As I’ve said before, this Film Independent membership is coming through in spades! I got the opportunity to view three more upcoming 2021 titles, and they will generally be worth your time! Nostalgia brought me back to the rest of the titles I watched this weekend, so I got a nice balance out of it all. Let’s go!

Weekend Movie Review
This weekend touted a real hodgepodge of quality. Some were pretty darn good, some were rather mediocre, and some were just downright bad. Also, I got my hands on some brand new films…although that’s not always a good thing.

My membership with Film Independent is really pulling through with some awesome viewings! I was able to see a small handful of films this past week before they were available to the general public, so I figured I should share with you all on a high level what happened in all of them!
Read moreBest and Worst Films of 2020
We already know that 2020 was the worst, but that doesn’t mean movies let me down! Well…at least not all of them. I watched 245 films this year and there were certainly some stinkers, but for the most part, 2020 delivered some very impressive indie films (my favorite), and I unearthed some older titles. That’s one thing this pandemic has been good for: making time for movies I’ve never had time for in the past. Let’s talk about my favorites, my least favorites, and some bonus runner-ups!

There were some brand new films this week, some insufferable ones, and even some from HBO Max this weekend! Let’s dive in!

As a new Film Independent member, I get the scoop on movies now! Independent ones anyways, but those are my favorite kind! So you’ll see one of those, a documentary (unheard of!), and some other oddball new and old releases. This is also probably the last of the Christmas movies you’ll see me reviewing, so enjoy it while you can. Ha!
Read moreAnother Round Film Review
As a die-hard fan of Hannibal, I have been obsessively trying to get my hands on Mads Mikkelsen’s latest film, Another Round. This Danish film has been getting lots of love and critical acclaim since its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. It’s also been entered as Demark’s entry into the 93rd Academy Awards!
Read moreBrand New Movies!
To be fair, I have been watching new movies, but to clarify, this weekend I watched a few potential Oscar contenders, along with some other new movies! This is exciting stuff people! With the Oscars getting pushed back to April, there is more time for contenders to release, which means I have to wait until next year for a good chunk of them. That’s why it’s exciting to get to see some now!

Some new, some old, some new to me…a cornucopia of films this weekend! I’d say I’ve primed myself nicely for this holiday weekend’s viewing standards.

Unlike October, I have totally been slacking this month! Last week I didn’t watch a single film and this week I only got three in before my internet crapped out on me. A disappointing turn of events, but there is still time (and a holiday weekend) to catch up! Also, a fun fact about this trio of movies – they were all only an hour and a half! I love a good movie that can get their point across without dragging it past the two hour mark. It’s just not necessary sometimes and I think more filmmakers need to take note.
