The Rip is a good heist movie. I love a good heist movie. It's not exceptional, but it's entertaining as hell and, frankly, rips. You could not ask for a better cast for a bottled up, tense whodunnit of an action movie. You couldn't. It's absurd and that's...
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...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/the-running-man-2025 · 18 Dec 2025
The most depressing part of this movie is that it's set in 2026. Taps the sign. Science fiction is often a warning, but The Running Man feels so close to the present moment that it's a warning that we've chosen not to heed. Massive wealth inequality? We've...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/tron-ares-2025 · 4 Dec 2025
TRON: Ares is a move that's easy to feel conflicted about first and foremost because of Jared Leto's inclusion in a leading role. The guy is at best extremely odd and clearly, well, not at his best. But I believe this movie works well enough. It's a well-a...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/predator-badlands-2025 · 1 Dec 2025
I so very much wanted to love Predator: Badlands , but it ended up being resoundingly mediocre. Picture a Predator movie made by Disney and that's what you have here. There are some Mandalorian vibes with the child Kalisk functioning as Grogu and Thia as h...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/the-hunt-2020 · 20 Nov 2025
I vaguely remember some controversy around this movie when it was first on its way to a release. Having watched it, it feels to farcical and stupid to have been controversial. It picks the worst caricatures of a breathtakingly stupid, distinctly American p...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/one-battle-after-another-2025 · 18 Nov 2025
I thought you took AP Common Sense? A perfect movie for which I have heaps of praise and a dearth of criticism. This is easily the movie of the year. It's heartfelt and fucking hilarious. It couldn't be more timely. There's an ambitious resistance group, a...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/afterburn-2025 · 13 Nov 2025
Afterburn is as mediocre a movie as you might expect. It's headlined by Dave Bautista who's a perfectly capable professional wrestler turned actor (though not as charismatic as Dwayne Johnson or as funny as John Cena). There's actions and stunts, the dialo...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/hierarchy-2025 · 28 Oct 2025
Hierarchy aspires to be Heat on a shoestring budget but, instead, ends up bogged down by uneven performances. It features an understated score, disembodied narration voiced by one of the leads and plenty of beautiful arial shots of the unnamed Texas city i...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/she-rides-shotgun-2025 · 14 Oct 2025
Remember, kids : how do you know a law enforcement officer is corrupt? That they're wearing a badge is a good indicator and, if they're not wearing a badge, that's an even better indicator. She Rides Shotgun is a surprisingly touching movie that focuses in...
