Mickey 17 (2025)
He's dying to save mankind.
Filmmaker(s): Bong Joon Ho

Unlikely hero Mickey Barnes finds himself in the extraordinary circumstance of working for an employer who demands the ultimate commitment to the job… to die, for a living.

Animal Love love story, a very clever and dear love story. I like anything Bong Joon Ho does, but find his social commentary often gets in the way. So, subtract that out here. It has little to do with his overlap of cinematic and story...

Pirates! Ghosts! Samurai! not sure how much I will be able to devote to a study of Japanese cinema. I am attracted to films that rinse modern concepts through a Shinto lens. So the filmmakers and projects I value are actually few. But you have...

Citizen Asta has long been attractive to vain actors, despite its opposing energy. Mel Gibson! Olivier! So many… And such committed variety. There are four notable things. The first is that the play may be the richest long form narrative in history, essentially inventing poetic metaphor....
