https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/the-raid-2011 · 13 Jun 2025
I'd never heard of The Raid until I watched Havoc . Gareth Edwards directed both, the later was superb and the former — this particular movie — is essential. Whenever anyone holds up a list of action movies and proclaims it a list of the greatest actio...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/the-amateur-2025 · 10 Jun 2025
I feel safe saying that this is my favorite action movie of the year so far. That may change when the new John Wick spinoff is released, but for now this is firmly in first place. The Amateur manages to get you immediately emotionally invested in the sweet...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/venom-the-last-dance-2024 · 9 Jun 2025
A little bit of family-friendly Deadpool , some Power Rangers vibes, a dance scene with Mrs. Chen who happens to be in Vegas at exactly the wrong time and a Maroon 5 tune. Venom: The Ted Lasso Crossover Episode . There's a Venom horse, a Venom fish, a Veno...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/venom-let-there-be-carnage-2021 · 6 Jun 2025
Oh what the hell why not. There's camp, a lot of tentacles, sexual tension (everywhere), some buddy comedy elements, post-credit novella scenes. This movie is weird, vaguely cohesive and also — kinda — has everything. It's got pet chickens and hell yes...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/the-accountant2-2025 · 5 Jun 2025
Alright, let's get this out of the way: the premise of this movie and the original are ridiculous on their face. Next, I will watch anything with Jon Bernthal in it. No questions asked. He's in the cast and I'm there. The man commits to every role and elev...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/venom-2018 · 4 Jun 2025
This manages to be more enjoyable than a lot of recent Marvel movies simply by not taking itself so seriously. Venom is juvenile — sometimes to a fault, but it's not unbearably serious to the point that it stops being fun . I've got nostalgia for the old...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/havoc-2025 · 3 Jun 2025
Another Netflix Christmas movie. A $90,000,000 budget? That is wild. But it's good, it's the best Netflix movie I can remember watching (it's either that good or their movies are that forgettable — your pick). Gritty, but glowing, the aesthetic of this i...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/novocaine-2025 · 31 May 2025
For a movie that isn't stellar and that doesn't step outside the bounds of genre expectations, Novocaine is a ton of fun. That's in no small part due to the fact that Jack Quid is every bit as charismatic as his parents (as is Ray Nicholson — what a wond...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/red-planet-2000 · 26 May 2025
Fuck this planet. Right? There's a vocal set that insists on going to a dust ball that's not designed to kill us, but everything about it makes it perfect to kill us. Why? Hubris, probably hubris. The misguided notion that we'll actually be able to terrafo...
https://www.coryd.dev/watching/movies/captain-america-brave-new-world-2025 · 1 May 2025
A thin-skinned old man gets elected president, spars with allies and the press, turns bright red and tears down the seat of American government. But he doesn't toggle tariffs on and off like they're a light switch. It's an entertaining enough if altogether...
