I Swear (2025) - Inspiring story and well done. Nothing special as a movie making exercise but I cried. Wishing all the best to all those dealing with Tourette syndrome.

Michael (2026) - Good music.

(Also, the Jackson parents were well acted.)

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

Cocktail (1988) - A charismatic entertaining movie with horrible writing and a kitchen sink approach to drama. Worth a watch but also some uncomfortable laughs at the badness

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

The Wizard of the Kremlin (2025) - Interesting watch but was missing something. I love Dano but didn’t love this performance.

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

Train Dreams (2025) - Quiet and mesmerizing. A fantastic movie about a man. Just a man in his life. Amazing.

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

The Dink (2026) - Surprisingly clever comedy. We really enjoyed this one, much more than we expected.

UHF (1989) - Grossly underrated 80s comedy. The Weird Al music videos don’t hold up but the rest of the movie is classic. Michael Richards puts in one of the best comedic performances ever. And a deep cast of talent really lets this one hold up if you like the genre.

The Odyssey (2026) - Fantastic movie making. Action packed and exciting but also give the sense of time drawing on and on. It hit the major plot points without getting too bogged down in any. Well done!

@chefsevenn Salt and pepper. Maybe a little Tabasco

Role Models (2008) - A very strong comedy of the time. Seann William Scott steals the show and again shows he’s an underrated comedic (only comedic) talent. Lots of great writing and big roles from alumna of The State.

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

Dial M for Murder (1954) - A classic Hitchcock. A complicated mystery with some very experimental shots. Not the acting of some other of Hitch’s classic and some silly moments but still excellent

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

Secret Mall Apartment (2024) - Inspired documentary that most explores art as a lifestyle and art in the service of kindness than the amazing apartment itself. Very good watch.

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

The Outfit (2022) - Really good movie and interesting plot. It lacked some oomph as only the lead actor had any charisma - and that’s said about an actor who’s calling card might be “no charisma but still great”.

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

In Bruges (2008) - One of our all time favorites. Deeply funny, poignant, beautifully shot, wonderfully acted, and understated. One of the almost perfect movies

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

Nope (2022) - Outstanding, unique, and creative. Jordan Peele is an American genius. It has a perfect balance of mystery, action, lightness, and fun. And it always looks great

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

The Singers is a great short film. Not sure I get the ending but very enjoyable. On @netflix

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

State of Grace (1990) - Needed a better director. The plot, writing, acting were all good but it misses the mark. Not badly. But it just doesn’t land

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

Bugonia is outstanding. Excellent acting and a great balance around who you like and don’t. Visually solid but nothing mind blowing - which is fine

[DC Movie Buff @MovieFilmBuff]

The Count of Monte Cristo (2002) - Really entertaining flick. The plot is fantastic so it’s not shocking it’s one of the great novels ever. Acting is a bit melodramatic for my taste but I really enjoyed it.
