BTW I make these mini reviews using https://quickreviews.app ✌️
Movie #41: The Evil Dead
I decided to stop watching the series in reverse and get to the start.
Movie #42: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
It’s a coincidence, but it’s honestly perfect that this was my 42nd movie of the year.
Movie #44: The Evil Dead
Watched again with friends, and my review from a few weeks ago still stands https://isfeeling.social/@matt/110480500496987707

Movie #45: Evil Dead 2
I expect this to somehow be one of my less popular reviews, even though I liked it 🫣
Movie #58: Sisu
P.S. I’m on Letterboxd and post all my reviews there as well. I’d love to follow more people there, so drop your profile 😁 https://letterboxd.com/mattbirchler/
Movie #61: Jurassic Park III
This was actually the first DVD I ever owned. I liked it at the time, but woof, it’s way worse than I remembered 😬
Movie #62: Jurassic World
Was going to give this one an “okay” score until the final act. An all time shocker 😂
Movie #63: Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1
Saw this in a Dolby Vision theater and it was pretty great. Video and audio were nice, but the bass in the seats elevates certain scenes.
Movie #73: The Meg
It’s possible the Jurassic World trilogy has lowered my standards, but at least this was a bit of fun.
Movie #77: John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum
I’m not sure I’ve seen so much breakaway glass used in a single film before 😨
Movie #79: John Wick: Chapter 4
And that's the John Wick franchise (so far, of course)! Amazingly, all 4 of these fell into my "good" category, which is remarkably consistent.
Also noting that last year on Aug 20 I watched my 51st movie of the year, so I'm *flying* past my 100 movies goal this year 😱
Movie #89: Out of Sight

Movie #95: Shin Godzilla
Highly recommend not watching the dubbed version of this. I toggled over a few times and the English acting is…rough. Subs FTW.

Nate Barham
Shankar
Jason Rak@jasonrak Ah, same. I do agree the last act didn’t stick the landing perfectly, but I think I liked it more overall.
We might have different taste in horror motives, though. Here’s my Smile review from last year 😝

Matt Smith@matt Out of interest how do you feel about these films with Rowlings views on trans rights?
I was a bit too old to read the books, but came to love the films. Had a tradition where every few years we’d watch one each Sunday on the run up to xmas.
Can’t do it anymore because of JK. Though in most cases I’m torn between seperating the art from the artist, not here, because I feel so let down. I do appreciate the cast being pretty public about disagreeing with her though.
@mttsmth Sooooo, I wrote about my feelings in this area here https://birchtree.me/blog/great-art-from-bad-people/
For HP, I obviously don’t approve of JK’s stance on things, and that does taint the experience for me some. That said, I really adore the story and the other people involved in bringing them to life (who as you said, have made it pretty clear mostly dont share her opinions). The story is also about love and acceptance, so the whole situation is all the more frustrating.
