Movie #99: A Nightmare on Elm Street

1 more for my 100 movie goal for 2023 

Movie #100: Shutter Island

Figured I could do a spooky movie and a Scorsese flick at at once 😉

Movie #101: After Hours

Not technically spooky, but this is also a bit of a nightmare for the protagonist.

Movie #102: A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2: Freddy’s Revenge

Woof!

Movie #103: Halloween (2018)
Movie #104: A Haunting in Venice

Movie #105: A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors

Also a young Laurence Fishburne who proves he’s always been cool as hell.

Movie #106: The Dog Who Saved Christmas

Movie #107: Quiz Girl

Wife is sick, so chilling out with movies all day.

Movie #108: The Killer
Movie #109: The Descent
Movie #110: Sunshine

Movie #111: A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)

I knew it wouldn't be great, but I hoped for more than this 😕

Movie #112: The Conversation

Movie #113: Drag Me to Hell

2 movies by lunchtime? Yes, I am enjoying my week off 😜

Movie #114: True Lies

Also acknowledging that parts of this have not aged great.

Movie #115: [REC]

The biggest bummer here is despite the Apple TV version of this supposedly having the original Spanish audio, the player only let me use the English dub.

Movie #116: All the President’s Men
Movie #117: Hone Alone
Movie #118: Cape Fear
Movie #119: Killers of the Flower Moon
Movie #120: Past Lives

Movie #121: The Nun

It feels more like a bad theme park ride than a film with an actual story to tell.

Movie #122: The Nun II

Oof.

Movie #123: Clear and Present Danger

Not that it’s super important, but this movie might have the most obviously ADR’d lines in a movie I’ve ever seen.

Movie #124: Oppenheimer

Uh, use the alt text to read this one 😂

Movie #125: The Fugitive

Movie #126: Fatal Attraction

A boring bummer of a film 😭

Movie #127: When Evil Lurks
Movie #128: Suitable Flesh
Movie #129: Leave the World Behind
Movie #130: May December

Movie #131: The Nightmare Before Christmas

Shameful I waited this long to see it!

Movie #132: A Christmas Story
Movie #133: The Holdovers
Movie #134: Saltburn

Movie #135: The Creator

Watched this one yesterday, but got so caught up in updating the site I forgot to post the actual review 🙃

Movie #136: The Black Phone
Movie #137: Possession

Movie #138: Anatomy of a Fall

I waffled on “good” vs “great” for this one, and I think my answer could vary by the day. If you’re remotely interested in this one, I highly recommend it.

@matt stupid question, but is is possible to change the poor-okay-good-great scale to something else (localize it or use other words to explain the reaction) on quickreviews.app?

@teisam Not a stupid question! Custom names were actually in the original, and there’s code on the back end to handle it, but I don’t have a UI for setting them right now.

I removed it about a year ago when I saw nobody (including myself) using it, and I wanted to simplify the UI a bit. I’ll consider bring it back, though!

@matt if you do nice. Otherwise, still an excellent way to document my goal with at-least-one-movie-week (a step up from my barely-a-movie-per-month).
