The Case for Christ (2017)
I'm an atheist and I like this
This is a decent movie. It's well directed and well acted. It looks great and it's intense and suspenseful and interesting. I'm an atheist and I find the film surprising
The Obama Deception (2009)
This movie is so funny
I disagree with everything in this movie. It's stupid but it's incredibly entertaining.
Once Upon a Time in... Hollywood (2019)
Tarantino's best film.
This film is really beautiful. The acting is wonderful. Everything about the film works.
Blue Valentine (2010)
Not as great as Pines but still great
This film is not as great as Cianfrances next film Pines but it is still great. The performances are very real. These characters feel really real. The film feels even more like a documentary than Pines. The non linear structure really works. Recommended.
The Place Beyond the Pines (2012)
Modern masterpiece
This film is a modern classic. Literally everything about this film works. The direction is beautiful. Every shot works to tell the story. The film manages to make an epic story feel completely grounded and almost documentary like which is hard to do as the film is very Greek tragedy in many ways. All of the performances feel completely real. The characters feel like real people and the film feels like a documentary while also feeling like a tone poem. The editing in this film works completely well to manage all the tones Derek Cianfrance wants to create.
Chasing Amy (1997)
One of my favorite films
This film is brilliant and relatable. I'm not usually a fan of Kevin Smith. I liked Clerks and I have liked some of his other films but none to this level. This film is smart and wonderful and creative. The dialogue is great. The two characters Holden and Banky are hilarious and they make the film work.
Gisaengchung (2019)
Great movie
This is one of the best films of 2019. It's intense, satirical and emotional without ever feeling disjointed. The film can literally turn on a dime from being hilarious to being suspenseful and it feels seamless. The acting is incredible and the films direction is excellent. The conclusion is very emotional.
The Puffy Chair (2005)
An indie film classic
This film is everything a low budget film should be. It's dry and funny and the performances are great. It makes the most of its budget and it makes its mini DV cinematography part of the aesthetic. The directing in this film is great.
Bindlestiffs (2012)
Much smarter than it looks
This movie is really smart and funny. It's like Superbad but made by the Duplass Brothers. The camera is documentary style. The acting is really naturalistic. The old DV style camerawork works because that's the style that they are making. I can't recommenf the film enough. It reminds me a lot of Dazed and Confused where Dazed and Confused on the surface is a fun movie but actually has a lot to say. This film has a lot to say about ignorance of teenage boys. It's awesome
