Prometheus
“How far would you go to get your answers?”
A rotten turd of a movie — while nice to look at, nothing about this movie makes sense, a symptom of Ridley Scott losing his mind or phoning it in?
★★✩✩✩
Solaris
“There are no answers. Only choices.”
A slow-burn psychological space drama, great acting, and nice direction from Soderbergh (who’s not talked about enough), a film that leaves you with much to think about.
★★★★✩
San Andreas
“The Earth will literally crack and you will feel it on the East Coast.”
Awful — The Rock carries this movie on his charisma so well it’s made me more excited to watch him in his next project.
★★✩✩✩
Garden State
“I know it hurts. That’s life. If nothing else, It’s life. It’s real, and sometimes it fuckin’ hurts, but it’s sort of all we have.”
Natalie Portman as a Manic Pixie Dream Girl, Braff as a depressed actor who after his first role is looking for meaning; cute and silly, but was rather profound when I was 14.
