One batch, two batch, penny and dime... I enjoy the hell out of everything Jon Bernthal does. Whether that's in The Punisher , We Own This City , brief appearances in The Amateur or when I had the opportunity to see him perform live in Ojai doing theater i...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/project-hail-mary-2026 · 12 May 2026
Fist my bump! Project Hail Mary is destined to be a modern science fiction classic. It represents the genre at its most hopeful. Humanity faces a clear, oncoming cataclysm and, rather than squabbling and wilting, they rally together and launch an appropria...

Kudos to the folks here who actually drove up the 5 from LA to Sacramento. It's not a bad drive and I've done it a lot, but it can drag. You get to know the rest stops, the gas stations, which exit has a Starbucks and/or an In-N-Out and the signs that your...

Peter F. Hamilton has quickly become one of my favorite authors, having found his work via Exodus (which I realize is not the recommended starting point). There are concepts that cut across Exodus , Pandora's Star and now this entrance into the Void phase ...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/dead-mans-wire-2025 · 10 Mar 2026
Dead Man’s Wire is a well-made movie with a wonderful cast that isn't enjoyable to watch. I don't like my milk with ice and I don't particularly care for Tony Kiritsis either. Was he wronged? It sure seems like it and I'm the last person who's going to s...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/f1-2025 · 4 Mar 2026
I put off watching F1 until now because I don't like the whole vroom vroom race cars go fast thing — but — I wasn't really right to do so. Yes, it's about racing. It's focused in on it, it's the core of the film. But, like most great sport films (yes, ...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/small-engine-repair-2021 · 17 Feb 2026
This was an odd movie — it's uneven, but it manages to work because it's uneven. The first two thirds of it is a somber tale of lifelong friends, familial dysfunction and all involved try and do what's best for Frank's daughter. When all of that falls ap...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/we-bury-the-dead-2026 · 4 Feb 2026
It's incredibly rare for a truly compelling movie like We Bury the Dead to emerge from such a well-trodden genre. It's not the apocalypse, but in Tasmania, it feels like it is. We've seen this though, we've seen visions of the apocalypse, movies and shows ...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/bring-them-down-2025 · 26 Jan 2026
This felt quite similar to The Beasts , but less engaging and what felt like lower stakes. They both center on disputes among neighbors in rural settings, with Bring Them Down having a romantic link shattered by an accident and loss. In both films the anta...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/a-house-of-dynamite-2025 · 6 Jan 2026
A tense, pressure-cooker of a movie that does the whole single narrative told through a round robin of perspectives to make an extremely brief, unbelievably stressful sequence that much more stressful. This feels like a Netflix movie and not in a particula...
