I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore, 2017
Tremendous debut feature from Macon Blair. Equal parts hilarious and horrifying. I’m really looking forward to what Macon makes next.
Doctor Strange, 2016
A visual treat for sure, but you can really notice the usual Marvel origin story template at work. Strange’s mean steak and flat humor were a bit odd.
The Founder, 2016
I think the movie was trying to make you root for Ray Kroc. All I came away with was feeling sad for the McDonald brothers.

Split, 2016
This review may contain spoilers. I loved the idea of Shyamalan hiding a movie within another movie. The little capper with Bruce Willis tying this movie into the Unbreakable universe was cool, but that one scene couldn’t hide the fact that Casey’s story just wasn’t satisfyingly wrapped up.

Beware the Slenderman, 2016
Made me understand how easily something like this can happen. Hopefully we’ll eventually get some type of follow up to finally see what happens to the girls.
Resident Evil: The Final Chapter, 2017
Six movie in and these filmmakers have mastered the art of writing themselves out of corners. I didn’t like this as much as Retribution. I was surprised Wesker didn’t have much to do.
Overnight, 2003
The best cautionary tale ever caught on tape. Troy Duffy was king of the world for all of 5 minutes and blew it all when he crossed the Hollywood system.
Breaking a Monster, 2015
You can just watch the joy of playing kick ass metal music being sucked out of these kids by the record industry system. I hope they all stick with it.
The Girl on the Train, 2016
Completely insufferable. I tried to watch this over 2 sittings and totally gave up with over 45 minutes to go.
