Single White Female 1992
What do we wanna call this genre of movies whose titles have legacies as everyday terms that far outlast the movies that coined them? What I mean to say is that most people know what the following phrases mean without having actually seen the movies:
"Yeah dude it was a real Sophie's Choice"
"And so then he married that girl he dated after me so I was absolutely his Good Luck Chuck"
"I know, I need to cross that off… -
Body Heat 1981
When they're talking about femme fatale Matty Walker, the fellas say to each other "She's trouble".
"She's trouble" or "she's bad news" goes down way smoother than "she's toxic" and it would be nice if we all decided to bring that back into the conversation. Fashion is cyclical, why not language too.
Enjoyed this more now than when I first watched it when I was 13. Featuring Ted Dancin' and William Squirt! Four stars!

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 2023
Rocket looks too much like my dog, an absolute emotional disaster for me. I don't remember or care about much of the movie outside the flashbacks of CAGED LITTLE GUYS, really made me re-think using a vibrate collar for training my boy.
A movie that's got furry friends dreaming of seeing the sky one day AND you end it with Badlands? It's the first (and probably last) marvel that's unmitigated kevincore. Three and half stars!

Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. 2023
My face unsuccessfully trying to hold back tears while sitting in the theater next to my bro: 😖 As soon as I realized Rachel McAdams was playing the mom I knew I was toast.
The climatic moment of the movie was something I had never seen before, and just thinking of the dignity this movie gives to the interior life of 12 year old girls makes me melt. Life affirming shit bro!
My only dumb gripe is that every period…

The Heartbreak Kid 1972
This played so well with a sold out crowd in Santa Monica this weekend, genuinely delightful pain. Hooting and hollering at a movie more than 50 years old makes you feel like a snug part of history. Unforch I kept singing "Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Kid" in my dum lil head. Do you think Elaine May knows who Taylor Swift is? Or even heard of her? Makes you think. Is Reputation Taylor's Ishtar? Sound off in the comments!
Shout…

Beau Is Afraid 2023
[leans over to friend and points to self during movie] bro is afraid 😭
Gorgeous goofy misshapen nightmare that was the best with a packed IMAX(??) crowd fucking feasting on every single thing Nathan Lane did, a full on applause break when he showed up on screen and another one at the credits when his name popped up. A perfect audience that was fully engaged and fully sincere, no arclight chuckle-fuckheads to be heard, it was all real.
Everyone tune…

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian 2008
The overwhelming feeling I have after watching every fantasy movie, even the really good ones, is "DAMN the LOTR trilogy is perfect". One and half stars!
