M3GAN 3.5/5 - It’s way funnier than it has any right to be. I’m pretty excited for the sequel
The Final Destination (4) 2/5 - One of the main characters is billed as “Racist” and another is first billed as “MILF”. The cgi is also way too heavy and not very good
Clown in a Cornfield 3.5/5 - MUCH better than I expected, I expected dogshit, so pretty good was a surprise. I liked the characters, the clowns, and the plot
Looper 3.5/5 - I view time travel movies on a spectrum from Primer to Looper. Primer explains the details of time travel and has insane internal consistency whereas Looper stares down the camera and says “fuck you, don’t think about it”. Which is all to say that I liked it, it has a Christopher Nolan vibe like “the plot makes sense as long as you don’t think about it too hard”
Godzilla: King of the Monsters 3.5/5 - Godzilla fights a bunch of Kaiju. It’s pretty cool, I wish I had seen it in a theater
Terrifier 2/5 - I don’t know if this is a movie or film student’s final showing off their technical skills. There’s not really a plot, just a bunch of cheaply, but well made, practical effects in loosely connected scenes
Waterworld 1.5/5 - I had heard so much about this but had never seen it, man there is so much going on in this. I love that most of the movie is practical effects, which apparently cost a metric shitload of money. There’s just too many plots, too many scenes, too many characters, and too much that doesn’t make sense
