings that are basically at the bottom of the sea/ocean, but man... things like the Mariana Trench scare the heck outta me. Thought it was going to be a little more horror than semi-disaster/action&adventure, but hey, it was entertaining. The "otherworldly being" aspect was a little strange though. |
| "You know you've reached peak quality when a doujin is better than the actual source series." (Eg. To LOVE-Ru) Just to list a couple of biases. Likes: A good story, characters, writing, romance, a good plot twist or something that breaks expectations (In a good way), 'backstory' and justice. Dislikes: Bad romance, too much fanservice, the harem genre, yuri, yaoi, and bad writing. |
| Akira (1988). I'll just insert my review of it on the forum for the film itself: ryan77999 said: Finally saw this a few hours ago. I thought it was pretty good. The animation and direction are excellent, especially for this time. I had to keep reminding myself that this came out in 1988 instead of the 2000s. What's worth noting is that I have already read the manga, and I find it interesting that the ending That being said, my most major gripe is the following: Overall 8/10 would recommend |
| Some of you never watched Bakugan Battle Brawlers on TeleToon in 2008 and it shows. REST IN PEACE KENTAROU MIURA |

That's why it reminds me of highschool. Good times lol. Ot: Watched a classic tonight before going to sleep. A Nightmare On Elm Street. Classic horror always feels better. So cheesy yet entertaining. I just love Freddy's design. Such an iconic villain just by the looks. |

| I decided to watch The Last Samurai again. I watched it only once and it was when I was a kid. This movie is probably bullshit for the Western audience but for a guy who lives in a non-Western second world country, it was really touching. It's the perfect summary of the inevitable and tragic defeat of traditions over the modern Western mindset. Like Japan in this movie, rest of the world had to bury their traditions to the ground in order to adapt advanced Western countries and not consumed by them. I'm not denying the wonders of the modern world and I can say that I'm not a conservative guy by any means but it's just saddening to see what people went through in the process. Taking away one's identity by force is not something easy to watch. It's not an exaggerated melodrama bullshit, it's just the harsh truth which is hard to swallow. I appreciate that a Hollywood movie actually emphasises that. |
| The Blair Witch Project(1999). As a guy who likes to watch creepy real life footages that feels like they came out of fucking dark web, I really enjoyed this movie. It felt like there was no acting in it, I felt like I was watching actual people that were lost in the woods. Also, I love the fact that the tension was built with the total confusion and panic from the characters instead of cheap jumpscares and gore. You don't know what the fuck is happening, just like the characters. That's the real horror. Also, when I understood what happened in the last scene, I got the fucking chills man. It was very simple but such a powerful shot. |
| Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood - 6.5/10 Pretty good film, the Leo/Pitt duo have amazing chemistry and compliment each other well. Surprisingly enough, I think Brad Pitt really stole the show here and was nice to see how humble his speech was at the Oscars as he gave a ton of respect to Leo, basically saying he "rode his coattails". I think the movie did a good job at capturing the time period as well, bit weird seeing that Bruce Lee scene though since I doubt he would ever act like that, but this is considered an alternate universe after all and not meant to be completely historically accurate. I think the pacing suffered a bit in the middle parts, but that ending was definitely epic(like most Tarantino movies). |
| Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn Very messy, but I did like the last third of the film. Not much better than Suicide Squad. 5/10 |
| Manhunter(1986). As a big fan of tv show of Hannibal, watching this version of Will Graham and Hannibal Lector was delightful. Overall pacing, atmosphere and visuals were pretty satisfying. However, sometimes acting felt a bit off and the soundtrack was way too cliche 80s stuff. It doesn't fit to a thriller movie to be honest. Still, it's worth watching for Hannibal fans for sure. |
| Ichi The Killer(2001). This is some anime level weirdness and not surprisingly, it's a Japanese movie. If you like fucked up stuff, this is the gold mine. Look no further. |
| Togo (2019) One of the best films of the year. It seems to have gone relatively unnoticed though. Always difficult to hold back the tears when animals are involved... 8/10 |
| Train to busan a month or so ago [funny enough a few days after is when the virus broke out in south korea lmao] Movie was "ok" some moments felt seriously cliche and cringe worthy but the whole train concept was unique. |
 |
| I watched the good old Halloween(1978) before going to sleep. I feels rather like a thriller with its suspenseful nature and lack of gore and jumpscares. It's an iconic slasher movie. The soundtrack is also pretty solid. |
| Heat(1995). Robert De Niro vs Al Pacino. That's all I gotta say. It's a fantastic crime drama. Watch this shit. |
| I was bored and didn't know what to watch today. So, I watched Snatch again. It's the best gangster action/comedy you can ever see. Absolutely brilliant in every way. Even Tarantino can't make another Snatch. |
| watched 1 ep of tiger king and god damn, everyone's bat shit crazy |
| Mr. & Mrs. Smith I weirdly love the premise of this movie, but it doesn't have a satisfying ending. It's just "that's it? No revenge scheme or the such?" Still, it's nice seeing this kind of relationship, since it's weird... plus, fucking after nearly killing each other and destroying the house seems weirdly romantic. |

| Uh...- Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru: Washio Sumi no Shou 3 - Yakusoku ( https://myanimelist.net/anime/34376/Yuuki_Yuuna_wa_Yuusha_de_Aru__Washio_Sumi_no_Shou_3_-_Yakusoku ) It was very good. People kept criticizing the movie with their excuse being "it's a copy of Madoka!" and overlooked its goodness. Well, the quality's kinda shit for a movie but I loved the story and everything else about it. Probably one of the best magical girl anime out there. Truly a hidden gem. |
| Parasyte- 7.5/10 I came into this with a different set of expectations so i was pretty misguided into believing what i was watching. The film honestly is a great build-up slowly progressing into it's climax. The horror aspect is what blew me away, the mystery and confusion in the basement, to the unknown of the people there, the psyches of the characters and what they would do. The cake scene is one of the most terrifying shots I've ever watched, I almost jumped from my chair. Overall a very good movie but not really my interest. I suppose objectively it should be higher but the comedy aspect wasn't very enjoyable for my tastes. Also the climax felt very abrupt and seemed to contrast from the theme of the movie. I understood it from the characters part but it felt like a different movie compared to the prior bit. |
| Hair 1979 interesting movie musical about the hippy movement and the Vietnam war and american 60's era social politics. ending music number and scenes are great, rest of the movie's ok. |
| Au Hasard Balthasar bloody brilliant but I'll need some time to think it over before I can say much more than that |
| Dolittle (2020) - 7/10 A pretty okay movie, was fun to watch, great humor and Robert Downey, Jr. did a great job as Dolittle. Very chill movie that you can watch with everybody tbh. |
物事は良くなりますか ？ |
| last movie i watched? starwars marathon. 7/10 -3 cause i dont li,e the disney versions. |
 |
| Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer(1986). It's a solid horror with realistic atmosphere. It's not something you can easily see from old horror. This movie is unique for its time I'd say. |
| Sonic! As a life-long Sonic fan, I was pleasantly surprised. Sure, it's a kids' road trip movie without too many ties to the games, but it was pretty good regardless. The more vulnerable, lonely take on Sonic was interesting and I even got emotional a few times. Every reference to the games brought an ear-to-ear smile to my face, of course :) Things I'd change: -Sonic doing his S-rank breakdance instead of the f-word -Eggman singing E.G.G.M.A.N. by Paul Shortino instead of his awkward dance sequence Wanted to go see it at least 2 more times but Corona happened :/ Can't wait for the sequel! |
| Pulp Fiction (1994) - 9/10 Quentin Tarantino at his finest. Engaging characters; non-stop action; and intricately woven individual stories that produce a mesmerizing whole. |
