  9. imthegrimace liked Aaron Mook's post in the thread Movie Last Movie You Saw, Name & Review.

    The Holdovers - 8/10 Punishingly cozy and feel-good, even if it feels somewhat predictable. In this particular case, that is a feature and not a bug. You could probably shave 20 minutes off the the first half of the film considering the insane (and very funny) plot device they use to get the rest of the titular Holdovers out of the school for Christmas break, but the movie is truly just so goddamn pleasant that you don't really care. Payne putting this good of a cast in a snowy New England setting and making a film that looks this good doesn't feel like a "comeback" or a "return to form," it feels like a victory lap. The Holdovers is lovely enough to become an alternative holiday staple, but crass enough that you get to hear Paul Giamatti call someone "penis cancer in human form." What more do you people want? In a Violent Nature - 8/10 A fresh, capital-S Slasher that somehow manages to be exactly what it's marketed as (Friday the 13th almost completely from Jason's perspective) while also being something completely different (a satire on the genre as a whole and what those films look like through the current lens of elevated art-house horror). Is it slow and brutal? Yes. Is it filled with supernatural lore that is taken at face value, shitty teen dialogue, and borderline comic timing during the year's most vicious kills? Also yes. In other words, it's very, very close to being great, and it may even become great over time. You certainly haven't seen anything like it, even if the initial description feels a bit like throwing it back to Michael's POV scenes in Halloween. Beautiful, ambient, creative, ultra-violent, and shockingly funny. I can't wait to see it again. Funny Games (1997) - 5/10 Undeniably well-directed, just unflinchingly harrowing and nihilistic cinema with absolutely outstanding performances. That being said, I can't in good conscious give this film a higher score when I so vehemently disagree with what it's trying to do. I'm sure this may have been interesting to certain filmgoers in 1994, but it's tough to judge a film designed to provoke the audience this way when it feels so dated and proto-edgelordy now. (In all honesty, Lanthimos' Killing of a Sacred Deer does Funny Games' premise better, even if it obviously borrows from this film). Taking issue with violence in media is one thing, and Haneke's opinion as a non-American director may very well be worth hearing out, but while the fourth wall breaks are interesting in theory, making (in his words) a "meaningless" film to simply call its audience complicit for enjoying violent film is eyeroll-worthy and dorky as hell. The most realist performances in the world can't save you from on-the-nose dialogue about reality vs. fiction and a TV splattered with children's blood. I know subtlety isn't the point here, but I think a little would have gone a long way.
