    Joker 2019

    ★★★★½ Rewatched 08 Jan 2025

    After a decade of box office dominance from the comic book movie genre, we got one of the freshest, most interesting and most provocative additions to the genre with Joker. While other comic book films depict good guys with capes punching bad guys with capes, Joker has something to say while telling it in a very engrossing way. 

    Joker is the origin story of the iconic Batman villain. We first see him as Arthur Fleck, a man who lives alone…

    Late Night with the Devil 2023

    ★★★★ Watched 10 Jan 2025

    Found footage is a horror sub genre that has been done to death over the past twenty years so it’s refreshing to see a film tackle it in a different way.

     I loved the dynamic between Maverick and Rooster as Rooster resents Maverick for what happened to his father and Maverick doesn’t want to be responsible for another death. They both learn to…

    12 Angry Men 1957

    ★★★★★ Rewatched 20 Jun 2022 2

    This is probably the greatest bottle film of all time. Other than the opening scene and the closing scene, the movie takes place in one room and never cuts away to anything else. When modern day movies are aiming to be bigger, louder, and faster, it’s refreshing to see a movie that uses excellence through simplicity. This film manages to stay engaging entirely through dialogue. There are so many fantastic lines in this movie that are chills inducing. I could…
