It’s a monstrously good episode this week, and it’s not just because we’re stomping through to begin the episode with the King Of The Monsters, but because Chloe’s back! Coming back in style, she returns with the mother of all reviews for the odd duck horror film Buddy.
This week’s picks:
Godzilla Minus Zero – The follow-up to the Toho masterpiece that, in my opinion, is the greatest Godzilla film ever made. This one is all about the fallout and consequences from the previous film, as well as an all-new threat.
Queen At Sea – Writer and director Lance Hammer returns with his second film, twenty years after his first. Tears are inevitable from the Juliette Binoche drama.
Run Terry Run – A prominent Canadian figure finally gets the expansive documentary he deserves, compiled from hours of footage found in storage lockers.
The Social Reckoning – Aaron Sorkin decides to give The Social Network a sequel but leans into all of his worst qualities. That cast is fantastic though.
Nouvelle Vague- In a new and deserved Criterion edition, Richard Linklater tells the story of Goddard moving from critic to filmmaker.
Young Mothers – The Dardennes tell a story near and dear to Chloe’s own experience as a teen mother.
Looking forward to next week: Ebenezer, How To Rob A Bank, Wild Horse Nine, Victorian Psycho and Club Kid
