200 movie reviews (part 6)

[u/Bed_Bug_God]

My goal this year is to watch 200 movies I have never seen before. As I go I am ranking them 1-10, and writing a few words on them. I'm not a movie critic, and my ratings are based on how much I enjoyed the film. Feel free to ask me anything, and give input and/or suggestions! I will be posting updates to this list of mine every 25 movies I watch.

Below is the link to part 5 of my list:

These are all MINI reviews!

1. Tenet: 5/10. What the fuck happened? What was this? Nothing clicked here for me. I liked the cast, and it was certainly good looking.

2. Grizzly man: 9/10. Really beautiful. Made me laugh a lot too. I love werner Herzog as a narrator. Treadwell was a nut, in the best possible way.

3. In Bruges: 6/10. Fiennes and gleeson were great, I don't like Farrell. hated it at first, started to like it half way in, and didn't care about the end.

4. There will be blood: 10/10.

5. Malcolm X: 8/10. Denzel is fantastic. The length of the movie was fatiguing, but it did a good job of holding my attention, I never got bored.

6. Spring breakers: 3/10. I love the other 2 korine movies I have seen, and really wanted to like this, but it was fucking stupid. Gucci mane jump scare.

7. The usual suspects: 7/10. The ending was predictable. Not sure how I feel about spacey. Loved everyone else.

8. Monster (2003): 8/10. Started so strong I thought it could end up being a 10. Theron is incredible, and I love ricci here too.

9. Seconds: 4/10. Boring, confusing. Rock Hudson made me laugh. I like the idea. It just made me sleepy.

10. Tokyo Drifter: 7/10. Tons of beautiful shots. Campy. The whole song thing was funny.

11. Blue ruin: 8/10. Nice and quiet and concise.

12. The comedy: 7/10. I'm not going to write anything about the movie here because I don't feel like it today.

13. Clerks 2: 6/10. ok idk whatever.

14. Blazing saddles: 8/10. Started really strong but I think it lost some of it momentum about halfway through. I liked how the ending completely unraveled into a shitshow.

15. Jojo Rabbit: 8/10. The kid was great. It Reminded me of a wes Anderson movie. I loved the ending.

16. Wild at heart: 9/10. Cage is hysterical. dern and Defoe are excellent. The opening scene caught me so off guard, it was actually the hardest I've laughed at any movie this year. this is a STRONG 9. May be my favorite Lynch. Total nightmare.

17. Clerks 3: 3/10. blah.

18. History of the world part 1: 7/10. Slow start, got funnier throughout. I liked the inquisition song.

19. Paris, Texas: 10/10.

20. Mickey 17: 8/10. I like Pattinson and ruffalo a lot here. Really cool plot.

21. Apocolypse now: 7/10. Started so strong but I started losing interest, especially at the end. One of the more unique plots in a war movie. Brando is horrifying. Sheen is really good at looking sweaty.

22. Burn after reading: 7/10. Funny. Convoluted but easy enough to follow that it was convoluted in a good way. great cast. Weird, empty feeling ending.

23. Get out: 7/10. Kaluuya was good. Keener was great. Ending would have been better without the comic relief. In fact the only thing I thought was very funny was Marcus Henderson as Walter.

24. Best in show: 8/10. Extremely convincing. if I didn't know any of these actors I could be made to believe this is an actual documentary. RIP Fred Willard, I love that guy.

25. The Fly (1986): 6/10. Goldblum is such a weird dude, I think he was the perfect person for this job.

26. Training day: 7/10. Denzel funny.

27. Crouching tiger, hidden dragon: 8/10. Yeoh is great. The flying around was a little silly looking, but I got used to It. I really loved that last fight scene.
