- DirectorDenis VilleneuveStarsTimothée ChalametZendayaRebecca FergusonPaul Atreides unites with Chani and the Fremen while seeking revenge against the conspirators who destroyed his family.lowtosolid7/10, so controversial opinion; I don't love this movie as everyone else did but I did like it way way more than the first by at least 2 or 1 point. It was paced better and so was the action. The cgi was more consistent and so was the cinematography. It looked gorgeous. The acting was pretty good though I wouldn't really write home about anything with timonthy who I think did great at times but also would mug the camera with his gorgeous model face and was posing the whole time. Not like he doesn't do that all the time but it was very noticeable here. The story has improved and I noticed I was paying more attention now than the first although by the third act I was starting not to (that last fight though made me happy.) I don't know maybe seeing it for a second time will help like it did the first to clear things up but for now this belongs near the middle bottom or bottom top (lol)
- DirectorJohan RenckStarsAdam SandlerCarey MulliganPaul DanoHalf a year into his solo mission on the edge of the solar system, an astronaut concerned with the state of his life back on Earth is helped by an ancient creature he discovers in the bowels of his ship.solidtohigh5/10, very very mid. The metaphors were very obvious and the point they were making wasn't anything new, neither was the story or acting. Honestly I don't see why you would want to see this again because most of it is just surface level. If you want a better space film where the guy goes insane then watch Moon(2009). Not that Adam Sandler did a bad job but i was simply just unimpressed. The special effects and the set were well done but I wish they were in service of the story rather than there just to glide around. Yeah yeah I get it, he's very distant with his relationship as shown by him being in space and the spider is his conscience. It's like a student art films first film with a budget. See it if you like scifi and adam sandler (tbh sounds like a good deal which is why I saw it) but don't expect the best of the best or even a deep movie. You probably won't feel like youre getting it here. Very repetitive and very shallow. Chernobyl was way way better, stick to that material mate (maybe that's too mean but what I am saying is he makes better long form content than short)
- DirectorDavid ZellnerNathan ZellnerStarsJesse EisenbergRiley KeoughChristophe Zajac-DenekA year in the life of a unique family. It captures the daily life of the Sasquatch with a level of detail and rigor that is simply unforgettable.
- DirectorLance OppenheimStarsAtasha Peña ClayTyree KellyAri NagelThree men enter the new wild west of baby making - online forums where sperm donors connect with hopeful parents - but find themselves exchanging more than just genetic material.
- DirectorS.J. ClarksonStarsDakota JohnsonSydney SweeneyIsabela MercedCassandra Webb is a New York metropolis paramedic who begins to demonstrate signs of clairvoyance. Forced to challenge revelations about her past, she needs to safeguard three young women from a deadly adversary who wants them destroyed.high10-low1/10, one of the best so bad it's good movies in quite some time. The editing is fucking CRAZY, the 180 rule was thrown out the fucking window in part to show we truly are apart of her web. The acting and action were done by infants in adult bodies and the directing and cinematography was done by someone blind in an infants body. The writing makes me feel like the Coens and the story had to been done by a guy tortured, making up a story out of their ass as they go. Truly the new 2001 of our time. Bow down to Lady Web, she traps all in her snare and fests like a pig consuming a dead body. I shutter to imagine what this director makes next. Maybe they make a movie about us? That's scary. It could be you, it could me! it can eve--
- DirectorSean CharmatzStarsJacob TremblayPaul Walter HauserColin HanksA boy with an active imagination faces his fears on an unforgettable journey through the night with his new friend: a giant, smiling creature named Dark.

Yes I said worse. Even 3 being mid was a much more bearable situation than this. This is just fodder, almost feels like they were told if the didn't make the movie the would lose the IP. No passion, straight up toddler key jingling mode. The story is flat and the gimmick has already been done, IN THIS UNIVERSE. I kinda just saw this movie because of a girl I like (to make conversation really) and we only talked about it for like 2 minutes (she said she liked it so I could be just shitting into the ether). IDK i just hope shrek 5 is good...

- DirectorJim CummingsStarsTaylor MisiakJulia BalesDustin HahnSometimes you don't realize how thirsty you are until it's right in front of you.solidtohigh7/10, I loved Thunder Road and liked the Wolf of Snow Hollow and I haven't seen the Beta Test for some reason but I checked this out because it was a short and it was free. Although I haven't heard good things about the Beta Test, this was really enjoyable for what it was.
It was hilarious. Like a short from Key and Peele or I Think You Should Leave.
