Re-watching World War Z. I'm actually surprised at how great this is.
Bro when he immediately hacked that shit I was shocked! Savd her life tho...quick thinking
This is way more intense and relentless than I remember
Like for real tho some movies give you an actual break, this movie has your heart running the a track meet and after you barely got any breath says you got 30 seconds before we run again
Ruth Negga !!
Man's at the end of this is me this whole movie ....fuckin hell
I.. would.. not.. have made it...
This movie was hell on my nerves but it was so good it felt like a first watch. Not in that best movie ever way, just in a much better than I previously thought way
With me sometimes I think what happens is that when I get tired of a certain general genre, good movies can slip by me because I'm so already heavily focused on my exhaustion with the entire concept as was the case with zombies by the time world war Z came out....
But the combination of this being sort of a follow the clues mystery to solving a contagion problem as well as a zombie flick and the fact that once it starts and it starts pretty fast it never lets up for a second made it one of the most thrilling experiences ....
It's a movie that's definitely more concept based than it is actually Actor based but that's kind of what makes it great and and in the end from now on I'm gonna hold this in a much higher esteem when I discuss zombie movies.

Can I holla at yall about the fight scenes in Atomic Blonde ???
Like Keanu has the fluidity, Koji has swag, You know what Theron had...the rage. Every single hit even while missing some of that smooth fluidity is filled with personal rage that informs the character and gives the fight personality...
In a piece I wrote about Tom Cruise I talked about natural ability to show Taking hits just as well as he gives, it's an important aspect that I noticed a lot of action folk whom I actually love aren't very good at...
The best these new post George iterations had to offer. Despite the story being referential to the past, it felt refreshing still. . The acting was the best, by far, the action was top flight, and when it bowed to the old it mostly got it right by just having a good time
One thing I've been working on and frankly failing at is trying not to understand why ( therapy already helped with that ) but how to stop obsessing over people I like seeming not to really fuck with me...
This is the spot where losing my therapist ( she had a familail situation and I could no longer afford it- came at exactly the wrong time ...
Because she was already talking about the difference between understanding something and internalizing it, and then boom gone...
I feel like I can always tell even from a trailer when a movie looks like it was actually well thought out and from a desire to continue the strory or just pushed out because they are aware of its legacy and big $ is on the table. Whether it's good or not I can tell it's organic
Since the first Matrix Lana and Lilly always impressed me with their inclusiveness in a world where science fiction in general has NOT...Hell even with BR 2049 poc were so restricted to the background it was hellacious to me
@mattzollerseitz is right, I mean right down to the socks no one is casted right, they even miscast Kennedy IF you're focused on looks because I've only been watching a few minutes and I've already settled into the characters
Wish I knew more about the outlier characters because they seem important to the lore but I don't know enough about it to recognize
