A supernerd’s future self visits him to proclaim a warning of his wasting his life.

Plodding and boring. There are some laughs, but I don’t see why this would be considered a comedy.

A grieving woman goes insane after her child is kidnapped.

A horror. It’s a horror. It’s a slow plodding drama that eventually gets around to a very light mystery and then a horror. A bad one.

The artificial intelligence of an alien craft decides that humanity’s reaction to a previous encounter is a threat to be suppressed.

It’s a CGI-heavy drama that kinda gets going half way through. It’s ultimately boring as hell.

Inspired by the story of the forty-seven rōnin . If you don’t know it, then don’t look that up. I can’t give a description without spoiling it. Consider yourself lucky to have a fresh mind.

This is a patient yet tense movie. I have next to no notes, because there’s really nothing to write or even think about. Recommended, though not “highly recommended”, as there are a lot of movies which execute this general manly-man theme extremely well. Though it’s not among its number, anyone who likes the samurai genre should give this a watch.

An asshole anchorman is sent to a little town to do a fluff story on Groundhog Day, but karma bites him in the ass when the town gets snowed-in.

A fantastic movie not just for the usual things, but for the execution of its idea. Unlike so many movies that have its elements, this one stays grounded and accessible. This movie is well-loved and highly recommended.
