Midnight Mass (2021)
Focusing on one performance
Give all of the awards to the actor who plays Beverly. I understandably hated her character, but you realize it's a testament to her talent. You're supposed to hate her, and it's her performance in the final episodes that really stood out to me above all.
I don't want to give away any spoilers. So, I'll try to be as vague as possible, but I'll just say at the end the quick conversation between the boy and the man. I kind of wish the man hadn't have asked for forgiveness so easily. I think without that, the conversation wouldn't given an additional layer of what everyone would have to come to terms with once the dust settled.
Also, for the doctor's mother they should've used two different actors because aging actors never looks natural. So, being able to tell that's what they did, it immediately let's you know what to expect with her character.
When it comes to makeup who saw that creature and thought, "yeah they're definitely one of the good guys." So, I feel like maybe there was an opportunity to not make him so gross looking, but maybe there's a deeper reason they didn't go that route that I didn't figure out.
I liked the show, and at the end it does leave you thinking, and leaves a lot up the viewer for how they want to interpret things, but I almost wish they would've taken more of a stance or made more of a stand alone point above everything else since the focus of the entire show is religion instead of all of these different little thinking parts that lead the viewer to figure out themselves the "problem" with religion.
They also could've made the whole transition part a little easier to keep up with because I thought the priest was able to start going out in sunlight again. So, did he or didn't he die at the end?
Overall entertaining with the standout performances definitely being the priest and Bev.
Malcolm & Marie (2021)
Giving it 7 starts for the cinematography and acting.
It's a movie about two people who have no business being in a relationship starting an argument in every room they enter in a house they don't own. That's it. That's the entire movie.
I'm Thinking of Ending Things (2020)
This isn't it
Coming from someone who loved Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind:
If I had to hear her talk about needing to go home that night one more time I was to smash my face into my tv screen.
Two hours of pretentious, pointless rambling. I kept waiting on some plot twist or shocking ending. (or really just something to make sense) There isn't one. Just a weird dance sequence, a naked man walking in front of a cartoon pig, and Jake accepting what looks like a Nobel Prize in front of what I'm guessing is the backdrop for Oklahoma? I don't even know. By that point all I could do was laugh I was so over watching this movie. Then, by the time it finally did end I was just pissed off it was so bad.
