I've never been offended by a film.
Jules and Jim (1962) - Decades of a love triangle concerning two friends and an impulsive woman. (7/10)
The Return of Josey Wales (1980) (5/10)
Kill Me Please (2015) - Did not get it. I don’t think anything even came of the plot. (6/10)
Batman: Gotham Knight (2008) - A collection of key events mark Bruce Wayne's life as he journeys from beginner to Dark Knight. (6/10)
2 or 3 Things I Know About Her (1967) - A day in the life of a Parisian housewife/prostitute, interspersed with musings on the Vietnam War and other contemporary issues. Not quite what I was hoping for, but in the end I’d say it was barely good. (7/10)
Juliet of the Spirits (1965) - Visions, memories, and mysticism all help a 40-something woman to find the strength to leave her cheating husband. (7/10)
Il Bidone (1955) - A trio of con-men led by a lonesome swindler must deal with their job and family pressures. (7/10)
Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy (1955) - Disappointing. It was just all right. (6/10)
Le Bonheur (1965) - François, a young carpenter, lives a happy, uncomplicated life with his wife Thérèse and their two small children. One day he meets Emilie, a clerk in the local post office. (7/10)
Things Are Tough All Over (1982) - Liked it quite a bit better than I expected. (7/10)
Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) - I knew all along I wasn’t going to like this as much as everyone else. It was good, but just that. Good. I liked it better closer to the beginning. It felt like too much stuff thrown together without reason. It really started to lose me near the end. It didn’t impact me emotionally at all. (7/10)
The Bad Sleep Well (1960) - Extremely good and right on the level of Kurosawa’s best. A gripping story and masterfully done. It should be seen way more. The best movie I’ve seen in a while. (8/10)
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings: 7/10
DC League of Super-Pets: 7/10
My last two weeks.
Millennium Actress (2001) - Good and interesting. There were some things it could have done a little better. It didn’t connect with me emotionally like I was hoping. (8/10)
Secret Window (2004) - It was good. I knew before watching that there was a major twist so I was disappointed that I guessed what it was. (7/10)
Belle de Jour (1967) - A frigid young housewife decides to spend her midweek afternoons as a prostitute. (7/10)
Viridiana (1961) - Viridiana, a young nun about to take her final vows, pays a visit to her widowed uncle at the request of her Mother Superior. Didn’t like it as much as I hoped, but it was good. (7/10)
Bodies Bodies Bodies (2022) - Really good. There were certain parts where I wasn’t sure about it, but it was actually really tense, which I didn’t expect. The third best movie of a terrible year. (8/10)
Pandora’s Box (1929) - The rise and inevitable fall of an amoral but naive young woman whose insouciant eroticism inspires lust and violence in those around her. Not as good as I expected. (7/10)
Samaritan (2022) - I figured with the circumstances surrounding its release that it wouldn’t be good. It wasn’t bad either. All these people were saying that the twist was so obvious but I never saw it coming at all. (6/10)
Predestination (2014) - Really good. I still can’t understand it, but it was really cool. It deserves to be more highly regarded. (8/10)
Stir of Echoes (1999) - After being hypnotized by his sister-in-law, a man begins seeing haunting visions of a girl's ghost and a mystery begins to unfold around him. I expected better of this one. I wouldn’t have expected it to be well-received. (6/10)
The Invitation (2022) - I was looking forward to this one, but damn this movie stunk. The story and script were super weak. I found the character to be annoying. (5/10)
