Oooof. I could only watch the first 20 minutes of this movie before I had to turn it off. Despite the talent behind it, and the Orwell story it's based on, this movie just couldn't save itself. The animation is awful, and given that it's not really a story for children, the fact that the animation feels like it's for toddlers makes this movie feel like it has no audience.

This movie is akin to the Exorcist, but for 2026—and all that entails. A young girl living abroad meets an unfortunate fate, and her family attempts to deny it. The movie is sufficiently creepy so it earns it's four stars, despite many flaws with the story, trite plot points, cliché characters, and hammy acting.

This movie is a wild ride, and is truly one of the defining films of this decade. The casting is crazy, the story is almost epic, and the underlying themes about people, their motivations, and the sobering celebration of the mundane under all of the ado is cliché, in a sense, but very well presented. I couldn't stop thinking about this movie for weeks after watching it.

A wild movie about Hollywood elites who throw wild, cult-like sex parties. Not really a creepy movie until you realize it's probably all based on reality. It's Kubrick, so it's a brilliantly made movie, and he died shortly after he shot it. Worth a watch just to read about the odd theories about it online after.

I'm a fan of both Owen Wilson and Jackie Chan, but this movie is poorly paced, makes little sense, and really just throws curveballs for no reason. What should be a fun, silly movie ends up being a little arduous to follow along with.

Existentialism meets mysticism. Waking Life is a disjointed collection of interviews tied loosely together by a strange fantasy narrative about the interviewer learning to lucid dream. It's got Alex Jones in it. Back when it came out, it was a neat use of animation for heady college kid consumption, but it was difficult to watch in 2026 with the drastic movement. YouTube has taken over the space t...

A man stuck in traffic has a mental breakdown. The premise of this film had a lot of idiots cheering for the protagonist when it came out, but the film is sophomoric and the characters are all absurd. With so much contrived nonsense, this movie just doesn't hold up to whatever it may have achieved when it released.

Underrated gem from that New Zealand director who works on the Marvel movies. Follows two extremely strange socially-awkward people who meet and have some strange interactions.

A family on a rustic vacation has a run-in with a "bigfoot". This movie holds up pretty well. The humor is good, the picture looks great, and it's a nice easy watch. Sadly, the moral themes about being kind to other species are likely still relevant today.

Nostalgic, if nothing else. Decently gritty for a movie aimed at kids The picture is sharp in 4K, but the film grain is honestly a little distracting in some scenes. Not a huge upgrade over the old blu-ray.
