finished watching Werewolves 🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑
Pros: Hazmat suits, werewolves and lots of lens flares. Lou Diamond Philips is the president or something. The supermoon thing is a cool silly idea. Has some practical effects. Frank Grillo isn't as douchey as usual. Patriotic preppers aren't cool.
Cons: Do you know those B-movies that have something special? The ones that get to have a little place in your heart? Werewolves isn't one of those.
Thrashing it with a lower star count would make me feel guilty, I think they actually tried, but this is a watch and forget flick.
finished watching Get Away 🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑
This could have worked as a short film, but there just isn't enough going on here to drag a movie for one and a half hours.
Anyway, I can't give Nick Frost less than 5/10. I would if I could.

Curioseando por Mastodon, encontré al autor promocionando este libro.

This will offend the Jordan Peterson's fanboy type, which is a plus, but seems a bit... off. Not sure if this is the right way to tackle the heavy topics this movie ends up talking about. Does it try to be feminist but fails? Does it get it right but, as a movie, it isn't that good? I don't know enough to tell.
Not rating it because I'm not sure about how many stars it should get, not because it's a zero stars flick. Also, I hate rating things.
finished watching Point Nemo 🌕🌑🌑🌑🌑
Este bodrio hace que Lost se remueva en su tumba, y mira que si a mí me pones un monstruo o una isla con escotillas herrumbrosas me conformo, que soy la clase de tolai al que debería gustarle esto, pero ni así.
Aunque me sabe mal dejar una mala opinión, porque al final estas cosas las hace gente con buena intención y que es fan de los mismos clichés que yo, lo máximo que puedo hacer es evitar enumerar y poner a caer de un burro cada aspecto que no funciona.
finished watching Beyond The Infinite Two Minutes
After watching River (2023) I had to watch this one from the same director, they make a Great timey-wimey double feature.
Also, a message for future Christopher Nolan, from present me: Tennet suuuuuucks, this is how it's done.

Note for future-me:
Suggested by @artcollisions as science fiction with a positive depiction of the future.
finished watching The X Files
Ah, simpler times, when the world's demise was orchestrated by competent people through clever conspiracies.
Wait, this is fiction, it was always a bunch of ridiculous, very public bros, concerned only with making the line go up. It was in plain sight all along.
finished watching River
Wholesome Japanese time loop! Thank you, movie, I feel better now.
finished watching Fight or Flight 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑
Sometimes fun over the top violence, with music, lots of colour and an unexpected commentary about Big Tech's power and our supply chain. I liked it better than Bullet Train and a lot more than Snakes on a Plane.
finished watching 满江红 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑
Drags through too many clever twists and turns, but the ending makes up for the overly long runtime.

finished watching The 'Burbs 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕
I don't care what anyone says, this is Peak Tom Hanks and the best Rear Window cover. Thank you, Joe Dante.
finished watching BEEF (Beef)
finished watching See How They Run 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
I'm not a whodunnit kind of guy, but this? I loved it. A mid budget film, great cast where every single face is fun to watch, carefully lit, colourful but thanks to its production design instead of forced digital grading, some self aware jokes that actually land, killer dialog for Adrien Brody, Pemberton nails most of the soundtrack... everything that's missing from most movies today, the precise things I like, this flick has them.
I could say that the first act is better than the rest, or compare it to Knives Out / Glass Onion, or that sometimes the shots are a bit too Wesandersony, but I'm just grateful these kind of movies are still a thing.
