470. Ace in the Hole (1951), directed by Billy Wilder, rewatch
the only thing that has aged about this story is that it's about newspapers. now instead we have many more fun and exciting ways to distort the truth and profit from people's misery

The Kill Bill movies are ones that I have not revisited in years so it was a lot of fun to see this in the intended format. 4.5 hours and every scene fuckin' HITS.

468. The Bikeriders (2023), directed by Jeff Nichols, first time viewing
I like this portrait of a motorcycle club that reflects the turbulent times of the late 1960s and early 1970s. The three leads are great, but Jodie Comer is especially good as a normal woman who gets attracted to this danger.

Biopics aren't typically for me, but Rudy Ray Moore is such an outrageous character that this feels more like Bowfinger than a typical biopic. Fun from start to finish, both Eddie Murphy and Wesley Snipes are great.

465. Emily the Criminal (2022), directed by John Patton Ford, first time viewing
Solid crime thriller starring Aubrey Plaza as a food service worker in debt who joins a credit card fraud ring. I like that the movie doesn't feel the need to make you root for her and shows her with no moral judgment.

Definitely regretting not seeing this in theaters earlier this year. Irreverent, strange, and deeply silly in such a fun and hilarious. Hits that sweet spot of feeling like it came from a kid's mind but with thought and care.

Kept going back and forth on this, but once it commits fully to the nastier, more macabre side of the story (but still with a twinge of dark romance) in the final third I was move into it.

Strong start and Rose Bacon is good and sympathetic as the lead, but the more the movie delves into the mystery of the entity, the less interesting it gets, and the jump scares are pretty generic all around.
