A Vigilante (2018)
Watch This One
HOW did Olivia Wilde not get a nomination for this?
If you've watched, the same question should come to mind. It's incredible that her performance outshines the actual storyline. To say that she carries the film is pretty rhetorical if you've seen it. The seemingly effortless performance which becomes reality on the screen is in a word, artistic.
Direction was as great as can be and flawless.
The storyline. That's what loses this film points.
Plausibility is an essential point in any story. The film goes off-road into the wilds of shear action movie and although production in every way kept up, the story went away, so to speak.
Watch it with an eye for Ms. Wilde's acting and you'll WOWED.
Shining Vale (2022)
Top Notch
Funny. Terrific cast. Pretty fresh. I dig it. 150 characters to post? Ok. Camera work is spot on. Direction's tempo is bouncing in tune. The writer's dialogue is a little over the top in vulgarity for a family setting.(modern dysfunctional?)
There.
The Cat and the Moon (2019)
Pretty damn good
This Kid,
Alex Wolff- whoa. When you're acting and the audience forgets you're acting this is your goal. You nailed it. It's hard and anxious I think but you're killing it seemingly effortlessly.
After viewing saw he wrote and directed.
Geeez.
Keep going.
Co-stars could do no wrong in this film.
Direction - editing is spot on.
A Star Is Born (2018)
Flawless
This film shoulda swept the Oscars.
Acting Direction Cinematography Editing
Screenplay Score etc
It does what film is supposed to do and does it perfectly. It draws you in and you forget you're screening a film.
Pretty masterful.
The Last Duel (2021)
Money well spent
Whatever the budget it was money well spent. Visually striking and every single scene kept you in a medieval world. Direction and editing seemed flawless. The actors playing differing versions of the same characters is amazing.
A Home Run for sure.
Hereditary (2018)
Oh Man!
Creeepy.
Ya gotta watch it at least twice to catch the maniacal aspects and details that make it even creepier.
The actors hit it outta the park. All of them. Casting is perfect, direction and editing is sublime.
White Lightning (1973)
Watch This
So under under under rated!
Direction casting etc
๐๐๐
The African Queen (1951)
Best American Film
By Far The Greatest American Film!
This shoulda swept the Oscars. Every moment of this film is a perfect combination of writing, acting, direction and cinematography. If entertainment and visual expansion of the written word are the goals of film this one leads all others. Flawless.
Late Night (2019)
Naw
Lacks chemistry in the cast.
Poorly cast.
Not well written.
Acting seemed ok.
Les frรจres Sisters (2018)
Very Very good western
Hate that it didn't make money. It should have been a blockbuster.
Sicario (2015)
Terrific
Hats off to the technical advisors and Director. This is a tight wonderfully edited film. The actors don't seem to be acting at all....sooo good. It's an action film but way more. Denis Villeneuve draws or allows these Actors to do their thing and they do. Pretty Great.
The Wolfman (2010)
Superb Rendition
A dark gothic tale of the classic wolfman. Great special effects and great acting too. Benicio has terrific screen presence and is a fantastic physical actor. Emily's underplayed role makes it words and music on the screen. The film is one of those where you can't imagine other actors in the roles after you've seen it๐น๐น๐น๐น. The timing- the tempo of this film is sublime. The players one and all kill it in this film. Please watch it.
The Ballad of Buster Scruggs (2018)
Western Fairytale
What a yarn. Entertaining. Fascinating.
A wonderful escape into a genius fabrication populated by perfect casting under flawless direction.
The Phenomenon (2020)
Gov.'t shouldn't share all info
Technology and capabilities captured and studied by our government is for OUR benefit and defense and not for general release or distribution.
Fargo (2014)
Season 4
Cast so poorly my brain bleeds.
Acted so pathetically my heart breaks.
Direction is, well, not really apparent.
The story is pretty good but the money spent on production could have been used on ANYTHING else.
Color Out of Space (2019)
Oh My!
Nicholas Cage brings such gravitas and weight and talent to this it's terrific.
Being a movie cat I'm tellin ya: It's all connected great and the tempo is spot on.
Homage to One Eyed Jacks: Bravo
Talking Heads in concerto (1980)
Whoa
Symphony of the COOLEST kind.
Rockin Funky Blast that gets better every song as the band gets more and more into that groove. They wore that poor audience ou
Arkansas (2020)
Gotta Stick With It
Starts so bad but gets sooooo good
You gotta stay in there and let the low budget beginning play out. Then, ZINGA!
Castle Rock (2018)
wanted to really like it...
...but the alzeimer time travel did me in. Like "Lost"; like "Heroes" etc. I can't nor want to try and guess which time zone the character is operating in.
Hopefully the director knows as well as more attentive viewers. ๐ฌ
