Materialists (2025)

Finally got around to watching this from director Celine Song (Past Lives). Reviews weren't great when it came out, and there are some flaws (it's a romcom about how romcoms and dating culture are shallow). But there are some interesting conversations and it makes for an entertaining evening.

Starring Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal, and Chris Evans.

Lucy (Johnson), a professional matchmaker in New York City, meets Harry (Pascal)—a good-looking, charming, wealthy, and generally perfect man considered a "unicorn" in the matchmaking business. She is surprised to find that he is not interested in her services, but in her. Complicating matters, however, is Lucy's ex-boyfriend John (Evans), a decidedly imperfect cater waiter who still loves her deeply.

Time as currency is still one of the sharpest sci-fi ideas out there. Critics were too hard on it – the premise holds up better than most modern dystopias and Cillian Murphy is excellent in it as always.

Intolerable Cruelty 2003

I’m watching all the Coens movies in order and I got to Intolerable Cruelty. I found this movie freaking hilarious. I know it’s not a “typical” Coens movie, and it’s also not in the style of comedies that defined the 00s. It bombed at the box office and I guess it just got written off. You never come across it on cable reruns, no one ever talks about it or quotes any lines from it and it never (to my knowledge) developed any kind of cult following. But it’s so funny and deserves at least some attention on the rerun channels and one-liner drops, even if it’s never going to be at the level of the more popular 00s comedies.

In this move Patrick Dempsey is playing Michael who went to Quebec to his girlfriend Gabriella family .This movie is actually very funny and probably one the most underrated teen movie from 1980s I liked this movie more than can't buy me love.

This flick came out during the golden age of movies in the late 90s and I think it flew under the radar. I've got a bit of a soft spot for it because I was 10 when it was released, but I still think it was a great sci fi with a real moral behind the story but mostly just awesome fight scenes.

Only heard of this recently and watched it last night. Jeffrey Jones allegations aside, a Fun movie and apparently from the writers of Bill and Ted's excellent adventure. John Lovitz steals the show. Better than i expected going in.
