A Complete Unknown - 8/10

I had my doubts but Chalamet’s got the goods. Elite performances all around.

Got the goods, playing Bob Dylan, really? You can't swing a dead cat and not hit a hobo off the street that looks and sings like him. I guess Bobby went through some shit.

Townes Van Zandt is probably better than Bob Dylan in every way imaginable. Yet nobody knows who he was at all.

Babygirl - 7.5/10

Opens with Antonio Banderas fucking Nicole Kidman. She fakes an orgasm and then scurries off to another room and jacks off to porn for a few minutes. I liked this one! Good little inversion of the 80s-90s erotic thriller. Doesn’t quite stick the landing but I had fun.

Y2K. Garbage film. Watched it thinking it would be dumb fun. Nope, just dumb. It's like it wanted to be a spoof of 90's teen sex comedies, but didn't understand what a spoof is.

The Brutalist - 9/10

Immense in every way, like the classic American epics of the 50s-70s. The first two thirds is perfection. Not sure how I feel about the last hour but it was very thought-provoking. Adrien Brody and Guy Pearce were incredible. Beautiful score, filmed in gorgeous VistaVision. Should be the front-runner for Best Picture. Also really liked the 15 minute intermission, thought it was great for the pacing.

Forgot to post this one last week…

Den of Thieves 2: Pantera - 7.5/10

I would be cool with seeing a combo of Big Nick being Big Nick + complex heists as a formula in this franchise for the next decade. Felt like a love letter to Ronin as much as the first was a love letter to Heat. Dudes rock.

Presence - 8/10

Not really a horror movie but one of the most interesting interpretations of a ghost story you’ll see. Really unnerving and affecting.
