Unfortunately I'm way too prone to painful cringe to enjoy bad stuff.

And yeah, I don't know what was up with neither the wolf thing or the bee thing. There was something with bees being engineered to recognize royalty or some nonsense.
Holy **** yeah, wasn't it like a bizarre DMV montage or something? One of those things that's so odd that you don't notice how boring it is.

I seem to remember and friend and I were just bored and went to go see a movie and we knew it was a sci-fi movie so we just said **** it.

I find the boring bits to be what's really hard to get through. The big action climax at the end of Jupiter Ascending was unimaginably tedious.

I remember thinking some producer really should have stepped in and said "NO! Bad boy!"

You Were Never Really Here

I've seen this film twice already. It's incredible. Sort of a Taxi Driver for this generation in terms of a guy sick of the bullshit and taking matters in his own hands with some serious, brutal disgusting consequences. Also deals with mental health in a really subtle way that takes its course throughout the film. Highly recommended if you get a chance to see it. Oh and Joaquin Phoenix proves yet again he's the fucking man.

Great flick.

"Sideways" - perfect mix of funny and touching.

Actually, time is real, as the rate of decay of ordered structures of matter, i.e. a half life. This is the sort of "time" that scientists are referring to when they talk about time dilation, affecting the rate of decay through a change of environmental conditions. Even if nobody is around to observe it, shit comes and goes, so time is as "real" as anything else.

I finally got around to seeing "Death of Stalin", the 2017 controversial comedy that got banned in Russia.
It was a lot less funny than I thought it would be, though it was pretty funny and hilarious at times.
It was a lot more scary than I thought it would be, the Stalinist terror is still terror, even if shown through an absurd lense.
The cast was just as amazing as I assumed it would be, I only wish Jason Isaacs (playing marshall Zhukow) would get more screen time, he stole every scene he was in, but it would be a different movie then.
The story seems to follow or mimic what happened in real life very closely, which any history aficionado with a sense of humor will appreciate. It won't be much of a spoiler, given the title, the movie is about the power struggle after the dictator died, ,focusing mostly on Khruschev (Buscemi is wonderful in this role) and Beria, the head of the secret police, played by an actor I don't recognize by name, but who managed to show just how big an immoral ******* Beria was.
Generally I'd give this a solid 8/10. It's not a movie for everybody, not good material for a date, you do have to stay glued to it, you have to listen to what is being said.
I loved it.
