Best of the Week: Rogue One

Rogue One is the 8th movie in the Star Wars saga, and the second film since Disney’s purchase (and revitalization) of the beloved series. This film was directed by Gareth Edwards (Godzilla) and stars Felicity Jones as Jyn Erso, Diego Luna as Cassian Andor, Ben Mendelsohn as Orson Krennic, Alan Tudyk as K-2SO, amongst a

Best of the Week: The Conversation

Here, is the only film that I watched this week. Weird, right? Finals have been kicking my ass, so after I got off work, I decided to pick a movie from the shelf to take it home to watch it, and this was it. A completely blind watch, which is my favorite way to experience

Best of the Week: Avatar

Without a doubt, the film that I watched just a few days ago was my favorite of the week: Avatar. I only watched four films this week, so it was between this, Why Him? (read my review here), The Contender (read my review here), and Ghostbusters (I removed my review because I felt bad about shitting on it so heavily). Naturally, this film won

Best of November 2016

November 2016 was a month full of movies for me, and though I saw a few that I more that disliked, there were many that I absolutely loved; in fact, some of my favorite films of the entire year are ones I saw in the last 30 days! Of the 38 films I watched during

Best of the Week: Hacksaw Ridge

I saw quite a few good movies this week: Moonlight, Swiss Army Man (both of which I’ll have reviews up for soon), The Edge of Seventeen (my review for that is here), but the one film that outshines all of those combined was Mel Gibson‘s Hacksaw Ridge. This film had me on the verge of tears for 2 straight hours, and

Best of the Week: Green Room

Out of the 10 movies that I watched this week, Green Room stands out as the most memorable, but that is because of a lot more than just the shock value that this film had- this may be weird to say, but this is a beautiful film, in the strangest of ways. Green Room is directed by Jeremy Saulnier

Best of the Week: Big

Of the 11 films that I saw this week, it was easy to pick which one I liked best. I had a lot of fun with Pleasantville, and I respect the hell out of Apocalypse Now thanks to watching Hearts of Darkness (both of which I watched this month), but the winner is 1988’s comedy, Big starring Tom Hanks. As I wrote

Best of the Week: Doctor Strange

Out of the six movies that I watched this week, I wasn’t sure whether I should pick Sing Street or Doctor Strange as my favorite of the week, but considering that two of those six films I watched were both Doctor Strange, I simply had to pick this, although I love Sing Street like crazy. You can read my full review of Doctor

Best of October 2016

October 2016 was a month full of movies for me; I watched a total of 32 films, and 26 of those were for the first time. Here are my six favorite films of the month, in alphabetical order: Coraline. I’ll say it: I’m not a Tim Burton fan because his grotesque and strange style is just
