You Can See Everything

5.0/5Mike’s score: 5 out of 5

One of the most well-shot, interesting documentaries I've ever seen, and one of my top 3 movies of the year. 5 out of 5.

Whalefall

3.5/5Mike’s score: 3.5 out of 5

The most intense, claustrophobic movie I've seen in quite some time, and the scariest I've seen in theaters this October. 3.5 out of 5.

 Primetime poster

Primetime

4.0/5Mike’s score: 4 out of 5

My top pick of the week: Robert Pattinson nails Chris Hansen in the most A24 of A24 movies I've seen in a while. 4 out of 5.

 Heart of the Beast poster

Heart of the Beast

3.5/5Mike’s score: 3.5 out of 5

A heartwarming but very sad story about a man and his military dog. Beautifully shot and well acted, but a hard watch. 3.5 out of 5.

 Forgotten Island poster

Forgotten Island

3.0/5Mike’s score: 3 out of 5

The animation style alone earns Forgotten Island a 3 out of 5. It looks really good, but the story has a lot of conveniences.

 Practical Magic 2 poster

Practical Magic 2

3.0/5Mike’s score: 3 out of 5

I enjoyed Practical Magic 2 a little more than the original, but you absolutely need to see the first one first. 3 out of 5.

 The Dog Stars poster

The Dog Stars

3.5/5Mike’s score: 3.5 out of 5

A fantastically acted post-apocalyptic film that looks great, but you have to suspend your disbelief with the story. 3.5 out of 5.

 Mutiny poster

Mutiny

3.5/5Mike’s score: 3.5 out of 5

Mutiny is a fun time, and the best Jason Statham movie I've seen since The Beekeeper. Great action and unique kills. 3.5 out of 5.

 One Night Only poster

One Night Only

2.0/5Mike’s score: 2 out of 5

One Night Only has some funny moments, but it just didn't live up to the hype for me. Overall, very bland. 2 out of 5.

 The End of Oak Street poster

The End of Oak Street

4.0/5Mike’s score: 4 out of 5

The End of Oak Street doesn't always know what it wants to be, but it's super entertaining and beautifully made. 4 out of 5.

 Spider-Man: Brand New Day poster

Spider-Man: Brand New Day

4.0/5Mike’s score: 4 out of 5

Excellent casting, great visuals and Tom Holland at the peak of his game as Spider-Man. A heavier, more Marvel take. 4 out of 5.

 The Dink poster

The Dink

3.5/5Mike’s score: 3.5 out of 5

The Dink is hilarious: a pickleball comedy with great improv that feels like the early-2000s comedies. 3.5 out of 5.

The whole week

You Can See Everything got 5 out of 5. Agree?

One of the most well-shot, interesting documentaries I've ever seen, and one of my top 3 movies of the year. 5 out of 5. Seen it? Tell me if I got it right.
