Dominic Sessa’s in it, I’m there! The guy can’t miss!
Rose Byrne also NAILS it… for such a simple plot (retrieving an impounded car), this one had me on the edge of my seat the entire run time! A story of the worst of modern society, the best of human nature… an amazingly human and humorous heroic tale!
7.5
It’s that weird coming of age story… where life gets messy and then the main character finds their way out and it lands the plan being inspiring. Through our shared awkwardness and love for “Jagged Little Pill,” we shall prevail! Barbie Ferreira really nails it in this one!

… big yikes… I’d keep that one to myself, Zendaya…
The “secret” she reveals is INSANE… I never would have guessed it going in.
6.9
Olivia Wilde doing Olivia Wilde things… what can you say? After the “Don’t Worry Darling” debacle, of course she’s playing this part! In a nonsensical yet hilariously insane story, this one really takes Cooper Hoffman to the edge of acceptability and back again… be ready for a WEIRD ride.

I typically hate COVID era movies, for obvious reasons… No one wants to go back to that.
This film somehow nails the absurdity and expertly skewers the insanity of those times in a way that won me over. Joaquin Phoenix and Pedro Pascal play local politicians perfectly in this masterpiece of mania. It’s really tough to adequately describe this one without losing the plot. You really have to see it to believe it! I haven’t said “what the actual fuck?!” out loud in a theater at a movie this much in a LONG time… Do with that information what you will.
