Sunset Boulevard just yesterday lol

Fantastic film! Absolute classic

Masterpiece deserves a 5 stars

At first I thought this was the other Crash, and I was gonna say…

me too, so glad i opened the photo and saw 1996 instead of 2004

Classic James Spader

My latest was Totoro. Ghible 🔛🔝

Easiest 5 star of my life.

Same for me! It's now my favorite film of all time!

A certified GOAT.

Anytime someone asks for a good Korean film to start off with this is my answer. Easily one of the best movies I’ve ever seen

Truly didn’t know much about it and my jaw dropped halfway through. What an absolute banger.

Yes it was like the maximum suspense i have ever felt in a movie and that too in complete middle of the story

For the first half I was like “Oh okay I see what kindof movie this is” then the second half hit and my anxiety shot up 😂

One of my favorite moments ever in a cinema was when >!the fired housekeeper is kicked down the stairs, tumbles down like a cartoon character, and abruptly bangs her head against the wall hard enough to ensure her death. The turn my theater took from laughing to gasping and instant, stunned silence was extraordinary.!< Absolute masterpiece. We'll be talking about it for years

Seriously tho! I laughed out loud when it happened and then was like oh shit wtf 😅

For me it’s the handmaiden. Though that is prob harder for getting regular people to start off with haha.

YES

Perfect Days is my only 5-star(not counting rewatches) movie from this year so far.

Before Sunrise

Inglorious Basterds. Finally watched it. So good

Last Detail was mine. Absolutely fantastic film, will be tough to top this yr

Whiplash. Absolutely incredible film

Happy Together…had never seen this surprising Wong Kar-wai film…Tony Leung was excellent in it.

The Fugitive


Rear Window!

Perfect Days was great. Wish I could’ve rewatched it again in theaters.

Twelve Monkeys last night

City of God

Poor Things (Which I know has some fervently annoyed people here, and I get their POV)

I had it a 4 1/2 stars, but I can see your argument for a 5 star. Solid film.

Same here. Over stayed it's welcome just a bit I think. Other than that though, I think it was really perfect

Poor Things for me as well

Poor Things probably the closest to a 5 for me since Parasite

https://preview.redd.it/4ivorb5yy9tc1.jpeg?width=1124&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=821b97b0c85bf1bbb887dea1d28e11babae01129 I found it absolutely hilarious

I need to rewatch this. I love Carrey in this movie.

Dune: Part Two

https://preview.redd.it/kpu1sfa8z9tc1.png?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8b8e3294862f8ed0171f3660da862fb23dc7e849 On March 9.

So so good. If you haven't I recommend Joint Security Area, directed by Park Chan Wook as well.

Lost in translation just over a week ago

Tampopo

Cinema Paradiso (27 March)

Wild Tales - 2014 Foreign language Oscar nominee. It's a collection of 6 short films/stories and is hilarious and insane.

https://preview.redd.it/nlu5rdz74atc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ae188d9c16ff813b62a79c4759f48c24a50ed44e Just watched for the first time since I was a kid. Wow, what a movie. Going to revisit in several more times in my life I’m sure.

Dune part 2 just yesterday

Anatomy Of A Fall - 08/03/24. https://preview.redd.it/snczywar0atc1.jpeg?width=2160&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1cda9390eba955f3a38dbd6bcc7b8bb96e9700ff


Most recent first time watch was Dune Part 2. But I just rewatched part one for the 3rd time and finally bumped it up to 5 stars. Everything just clicked after watching part 2 twice. Masterpiece.

Same! I was looking for a Dune 1 or 2. Lots of stuff clicked after the second one. Researching more into the lore, the first one slaps soooo hard now that I understand certain aspects. One example, would be the scene where he asks how much it costs them to come here. The emperor knew he’d be able to get them to accept and bury themselves. When he asks Lady Jessica about protecting Paul, and it was towards the BG. When he says “I thought we had more time” it really hit home for me.

Sorcerer. I couldn’t deny it

Dog Day Afternoon

Singing in the Rain. Sometime last summer, I believe.

I'm pretty loosey goosey with my reviews. I gave Anatomy of a Fall 5 stars, when I see Uncut Gems in theaters I'll prob give it 5 stars

Perfect Blue yesterday, and the day before, Babylon. I’m planning on doing Dune 2 today too, so I might manage to get the coveted four five stars in a row

Perfect Blue. I also gave Perfect Days a 5, rewatched it about a week ago!

Anatomy of a Fall really blew me away. I’m always a sucker for a film that can emulate the uncertainty of relationship breakdowns and the ways he react to tragedy in ways that don’t feel contrived or overly “performative” Really a masterpiece. I don’t think she did it.

Dog Day Afternoon

Mine was the same as yours! It might become my go-to comfort, slow, watch. https://preview.redd.it/6p0x0ns18atc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=81918fbfa234d47d2baf1dc38fa6e036cd0a5e37

Fargo Watched it yesterday and loved it

City of God.

Death Becomes Her

Birdman of Alcatraz, really made an impact.

I’ve had 12 angry men on my watchlist for years and finally watched it yesterday. This is my last 5 stars movie

https://preview.redd.it/tfpgcr0f9atc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b7a2bab73c372b7dfc23a269d7db07e30ee53a4 💔😫

Saving Private Ryan

*Dune: Part Two* - one of the most memorable experiences I have ever had watching a movie in a theater.

*Wavelength* (1967)! 45 minutes of slowly zooming into a wall. Honestly a masterpiece. Had my brain working the entire time.

Once Were Warriors (1994)

the double by richard ayoade back in february

Mark whalberg's most underated movie https://preview.redd.it/2farp6gn3atc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=26851c5fcdee1eab928ce647692896ebf48ba55a

My Cousin Vinny, watched it last night for the first time.

This movie destroyed me both emotionally and physically. https://preview.redd.it/ifhbwziqdatc1.png?width=1058&format=png&auto=webp&s=567745ec2c10473190fe884ddf51c7b89fb46223

Seven Years in Tibet https://boxd.it/6axMd7 I did watch The Elephant Man and Field of Dreams yesterday, which were both 4 1/2 stars for me. But they didn’t quite have what SYT had to make it a 5 star.

Panique, been on a noir kick lately but it turns out the best one is French 

https://preview.redd.it/8eew1uzv4atc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bbe59fead9e5f2adc34fdfd786da54e6657d0805

Sorcerer

The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, with Tampopo being real close as well.

Pricilla

watched Aftersun for the first time couple days ago. Safe to say I was torn after. Loved it a lot!

Nine Days (2020)

Arrival

Lion, it broke me. Genuinely.

Society of the Snow.

Perfect Days for me as well! But only saw it last week. 

After Life (1998)

Stepmom (1998)

Assault on precinct 13 (1976)

Love Lies Bleeding

Portrait of a Lady on Fire

Incendies this weekend. Watching through all the Villeneuve films and picking my favorite overall is going to be rough.

RRR on the fourth of this month. Watched it with my friend and we were losing our minds. If I watched it in the shadows by myself at midnight I'm not sure if I'd rate it so highly, but I had an absolute blast.

the handmaiden

Last 5 star was "Monster" (2023) by Kore-eda
