We have John Wick at home.

Late Night With the Devil

2024 | Rating: 6/10

A low budget horror that provides some creepiness and fun spooks.

cover

Monkey Man

2024 | Rating: 7/10

A frenetic and chaotic action movie that drags in spots. One hell of a directorial debut for Dev Patel

cover

Love Lies Bleeding

2024 | Rating: 8/10

A pulpy neo-noir romantic thriller that takes some big swings and, for the most part, lands them well.

cover

Dune: Part Two

2024 | Rating: 9/10

Makes up for any lack of substance in the first part, but trades a bit of style for it

Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth

2024 | Rating: 7/10

Look. I'm having a good time, but there's too much here.

Balatro

2024 | Rating: 10/10

Just a masterfully designed machine that spits out perfectly packaged dopamine.

cover

Drive Away Dolls

2024 | Rating: 5/10

A solid mid-tier comedy that you do not want to watch on an airplane.

Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

2024 | Rating: 8/10

The innovative take that the genre needed.

Turnip Boy Robs a Bank

2024 | Rating: 5/10

Some good stuff in here, but the presentation gets in the way.

cover

Argylle

2024 | Rating: 5/10

Definitely a 'style over substance' movie, but the style is pretty good.

Blackberry

2023 | Rating: 8/10

In a year of pro-business biopics, it's nice to get something that feels more real.

Dumb Money

More like Dumb Movie...

Godzilla Minus One

2023 | Rating: 9/10

A late season movie that puts all the summer blockbusters to shame.

cover

Renfield

2023 | Rating: 3/10

An interesting concept, but not a lot of life in it.

Eat your heart out, duolingo.

Poor Things

2023 | Rating: 10/10

A Frankenstein tale where the monster is incredibly horny.

Hi-Fi Rush

2023 | Rating: 9/10

A rhythm game built for people with no rhythm (i.e. me)

cover

Terra Nil

2023 | Rating: 4/10

A fairly one-note builder type game without enough of a hook to keep me interested.

cover

Lethal Company

2023 | Rating: 10/10

Technically a survival horror type game, but in reality it's the best comedy I've played in a long time.

cover

The Killer

2023 | Rating: 7/10

A very simple movie, masterfully done in a way that only Fincher does.

cover

El Paso, Elsewhere

2023 | Rating: 8/10

A Max Payne like with amazing story, narration, and visuals. Just don't ask about the gameplay.

cover

Saltburn

2023 | Rating: 7/10

Compelling, but kind of disjointed. Did not stick the landing. Overall I liked it, and would recommend, but can absolutely see why people dislike it.
