I, uh, found this one to be generally pretty dull and thoroughly unfunny. I had no idea that was Johnny Galecki until I looked at IMDB and Juliette Lewis is always great but the whole thing was about as successful as Clark's first try at the lights.

12/22/2024 A classic in every sense of the word and required viewing annually during the holidays. Is Kevin a sociopath? How do the sticky bandits survive? Has Catherine O’Hara made a career out of being the dysfunctional mother? I dunno. It’s fun as h...

Dull, violent and devoid of a discernible plot or engaging performances. It’s vaguely entertaining and not totally unwatchable but it’s basically all over the top violence, gore and juvenile humor.

🫶🏻 Crude, ridiculously violent and — somehow — touching (insert Deadpool joke breaking the 4th wall here). The cameos are a delight, the soundtrack is perfect and Hugh Jackman had better be doing this until he's 90. One of the best Marvel movies ...

A 90s coming of age movie filtered through the lens of punk rock and the myriad tenets of that scene as established in a small town. Stevo and Bob embrace being punks and the life that they see as coming with it — living in a squat, fighting, gate keepin...

At turns sad, sweet, hilarious and cute, it holds up as a classic teen comedy 40 years on.
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/sorry-to-bother-you-2018 · 1 Jul 2024
A bizarre, hilarious and brilliantly rendered attack on capitalism, the dehumanization of workers and gentrification. LaKeith Stanfield is brilliant (as always) and Tessa Thompson is a force. Words can't do it justice but repeat viewings can. Equisapiens l...

This could have been better — undeniably — but, as some fun fan service with the original cast complementing the new, I enjoyed it. Mckenna Grace carries the film as Phoebe and Kumail Nanjiani is a welcome addition. Sequels like these are hardly ever a...

It's a John Mulaney special: which means it's relentlessly entertaining, self-deprecating and thoroughly hilarious (plus, Bill Clinton manages to feature prominently).
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/john-mulaney-the-sack-lunch-bunch-2019 · 15 Jun 2024
A spectacularly weird variety show that John Mulaney conducts as a droll, sarcastic pseudo-Mr. Rogers. The kids are quirky and hilarious compliments to Mulaney, while Richard Kind and Jake Gyllenhaal shine as guests in different segments (particularly Gyle...
