| 3 0% | Fred: The Movie (2010) - Rated 13 Dec 2017
"The girlfriend likes to make me watch awful garbage on a regular basis so she can laugh at me for being pretentious enough to care about how shitty a movie is, and even with all that having prepared me, I still found this to be more crap than usual. It manages to represent everything obnoxious about the mainstream YouTube community and be woefully incompetent at providing laughs at the same time, which is really something, I suppose. Terrible garbage. Do not support this film."

| 58 22% | Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983) - Rated 13 Dec 2017
"Sadly, I found this one to be much lesser than the other two in the original trilogy. Much of it feels redundant and unneeded, and although it has its moments that make it worth existing, something about it still feels really anticlimactic compared to The Empire Strikes Back. In particular, I do not believe Vader's actions are valid during the last 30 minutes at all in any way, shape, or form. Still fun, but a stumble in what is otherwise a decent trilogy."

| 66 55% | Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980) - Rated 13 Dec 2017
"It's slightly better than A New Hope in every possible way, featuring some of the series most iconic moments, but even so, I can't say I really prefer it. Perhaps it just needs to grow on me some more to really hit that level for me, but it's still pretty great and a refinement of all the formulae present in the previous film. This is what a sequel should be."

| 64 33% | Mother! (2017) - Rated 13 Dec 2017
"I was never the type of person with the background to understand what mother! was really about without having to read up on it afterwards, but even so, I thought it was pretty solid. An amazing cast, interesting visual choices, lively direction, and awesome sound design made this a pretty fresh little film. Despite what many may see as a low score, I think it is more than deserving of your time."

| 67 77% | The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017) - Rated 13 Dec 2017
"I was on the edge of my seat for pretty much all of this. Killing of a Sacred Deer has a beautiful blend of razor-sharp tension and puzzling mystery that is sure to delight. I had such a fantastic time with this one!"

| 64 33% | Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) - Rated 13 Dec 2017
"Although the franchise has been built up to godlike proportions, A New Hope is merely nothing more than a fairly fun, if a bit kooky, 70s sci-fi adventure that constantly entertains. There are a few bumps here and there, but I'd argue that the Despecialized Edition of this is decent enough to charm its way into any film lover's heart, no matter how cynical."

| 11 11% | Evil Bong (2006) - Rated 03 Nov 2017
"I mean, this film is terrible. It is supposed to be terrible, having been brought to us by the same minds behind The Gingerdead Man, so there isn't really even a point in writing a review. I got some giggles, and I like seeing Tommy Chong in anything, so there you go. If you have a bunch of friends over or a party or something and you want to get high and kick back, Evil Bong is recommendable. If you don't want to see this, don't watch it. Simple as that."

| 66 55% | Good Time (2017) - Rated 02 Nov 2017
"It won't be putting any rocks in your shoes or anything, but Good Time lives up to its fortunate title, with a wonderful aesthetic tying the work together, tense action, fantastic performances, and a bitchin' soundtrack by OPN himself. Set your expectations accordingly and head on in."

| 73 88% | Funny Games (2008) - Rated 02 Nov 2017
"A harrowing, bleak film that takes typical audience expectations regarding horror films, gives a dash of the disgusting reality of such cruelty, and rubs the viewers nose in it for about two hours. Pretentious, sure, but also important AND necessary."
