interpreting "last night" generously, I just watched Marrowbone (2017), a tonal oddity that's more understandable if you've seen The Orphanage (2007) by the same director, J.A. Bayona. it's a bit fairy tale, a bit psychological drama or even horror story, a bit of a troubled romance in the vein of something like edward scissorhands, very lushly shot. the narrative skips around and introduces what seem to be important developments only to let them drop for much of the movie, with a lot left to be tied up/explained at the end . . . or not, as the case may be, but I don't think it's too much of spoiler to say that the film doesn't leave too many important things dangling. again, if you've seen The Orphanage you have a sense of the kind of movie this is. I liked it but found it, I guess the best word would be uneven; I felt a certain degree of whiplash as the movie careened from the conventions of one genre to another. but for that same reason I feel like it brings an unusual vividness to the (loosely defined) fairy tale genre, which often gets sanitized in certain ways especially when, as here, children/adolescents are the focus.

Pig really great movie starring Nicolas Cage as a dude who lives out in the woods, making a living by foraging for truffles. arguably one of his more weighted roles, I came away from it with a lot of praise for the plot and character development. I can see why he recently stated in an AMA that this was his personal favorite to star in. i’d give this one 5 bags of popcorn and three sodas

Border (2018) [hulu] a customs officer who can smell fear develops an unusual attraction to a strange traveller while aiding a police investigation which will call into question her entire existence  this is an unsettling film. it's not a horror film or even a thriller. it's a drama and it's unlike anything i've ever seen. i watch tons of dramas and this one rlly stuck with me. five bags of popcorn and five sodas. this one is a gem so long as u don't mind looking at ugly ppl |

Also Paco León has really unhinged eyes. I give it Jean-Claude Van Johnson out of JCVD. If you watch it go in blind. |

I saw city slickers for the first time and I wildly underestimated how oddly intense that movie gets. it’s good, the jokes are incredibly written but Jesus Christ some of the scenes

I didn't realize during the first few minutes of I'm Thinking of Ending Things (2020) that it was a Charlie Kaufman film, but this is the kind of movie that prompts you (well, me) every so often to pause and think or look something up so I figured it out pretty quick. and of course it is; ultimately it shares a lot thematically and stylistically with his earlier films, although notably missing is the manic playfulness he cultivates elsewhere. it's a long film, the sets are spare and much of the pacing is slow, and a lot of screen time is dedicated to scenes with dark wintry backdrops. the hints that the onscreen reality is not the full picture come subtly and fleetingly at first, yet they still manage to catch your attention and maybe prompt you to question whether you just saw what you think you just saw. and the characters are certainly arrestingly idiosyncratic, with solid performances, especially by the lead (Jessie Buckley). I'm generally a fan of Kaufman's style, he is certainly distinctive, often unexpected, sometimes shocking in a way that can be piercing. still at the best of times his stories don't resolve to uncomplicated endings, and in this one in particular I feel like a darker mood prevails, at times generating a feeling of palpable dread as in a horror movie or psychological thriller. for me, the ending was not unexpected, but right up to the end the film kept open a number of possibilities that would have made interesting stories in their own right. if I wanted to spend more time with it, I do feel that certain questions, predominantly dark ones, are hinted at but not explicitly resolved (perhaps the book the movie is based on sheds more light on these matters),. I don't know how helpful this is, but ultimately I think what you make of the film depends to an unusual degree on what you bring to it. It's a good movie, but not the kind I want to watch all the time.

Technically the last movie I watched was National Treasure starring Nick Cage. But I see it once every two weeks because that's when I donate platelets. It's the only movie on dvd that I would watch on repeat. It's a great action mystery movie. There's also a sequel and part 3 is coming out soon. But a better answer would be Dark Angel, a movie about an alien terrorizing a town during the christmas holidays. I mentioned it in the chat thread, when we were discussing Dolph Lundgren. It's the kind of mindless action horror movie that's kinda like The Rock (with Sean Connery). With that expectation in mind, it's not bad.

I watched the CGI Appleseed movie on Netflix. It was pretty decent. If I ever watched the anime it was so long ago I have no memory of it. The humans were videogame cutscene quality, but the scene lighting in parts was really gorgeous. The story moved along at a good pace that established the who, what, where and why and never really got bogged down in any of it. All in all I give it a solid definitely worth watching on an airplane, and a decent something to throw on that you don't really have to think about too much and looks cool. |
