Reel James @reeljames.bsky.social · 04/01/2025The Jimmy Butler situation with the #MiamiHeat reminds me of Christopher Nolan and Warner Bros.: A great partnership until the end, which was ugly and quickly deteriorated, resulting in Nolan leaving and finally winning his Oscar.

Reel James @reeljames.bsky.social · 17/12/2024There’s no question #MufasaTheLionKing is head and shoulders above the 2019 film. My first impressions of Mufasa: The Lion King on Letterboxd: boxd.it/84G8Xzboxd.itA review of Mufasa: The Lion King (2024)Much better than the 2019 film, partly because there’s actual emotion we can see on these animals’ faces!

Reel James @reeljames.bsky.social · 10/12/2024I know I’m in the minority on this one, but #TheSubstance was pretty awful. Outside of a good Demi Moore performance, this story was a mess and the movie is overly long. I don’t get the hype. My ★½ review on letterboxd: boxd.it/813KvNboxd.itA ★½ review of The Substance (2024)Demi Moore gives a really good performance here! The story is definitely unique and a commentary on how vanity truly drives people insane. Looks ain’t everything! But outside of that, I don’t really g... 210

Reel James @reeljames.bsky.social · 30/11/2024#EmiliaPerez is a huge swing and miss, to me. I never got into a groove with the story and the musical numbers — while shot well — are a chore to get through. Stinks that they wasted Zoe Saldaña in this one. My ★½ review on #Letterboxd: boxd.it/7WdJZRboxd.itA ★½ review of Emilia Pérez (2024)“Emilia Pérez” is truly a unique movie musical. I enjoy how some of the numbers are shot, and Zoe Saldaña delivers a good performance! I just…don’t think enough of the musical numbers hit for me. Ther... 010
Reel James @reeljames.bsky.social · 30/11/2024I LOVED #Conclave! This movie is fantastic and the tension is built perfectly. It is 100% awards-worthy. And it’s immediately in my Top 5 of the year! My ★★★★½ review on #Letterboxd: boxd.it/7VSp8rboxd.itA ★★★★½ review of Conclave (2024)I loved “Conclave.” The tension was perfectly built from scene to scene, thanks to wonderful direction, a chilling score, great performances and an Oscar-worthy screenplay.

Reel James @reeljames.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Really?! I’m surprised because this is at least a big enough title to warrant a ton of screenings. Or at least I assumed. 😆 100
Reel James @reeljames.bsky.social · 26/11/2024I hope you all enjoy! I liked Encanto for sure, but Moana is much better, to me. 000
Reel James @reeljames.bsky.social · 26/11/2024I never expected #Moana2 to have the same charm as the first, but I expected it to at least have charm. The animation is gorgeous and Auliʻi Cravalho delivers a good performance! But the story, music and editing fails this sequel. Moana 2 really misses Lin-Manuel Miranda’s pen, too. 000

Reel James @reeljames.bsky.social · 22/11/2024I just got around to watching #DuneProphecy and… Ep 1 didn’t grab me. Outside of the exposition dumps, there wasn’t a storyline that hooked me. They’re planting seeds of mystery with Desmond Hart, but everything else? Eh.. I’ll give it a chance to see if next week is better. 020

Reel James @reeljames.bsky.social · 18/11/2024😆 This is awesome, though! Does that mean we can all expect a full breakdown on the film from you? I can only imagine your view on the movie is gonna be so unique (and you’ll bring context and insight I definitely don’t have for this movie 🙌) 110
