Didn’t you have time to watch any this week, life has been busy, but I’m sure you all have, so let’s discuss!

  • Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. It certainly stayed true to its roots, maybe too much so (it took a long time to get where it was going, just like most late 60s movies). I would’ve said the movie was meandering and meh but the last 10 minutes were my favorite 10 minutes in any movie this year.

    I just finished Destination Wedding and I should’ve hated it. I thought it was going to be a sunny, goofy romcom but instead it was like the poor man’s Woody Allen. Keanu Reeves and Winona Ryder were playing way far against type, seemingly miscast. But I enjoyed seeing them in such different roles playing relentlessly miserable weirdos. Their sex scene was the best at being the worst.
