A Complete Unknown is a biopic about Bob Dylan hitting the music scene in New York. The acting is great but the story is fine although a bit aimless. It doesn’t paint Bob Dylan as a genius or saint. The music is good and actors bring a charm to their performances despite the subject matter being a little dull. It’s certainly worth a watch if you ever dug Bob Dylan’s music
Cinematic Coup de Grace

Thoughts on The Quick and the Dead
The Quick and the Dead is a Sam Raimi Western. The story is dumb. However, it is bombastic and has all the trademark shots that are Sam Raimi’s style. It is an okay time capsule of 90s pop corn action movie. It’s not great, but it is fun.
Thoughts on Anora
Anora is a great movie. The acting is incredible. The story itself, is good though the subject manner is depressing. It is like a sexy antithesis to a Cinderella tale. Anora is definitely worth seeing.
Thoughts on Heretic
Heretic is a horror movie from A24. The acting is great and the story is very solid and compelling. It is thought provoking and takes the audience on several twists and turns. It is absolutely a movie for horror fans of subtle psychological horror.

Thoughts on Moana 2
Moana 2 is the sequel to the hit Disney animated film. It is pretty and a very colorful film. That being said, it pales in comparison to its predecessor. Added characters seem superfluous. The plot and songs are largely forgettable. It isn’t a bad movie. It is just plagued with such mediocre themes that it doesn’t stand out.

Thoughts on Flow
Flow is an incredible animated movie. The film is about a group of animals surviving a natural disaster. It is beautifully animated. The narrative is easy to follow and sweet in its execution. Give it a shot if you like animated movies or enjoyed movies like, Miniscule.
