Parasite (2019)

Parasite 2019 ★★★★★ Watched 05 Nov, 2019 I had to just sit and contemplate the masterpiece that I had just watched after finishing this movie. To say it was an amazing, groundbreaking, fantastic movie would be throwing adjectives at something indescribable. Holy hell, this is one of the best movies I’ve ever watched. No. Not watched. EXPERIENCED! This movie is an experience. I feel like we’re gonna talk … Continue reading Parasite (2019)

The Aviator (2004)

The Aviator 2004 ★★★½ Watched 02 Nov, 2019 This movie was a phenomenal, slow-burn look at mental illness. Scorcese is considered a legend for a reason and this movie is a great example of that. The way he goes about narrating this exhilarating yet intricate story is so fun to watch. Even the movie does slow down at points and there’s a lot of dense dialogue and conversations, … Continue reading The Aviator (2004)

Joker (2019)

Joker 2019 ★★★★½  Watched 09 Oct, 2019 The tension in this movie was phenomenal. It keeps you on the edge of your seat in every single scene. Even the slower-paced scenes have a sense of dread and tension underneath them. The way the character is handled by Todd Philipps and Joaquin Phoenix is simply phenomenal. It’s tough characterizing the Joker without Batman and yet Phoenix gives a … Continue reading Joker (2019)

Toy Story 4 (2019)

Toy Story 4 2019 ★★★★★ Watched 01 Oct, 2019 Firstly, I would like to thank everyone for lowering my expectations for this movie. I went in thinking it’s gonna be bad, and my gosh this was a pleasant surprise. It’s a wholesome movie, and it lives up to the impossibly high standards left by the first three. The animation is jarringly photorealistic and Pixar doesn’t need to be … Continue reading Toy Story 4 (2019)

Isle of Dogs (2018)

Isle of Dogs 2018 ★★★★ Watched 29 Sep, 2019 This is one of the most visually appealing films I have ever watched. Wes Anderson seems to have mastered his visual style with this movie. But it’s not the meticulous stop motion that makes this film so riveting and special. It’s an amazing storyline and acting that propel this beautiful film into your mind. There is no main character … Continue reading Isle of Dogs (2018)

Bruce Almighty (2003) – Reviewed 21st September 2019

Honestly, what did I expect from a Jim Carrey movie where he becomes God? This is one of the most over-the-top and cheesy comedies I’ve seen in a long time. The dialogue is bonkers, the acting is very average and there’s nothing too special about the cinematography or anything here. Maybe I’ve been watching too many great movies recently. It’s still a really entertaining and … Continue reading Bruce Almighty (2003) – Reviewed 21st September 2019

Fight Club (1999) – Reviewed 20th September 2019

I know I’m breaking the first rule of Fight Club. But this movie is exceptional. I knew about the big twist beforehand, which made the experience different from what was intended by Fincher but still very fun. Because he lays down the clues for what is one of the greatest plot twists in cinema history everywhere in the movie. The concept and plot of this … Continue reading Fight Club (1999) – Reviewed 20th September 2019

John Wick (2014) – Reviewed 17th Septemeber 2019

If you’re not into unrelenting, well-choreographed and perfectly executed action scenes then this movie is not for you. I honestly can’t believe I hadn’t watched this beauty of a film before. It’s so well made and well-acted that sometimes you forget that you’re not a part of this crazy world. The world and characters and so unique and fleshed out. But the really impressive feat … Continue reading John Wick (2014) – Reviewed 17th Septemeber 2019

Fargo (1996) – Reviewed on 15th September 2019

My gosh, this movie was such a great experience. It’s so wholesome and fun. It has such a different vibe to it. The dialogue and accents are so funny and eccentric. It’s such a hilarious film and yet it’s so deep in its meaning. The concept of morality is explored in this film and whoever does bad things gets an appropriate punishment in the end. … Continue reading Fargo (1996) – Reviewed on 15th September 2019

GoodFellas (1990) – Reviewed 11th September 2019

Scorcese is one of the best directors of all time. This movie is a wonderful example why. This is The Godfather and The Wolf of Wall Street combined into one awesome package. It has this incredible fast-paced energy throughout. The performance by everyone is incredible. This movie was so refreshing and enjoyable. It was pure good time and a pure good movie. It’s very hard … Continue reading GoodFellas (1990) – Reviewed 11th September 2019

Synechdoche, New York (2008) – Reviewed on 9th September 2019

Unpopular opinion time. This movie was a weird experience. It wasn’t just a movie, it was an experience. A deeply disturbing and troubling experience. After the movie was over, I felt sad, empty and lonely and most of all just lost. I felt like I had no purpose. When a movie makes you feel that way, it’s powerful. But, I don’t watch movies to feel … Continue reading Synechdoche, New York (2008) – Reviewed on 9th September 2019

This movie takes some time to process. It’s reverse storytelling pattern and complex plot structure make it a very dense and interesting watch. It’s very compelling in it’s narrative and leaves you interested throughout. It’s shorter run time helps it cut down on the nonsense and leaves you asking many questions in the end. Nolan is a masterful director and he helms his craft in … Continue reading Memento (2000) – Reviewed 8th September 2019

Inglorious Basterds (2009) – Reviewed September 8th 2019

Suspense. Suspense is the word I would use to describe the entirety of this film. This is peak Tarantino. He took everything good about the movies he had made up to that point and amped it up a notch. Every scene kept me at the edge of my seat. Brad Pitt and Christopher Waltz are simply phenomenal in this movie. I was shaken and riveted … Continue reading Inglorious Basterds (2009) – Reviewed September 8th 2019
