J. K.’s review published on Letterboxd:
I normally don't do anything like this. I just don't even know what to say or do anymore honestly. Last year was absolutely brutal in my cinematic journey. According to letterboxd stats, the third worst year of all time for my personal taste. I'm sitting here, completely apathetic, bored beyond belief, and simply unmotivated to even watch anything new.
I don't want to give up, but I'm just so mentally exhausted. I have spent the last few years pushing myself to watch anything and everything I can to broaden my cinematic horizons. To find films that will resonate with me. I have certainly found some, and I am so damn happy to be able to have been able to experience them. I just feel like for every one film that I connect with recently, I find 5 more that piss me off.
Do I go on a binge of my favorites? Do I take a break? Do I just try to fight through it? I don't think there's a perfect answer. I don't expect anyone to respond to this. I just needed to vent. I need to express how I feel about something that has been so incredibly important to me, yet suddenly polluted by doubt. I love movies, and I love letterboxd, but I don't love the way I feel right now. Maybe it's just this moment. Maybe I'm being overdramatic. Maybe I'll wake up tomorrow and get back on track. I love all of you, and all the support and kind words you've given me. Hopefully this is just a rant we can all laugh about later. I'm just so lost though, and I needed to say something...
