The Shinning: I dunno if this was either a comedy or a horror movie. Or both? Because it wasn't good at either
Still was nice I guess, liked the surreal moments.
3/5Scott Pilgrim vs the World: Yeah there were some moments that were cringe to me, but what the hell, this was great. Love when a movie completely embraces its over-the-top nature and plays with that, laughed a lot at this. Very well-directed too.
4.5/5Monty Python's Meaning of Life: The first short film was fantastic. The rest of the movie, sometimes great, sometimes really band and cringe. Too many songs.
3.5/5The Man from Earth: Now this was very interesting, most of it was just dialogue between cool characters and a guy who's just leaving but reveal them he's a prehistoric man that has survived from thousands of years ago and never ages. Is he fucking around? Is it legit? What important characters in history has he met if so? What influence did he have? Although is ends up being a little cheesy and predictable at times, it was very immersive and intriguing to watch.
4/5The Room: Yes, THAT movie. Holy shit, this is so fucking atrocious. But in a way, feels like it's done in purpose, just in a very subtle sense. Really one of those it's so bad it's great. Every rating seems fitting so I guess I'll give it this one for how much fun I had. Tommy Wiseau is my hero.
4/5Dr Strangelove or: How I stopped Worrying and Learned to Love the Bomb: I guess I just don't dig Kubrick's sense of humor. I know it's satire, but didn't make me laugh much besides some moments here and there. It was ok.
3/5Primer: I've seen some mindfucking shit, but this one takes the fucking cake. Not because of how abstract it is, but how concrete yet extremely complex it is to follow. It's basically about two engineers that were working on something as hobby but accidentally discover time travel. In the lapse of 5 days, they build the machines but short-sightness, greed and distrust end up fucking up with them and generating like 12 or more timelines. Had to follow a chart after watching it and I think I get it? Loved how it was very realist about time travel, and mostly shown in a linear way, yet that makes it hard to understand. Highly recommended to fans of hard sci-fi.
4.5/5
