Part of me wants to trash this film to kingdom come. Unfortunately, I don’t have a lot of time left in the day, so all I can manage is a spit in its general direction. Don’t let the introduction fool you: I don’t hate this as much as I simply wish it employed a different […]

Day Twenty-Two: Godzilla vs. Mothra (MotM 2021)
Not to be confused with Mothra vs. Godzilla from 1964. This is the version from the Heisei era, because I am a ’90s kid.

Day Fifteen: Rocky V (MotM 2021)
This is my cover for this film. I’m not even gonna bother with the promotional art. I’m tired.
Day Thirty: Holes (MotM 2020)
It’s late and the head is throbbing. Gonna keep this fairly direct. Fun fact: this was, at one point, my favorite film of all time. No hyperbole in…
Day Eighteen: Unknown (MotM 2020)
Coincidentally, there’s a whole lot of unknown going on in the world at present. I wanted to take this short space to wish people a safe and comfortable…
Day Fourteen: Machete (MotM 2020)
I’m not even going to provide a witty introduction this time. My old review’s introduction is all the set-up one needs. I shit you not, this is how…
Day Twenty: Avatar (MotM 2020)
This post will be relatively short, which is ironic considering the gargantuan length of this film. If you were over the age of five and had a capable…
Day Six: Camille (MotM 2020)
This was another one of those titles that I watched and attached a really high rating to. It’s especially curious because I remember next to nothing about this.…
Day Five: Anomalisa (MotM 2020)
To this film’s detriment, there was a heavy load of expectations from me going into it. Three film critics whose opinions I trust—for those aware, the three members of…
Day Nineteen: The Wave (MotM 2020)
This film in particular was a suggestion from a friend, and as such, I must thank them for their patronage. I very likely would not have seen this…
Day Nine: Crimson Peak (MotM 2020)
One day, I will return to writing longer reviews at decent times of the day. Today will not be that day. From the moment I laid eyes on Crimson…
Day Ten: Fired Up! (MotM 2020)
It’s been talked about a few times leading up to this post: that sort of essence of quality that I saw in my younger days. There was a…
Day Thirteen: Kamikaze Girls (MotM 2020)
By the time this releases, it will be very late at night. As such, my write-up will unfortunately be very limited. This is such a dumb, but fun…
Day Eight: Hall Pass (MotM 2020)
Somehow, I have even less time than I did yesterday. As such, I’ll try and keep this as smooshed as possible. This is almost like a guilty pleasure…
Day Twenty-Five: Promare (MotM 2020)
Look, everyone! I watched anime again! What a blast from the past, huh? Before I begin, I want to clarify a couple things: This may be a comparison-heavy…
Day Twenty-Three: Charade (MotM 2020)
Animal Crossing has sufficiently taken over my soul. Gonna try and get this out before the day ends. I haven’t seen many of Hepburn’s films, despite her notable…
Day Twenty-Six: Ratatouille (MotM 2020)
This post will be fairly short, as explaining the formula employed by Pixar in basically all of their films is immensely tiring and overstated by this point. If…
Day Seven: In Bruges (MotM 2020)
Another weekend, another long day at work, which results in a short film review. Only tonight’s special: Daylight Savings! I actually have one less hour tonight to do anything!…
Day Twenty-Seven: Thoroughbreds (MotM 2020)
Another suggestion made by a friend of mine, Thoroughbreds is actually a film I’ve had my eye on for some time. The stellar ratings, adoration for the two young…
Day Two: The Green Hornet (MotM 2020)
There are a large number of ways I could start this review. “Hey, I used to really like Seth Rogen for some reason. He played a large part…
Day Twenty-Four: The Sandlot (MotM 2020)
Ignorance is bliss. I have been cursed with the knowledge that a large majority of films are problematic in some capacity and now I cannot stop seeing it.…
Day Twenty-Nine: Total Recall (MotM 2020)
I’m very close to the end. The vision is clear. Or perhaps… I’m not close at all, and I never really started. What can I truly believe? Schwarzenegger.…
Day Eleven: Hood of Horror (MotM 2020)
…………………………………………………………….. I had never heard of this prior to yesterday, gracefully recommended by my brother, whom also had never heard of this prior to yesterday. My brother and…
Day Seventeen: The Nice Guys (MotM 2020)
The Nice Guys features two actors that I’m very intimately familiar with. Russell Crowe was the lead in Cinderella Man, which I used to consider my favorite film of…
Day Thirty-One: Anna Karenina (MotM 2020)
A final suggestion from a friend to cap off this year’s March of the Movies. It’s been a good one, and despite the circumstances surrounding the world, I’m…
Day Four: Dinner for Schmucks (MotM 2020)
This was the film that made me want to add the stipulation to re-watch films from my Rotten Tomatoes days. Why? Because I gave this an 8/10 nine…
Day One: Punch-Drunk Love (MotM 2020)
It’s the weekend and it’s late. I’ll try and make this as succinct as possible while also maintaining the critical sublimity I am beloved for! Paul Thomas Anderson…
Day Three: The Mosquito Coast (MotM 2020)
Don’t have a lot of time today, unfortunately, so I won’t get into the kind of detail I’d like to. This is definitely worth seeing, though I believe…
