2026 Movie Log

i found myself really liking this movie. it was incredibly nasty and gory and wild, and at the same time, i feel like it fumbled in a lot of areas. i think it executed the themes well, but by god it over-stayed its welcome. i checked the run-time when i paused it to let a friend go run to the bathroom and i was shocked when there was still 50 minutes left, especially when it felt like we were at a very big climactic moment. there were a lot of lingering shots i know were for impact but definitely could have been cut or shortened in some way. i say that but also the final 10 minutes of this movie was actually impecable and all movies need to take note. all in all... i enjoyed this movie. i think every man in hollywood should die.

WHY DID I AGREE TO WATCH THIS I'M NOT A 12 YEAR OLD BOY.

This got some genuine laughs out of me. It's a Disney movie at the end of the day, so it's gonna go exactly how you think it will, and IMO, it's not even one of their more re-watchable ones, but I thought it was still good nonetheless.

I liked this movie so much I finally went back and read the book. There's something very endearing about this story, but that might just be Ryan Gosling's new status as "sad pathetic pretty boy" type-cast actor getting to me.

This was a simple and sweet show. I'm not the biggest Pride and Prejudice fan, but I adore period dramas of any sort, and this was a very quick and easy watch. When I originally read the book, I found myself wanting more out of the sisters, so this fufills that niche desire. Do I think its a perfect story? No. The pacing is strange, and it suffers from an annoyingly obvious "third-act break-up caused by misunderstanding". But, I do appreciate the lengths it goes to to show that people do like Mary for who she is and that her mother's outlook on the world is what has warped a lot of her own ideas and her concept of herself. I think the characterization of the other sisters is definitely lacking, but this IS a story about Mary, specifically, so I can understand why.
