Does Jeff Bezos Have the Monkey Mind? K and JS Reacting to Film Festival Trailers

https://youtu.be/xqzXhjdEtdI I mean Jazzy Jeff Bezos in the thumbnail how can that not grab your attention. As much as on the channel I've talked about bigger movies like Puss and Boots and Barbarian, I wanted to go back to my roots and look at some unknown flicks and discuss trailers for an upcoming film festival. …

Barbarian – I’m Lost For Words

Oh my God this has so many spoilers. This is maybe the worst review I've ever done. Umm...let's just say I got distracted by um... things. This is more of an in-between bonus content but I miss being able to just share my quick two cents. I will do better in the future, but for …

BEETLEJUICE, BEETLEJUICE, BEETLEJUICE: Evolving From Fiend to Friend

Day light coming, me want to go home. Any one familiar with me should not be surprised that I would bring my well...B game when it came to serving a spooky Halloween treat. Sometimes reviewing a classic character is all ya need. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKxti964hcU&ab_channel=KattheMovies

The Bubble Fraud: This Bubble Review is Double the Trouble

Netflix released The Bubble a spoof movie that attempts to prove that the filming during the pandemic is a great source wacky antics and total shenanigans.

This Podcast Ends… The Woman in the Window Who Called The Guilty Monkey At 3AM From The Oven (1)

I was supposed to maybe have the full podcast up by now but a error in uploading means that a full podcast was deemed impossible. Sorry. Has my behavior on Twitter been rude and shroud. Do you think I can collect enough bored monkeys to make a boat club. Ever wanted to watch me ramble …

Titane Review in 500 Words or Less

Concessions Confession: This movie is a perverse and deranged nightmare, it is mesmerizingly horrific. I get the hype as it certainly is something, but I feel like you got to be a real sicko to recommend this, and I'm more of weirdo and it's a little too much body horror and nudity and shock for …

Tick, Tick….Boom! Bursting With Energy, Waiting for the Impact

Concessions Confession: After finishing Tick, Tick... Boom, my reaction was somewhat mixed. After letting it ruminate for a bit, I can confirm that I find this to be a mixed bag indeed. Logline: Aspiring playwright Jonathan Larson attempts to make his first big production in Sci-Fi rock musical Superbia. While Larson tackles a stiff deadline …

Tom Hanks is a Method DnD Player in ‘Mazes and Monsters’

Concessions Confession: Tom Hanks has his first leading role in what is shameless Christian mom propaganda movie. It turns out with the message similar to "Pokemon demonic and bad" just doesn't inspire a good script. Logline: A group of college students agree to start playing the fantasy role-playing game "Mazes and Monsters". However as one …

You Could Say, ‘Malignant’ is Growing On Me

Concession Confession: While I might not be the biggest James Wan fan on the internet, Malignant is simply awesome. A blend of horror that feels bizarre but satisfying from start to finish. Logline: Madison Lake suffers visions of a murderous creature going on a rampage. After further exploration into her forgotten past it appears this …

Redline is an Adrenal Junkie Stylish Racing Extravaganza

Concession Confession: High octane speed and a beautiful hand drawn art style gives there a lot to marvel at. Some of the plot surrounding the race is a little meandering but not enough to prevent this from being a complete joy ride. Logline: "Sweet" JP qualifies as a replacement to enter the Redline, the galaxy's …

Space Jam 2 Review: Welcome to Brand Synergy

Concessions Confession: Everything leading up to this made me believe this was going to be a disastrous spectacle that I just couldn't miss out on. However, it ends up being a mixed-bag of horrific and terrific as for every improvement to the original it missteps with noticeable flaw. Logline: LeBron upsets Warner Bros. Al. G. …

The Indie Spirit of A Ghost and The Boy with A Box on His Head

 Concessions Confession: Donnie Darko and Under the Silver Lake are reasonable comparisons to this shoestring budget indie that has so much “indie quirk” it almost becomes satirical. Some how creates the ultimate paradox of being filled to the brim with Indie filmmaking techniques and enthusiasm, but an experience that ends up coming across as hallow …

Little to View in ‘The Woman in the Window’

Concession Confession: I can feel that the people who made this movie like the same movies I do. So they decided to make their own and that they did without the talent, precision, complexity, and aptitude to make it all come together. Logline: Anna Fox (Amy Adams) suffers from agoraphobia and is a depressive shut-in. …

Crying Fist: A Great Love Letter to Sports

Thanks to my friend, Irina from I Drink and Watch Anime, who recommended I check out this 2005 Korean boxing movie directed by Ryoo Seung-wan starting Choi Min-sik. When two men in desperate need of a win clash, the result is a film that understands what's truly great about the sport. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oV__6T900aE

Does Netflix’s Latest Animated Original have Me ‘Over the Moon’?

Concessions Confession: Over the Moon shoots for the moon but ends up a pale Disney imitation. Yet, it’s sincerity and wholesomeness prove that it earns a place among the stars. Logline: Fei Fei builds a rocket to the moon to prove the existence of the Moon Goddess Chang’e. Fei Fei must present a gift if …

The Way Back (K DAY 2020)

Basketball my one true weakness. Ben Affleck gives a compelling performance as a high school basketball coach trying to lead a failing program back to prominence. There’s not an aspect of this film that is particularly noteworthy, it’s as by the books as a movie nowadays can get. Despite being dry, it’s not bad either. …

Vampire’s Kiss (K Day 2020)

This is probably Nicolas Cage at his craziest and that’s saying something. Cage is a delusional misogynist who thinks he is becoming a vampire. It’s interesting to watch because I almost get the sense that the book it’s based off of isn’t as shallow of material as the film is. There’s multiple occasion such as …

Uncut Gems (K DAY 2020)

There’s something just truly original about a Safdie Brothers film experience. I don’t know if it is just the grimy subject material they cover or how they seem to work well with confined claustrophobic cinematography, but each film is just bottled up chaos. I don’t necessarily agree with Adam Sandler’s Oscar snub, don’t get me …

Bloeistraat 11 Short Film (K DAY 2020)

Bloeistraat or Flowering Street is a 9 minute short film directed by Nienke Deutz. It is one of the coolest things I’ve ever scene while also giving me the creeps (unintentionally). I have never quite seen anything like it; it uses painted plastic sheets almost like Cel animation, while the background is cardboard and miniatures. …

Eyes Without A Face (K DAY 2020)

Deeply unsettling and hurls you in a constant state of heebie-jeebies. Which is weird because the main source of discomfort is sort of a tragic Quasimodo type character, the most sympathetic character. It’s the antithesis of modern horror as it doesn’t cut away and figures don’t abruptly appear. We see the stalking and sneaking around …

Little Shop of Horrors (K DAY 2020)

A fun watch and just has enough of that 80's cheese to be timeless. I’m sure that people will agree that seeing Rick Moranis doing Rick Moranis things combined with Steve Martin and Bill Murray in minor hi-jinks is always enjoyable. That said while this is the most iconic version because of the impressive effects …

Snoop a Peek at Agatha Christine: Next Door Spy

Concessions Confession: A wholesome tale that never feels anything exceptional but is a simple delight none the less. Log Line: Solving a simple convenient store robbery is an everyday case for child detective Agatha Christine. Making friends in a new neighborhood however, is not so simple. Did you know that Agatha Christie, famed fiction writer …

The Invisible Guest (REVIEW)

Concessions Confession: The Invisible Guest is everything you’d want in a mystery thriller, full of twists, deception, and tantalizing crime.  Following the contemporary thriller format of misdirection and making the ‘mystery’ itself what needs to be solve; The Invisible Guest might take its trickery too far but never stops being engaging. Log Line: Spanish businessman …

Scoob! Just Doesn’t Scooby-Doo it for Me!

In a nutshell: Scoob! ultimately lacks identity and constantly grapples with what to be. A barrage of homage to a beloved franchise while simultaneously showing no interest in the characters, mysteries, or heart that made it a classic to begin with. Shaggy and Scooby-Doo go on a modern adventure which apparently means joining up with …

The Best Movie That Never Was! – Pandamonium (part 1)

Welcome to a Different Review We like to have fun here, whether that is reviewing a fantastically fun flick or an amazing anime series. This time we will be doing neither of those things…or both depending on how you look at it. Because today’s post is going to be a mock attempt at script coverage. …

Graphic Design is My Passion, But Art is My Enemy! 6 Fanarts – Part 1

I Would Like To Preface This What makes an artist? A miserable little pile of secrets? Everyone knows it's the tools they use. Michelangelo refused to paint the Sistine Chapel with Crayola Crayons...that's a fact. Wikipedia that. So every great artist uses a fancy tablet and I am no different. So I am using a …

A Tale of The Two Popes

A film that demonstrates a rich dichotomy between ideological differences can be considered as old as film itself. Yet, international director Fernando Meirelles (City of God, Blindness) delivers with his recent film The Two Popes in constructing the perfect paradox of a film that feels entirely timeless as well as crucially contemporary.
