Time Is Up 2 (2022)
Passes the Bechdel Test
This movie gets 10 stars from me because Bella Thorne acted her ass off. Her bright red hair was an Oscar in and of itself.
I wanted to make fun of the villain woman, for being obsessed with some kid from her childhood. But then I realized I could also remember the first and last name of my crush when I was 8. I looked him up on Facebook and he's a doctor and he has a brand new baby. 10 stars.
Too many movies try to "make sense" and don't have enough vibes. This movie is all vibes and no sense. Costume parties, proposals, children locking hands spinning in a circle slow motion through dappled light. Italy. Bella Thorne boning her bf in a gallery full of photos of herself. 10 stars
"I learned nothing" - my partner watching this with me. 10 stars.
Apocalypse of Ice (2020)
The right length.
This movie was the perfect length at 1:29:44 runtime. They did a great job at being an hour and a half long.
I respect the bravery of filming apocalypse snow scenes in what appeared to be summer in CA with a blue filter on top.
I admire the movie for unabashedly taking on a viral pandemic apocalypse and a winter storm apocalypse at the same time. A few years ago it would have been called unbelievable. Today, it's actually pretty much what I see on the headlines. Is this movie prophetic?
The budgeting choices were ruthless. It seems there was no money for special effects, but also no money for makeup, wardrobe, or believable dialog. Or ice, this ice apocalypse was often suspiciously devoid of any ice. I think maybe all the money went to hair, and some of the background music. Tough decisions were made and I respect that.
The scientific premise for why the world was ending (something about fires and glaciers and no salt in the water) was believable to me. But it should be noted I don't know anything about climate science. Maybe I do now.
Shadow in the Cloud (2020)
Weird, surprising, absurd
I wanted to give this movie a good review because it did the one thing that movies are supposed to do - entertain. I certainly could not guess where it was going. Sometimes it was believable, sometimes it absolutely WAS NOT, but either way, it kept my attention. This movie will not change your life but if you want to just relax with some popcorn, it's great.
