Violent Ends lives ip to its name. First bit was a bit of slow character development, letting you know who thr characters are and the world they inhabit, but then about half hour in, the movie starts amping up the action. Yes, it does have a pretty predictable ending, but the set up was worth it. All in all, a very enjoyable movie…

A Haunting Korean Folk Horror
Our intro is eerie and at the same time, it's kinda sweet. The premise of our story seems to revolve around an embedded tale and superstition in the culture, and I'm excited to see how it plays out after the intro.
Oh the film doesn't disappoint, things are already our finally getting weirder than the intro. As magnificent as the things wrong happening, it's the heartbreaking moments that are seeing the tempo carry the weight.
There is getting away from the fact that the superstitious element is mentally as disturbing and detrimental as is the phy…

A darker, more expansive sequel that, despite its visual spectacle and technical finesse, never matches the strength of the first. Performances feel diminished, pacing uneven, and the 3-hour runtime unnecessary. Impressive to look at, but ultimately middling. 5/10.…

Movie Review: Sinners (2025)
A gripping and refreshingly original addition to the vampire genre, Sinners fuses its blood-soaked mythology with a rich musical sensibility that feels deeply tied to its era. There’s a hint of the Cornetto trilogy’s off beat charm, but the film ultimately leans into a more grounded exploration of family, artistry, and social division. The cinematography is superb stylish yet controlled and the direction brings a confident rhythm that complements its thematic depth. Strong performances across the board elevate the drama, making Sinners a standout genre piece.

Movie Review: One Battle After Another
One Battle After Another is a masterful dark comedy-drama that skillfully balances humour with unsettling realism. The performances are compelling, and the cinematography strikingly captures both the intimacy and tension of each scene. Beneath its moments of humour lies a powerful narrative about love, resilience, and the human cost of political conflict. The film’s ability to be both enjoyable and unnerving makes it a provocative, thought-provoking experience, one that lingers long after the credits roll.
Rating: 8/10…

Dark, weird, twisted, humorous, absurd and surprisingly heart warming, this series has it all. Of course I went in assuming I'd get big laughs knowing how much I love Tim Robbins other comedic shows, but this hit different. The parts that made me laugh were always after a really touching moment when your guard was down. At its core it's about a guy who's going through some shit in his own life that leads him to hyper fixate on what at first seems like an innocuous event, but quickly turns into a bizarre and twisted mystery, fleshed out by some absolutely wonderful characters that really draw y…

93/100
Attracting the cops to his speeding, a car delivery specialist is pursued by law enforcement through 3 states while driving a souped-up 1970 Dodge Challenger. Arguably the best chase film ever made and not just because of the chase. This film also touches heavily on the '70s culture, intolerance, a police force's incessant need to stop him when all he's really guilty of is speeding, excellent music, and some truly colorful characters. Add in the flashbacks of our protagonist's life and the vanishing point becomes increasingly clear. Remarkably good film! -- DrNostromo.com…

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/dust-bunny-movie-review-mads-mikkelsen-and-sophie-sloan-elevate-a-familiar-tale/
"Dust Bunny doesn't reinvent the wheel or say something profoundly new about grief and trauma, but it manages to be a satisfying experience. It's a "silly" film in its conception, and its VFX might not dazzle, but it's all executed with evident affection and clarity of purpose.
There's a positive and clear message about sensitive matters, wrapped in a somewhat humorous and innocent layer that, with the due warning about "accessible violence", can be …

[Noticed all the other reviews here are posted by folks who have no interest in technology in the first place...]
TRON (1982) is an incredibly imaginative concept that was decades ahead of its time. At the time of production these graphics were cutting edge - in a certain way some of the practical effects are still better than modern CG (in my opinion anyway) as they lend to a gritty realism that is often lost in 21st century cinema. The performances are well enough to let me suspend disbelief and imagine they are really inside some virtual world. The metaphor of programs being "people"…
