  • Alien: Covenant

    Alien: Covenant 2017

    ★★★★ Rewatched 06 May 2024

    A severed head slowly turning in the water.

    This should have made nine billion dollars.

    ★★★★ Rewatched 01 Apr 2022

    Rad as hell. I still wish we got more answers from Prometheus, but whatever. If I can't have that, I'll happily take Ridley going fucking berserk instead.

  • American Hustle

    American Hustle 2013

    ★★★★½ Rewatched 12 Feb 2019 3

    In a better world, Bradley Cooper would currently be an obvious front runner for his 2nd Oscar, and this movie would have cleaned house at 2013’s Academy Awards.

    And Trump would currently be in the middle of 20+ year jail sentence, while Trump Jr. is fired from his job at Men’s Warehouse for sniffing the jeans.

    But that’s beside the point. This is easily the best Goodfellas knockoff and parts of the two are even on par with each other.…

    That cat is so fucking cute

  • Arrival

    Arrival 2016

    ★★★★★ Rewatched 12 Feb 2020

    Simply one of the most luscious, invigorating, smart, and devastating science fiction films ever made.

    Come back to me.

    Every frame of this is perfection, and it might not even be my favorite Denis film. That's TBD until after I rewatch BR2049. Even if it’s #2, goddamn it is this great.

  • Batman

    Batman 1989

    ★★★★★ Rewatched 14 Oct 2020

    A magnificent, gaudy, supremely entertaining piece of pop art.

    We don’t talk enough about how much Danny Elfman’s score slaps. Or Jack Nicholson’s JPL (jokes per line).

    Oh, and a quick PSA: Batman counts as a Halloween movie.

  • Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice 2016

    ★★★★ Rewatched 09 Mar 2021

    I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a movie rely so much on news footage to tell its story. Snyder uses it for exposition, literally explaining the story as it happens and providing commentary so the audience gets what he's going for.

    This movie is so dumb. I love it.

    If the Snyder Cut isn’t this dopey and nonsensical, I will be very disappointed.

    ★★★★ Rewatched 10 Aug 2019 2

    Zack Snyder didn’t fail, he just flew too close to the sun.

    This rating isn’t as sarcastic as you think it is. I fucking love this movie. 

    Ultimate Edition, obviously.

  • Blade Runner 2049

    Blade Runner 2049 2017

    ★★★★★ Rewatched 22 Sep 2020

    Bumping this up to the Full Five, baby.

    Should have done it in February but I was too drunk to remember.

    I’m sure Dune will be fine and all, but for my money Blade Runner 2049 will remain Denis’s great sci-fi adaptation. 

    But as good of a job he does directing (holy shit these #lewks) it’s Hampton Fancher and Michael Green’s script that really brings this home. Very few sequels justify their existence from a storytelling perspective, which makes me…

  • Blade Runner 2049

    Blade Runner 2049 2017

    ★★★★½ Rewatched 18 Feb 2020

    Current drunk me: this is a fucking masterpiece bro oh my god. Denis punch me daddy. Ryan bash my face in. Roger knock my fucking teeth out.

    Future sober me: Blade Runner 2049 is what all sequels should aspire to be. It expands upon the world set up by the original, mining a deeper meaning while expanding the scope of the original, a gold standard of sci-fi storytelling. Can be watched on a loop until oblivion.

  • The Bourne Identity

    The Bourne Identity 2002

    ★★★ Rewatched 13 Jun 2021

    More jumpy and uneven than I remember, still pretty cool though.

  • The Bourne Supremacy

    ★★★½ Rewatched 14 Jun 2021

    Still fun, but I’m not enjoying rewatching this series as much as I thought I would.
