Quarantine Movies

Speed Racer

It’s the perfect movie.

Mobile Suit Gundam I

Really expected to find this dull and I still don't find space battles interesting but. Gundam. Its about some SHIT. And Amuro is so compelling as this guy forced into a horrible situation and doing his best. I think what space battles need are a really emotional current to it and this movie nails it 100 percent.

I didn't expect to find Char so charming too but the slow reveal of what an absolute piece of shit he is? Incredible. He's just in it for his revenge and everything else is an obstacle to that revenge. Absolute dickweed.

Mobile Suit Gundam II: Soldiers of Sorrow

Liked it a little less than 1 but a lot of side characters get great and necessary development. The drama of space continues to unravel. The war pushes towards its inevitable despair.

Mobile Suit Gundam III: Encounters in Space

Once Upon A Time In Hollywood

As someone who generally hates Tarantino, he did a good job avoiding his own bullshit enough for my mom to enjoy a movie he made. He still sucks tho.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Very charming kids adventure movie. Turtles need to take things... a little more seriously? No reaction to their dad’s kidnapping and they feel interchangeable at times. But still fun.

Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt: December Sky

Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt: Bandit Flower

The Matrix

Gender is a myth.

Jupiter Ascending

Venom

Scoob

Really wanted to hate it but I shamelessly adored it. Shameless cash grab trying to be hashtag Relatable? Yes. Lovingly crafted ode to the original show and its history? Absolutely.

Snowpiercer

Homeward Bound

Paul Blart Mall Cop 2

utter unfunny trash cobbled together in this monstrous form.
its a frankenstein monster of plotlines and characters that don't make sense. i know these movies only exist for kevin james to hang out with his buds but oh my god this is foul. Till Death Us Blart cannot prepare you for how the way mouths move, the way the editing cobbles together, the way the cracks and folds of the blart universe do everything it can to defend blart from the disgust he deserves. blart thinks he deserves a keynote speech? he gets a keynote speech. blart thinks his daughter shouldn't go to ucla? she decides not to go to ucla until he allows it. blart wants a last minute romance in the final minutes? he gets that romance. the world operates on blart's rules, not matter how hard they try to resist. blart chooses, and the world obeys.

One star for Maya Blart, doing her best.

The Princess Diaries

Klaus

Trollhunter

2001: A Space Odyssey

Paper Moon
