How many 5-star classics in the 20s so far? I got four - Licorice Pizza, Tar, Nope, and Zone of Interest.

it’s still been a fun couple of weeks at the movie, was really cool to see how full the theater was for Anora last weekend and the movies this weekend have been a mad house with Gladiator and Wicked crowds

Plenty of good movies. Absolutely no great ones. One of those years (at least for me).

What do you think is the last 5 star classic we got? Once Upon A Time in Hollywood feels like the one to me. Theres been other movies that felt as good at the time but factoring in entertainment and rewatchability this feels like the one

reply

lindaaross.bsky.social•95 days ago

Yes! And then watch it multiple times to memorize key lines, and critique the plot.

I’d trade one 5 star classic for 7 more Sandler/Barrymore rom coms

kds-big-day.bsky.social•95 days ago

Look Back is the closest thing this years come to giving us a 5 star in my opinion

Unrivaled production design. So very enjoyable. But no, 3 stars.

Agree to Disagree there

Killers of the flower Moon!

andyarsonnewton.bsky.social•94 days ago

I have it at 4.5 stars. Near perfect, with an absolute all-time ending.

mrtillkvist.bsky.social•94 days ago

Saw it in a theater. Was so moved and impressed! Love it from minute one all the way through!

I don’t disagree. Although I have it at 4.5 stars.

andyarsonnewton.bsky.social•95 days ago

Of the 1,500 films I have logged on @letterboxd.social, only 17 have a 5-star rating.

Am I too elitist?

jepperpack.bsky.social•95 days ago

Survive till 25 I guess

ducvu.bsky.social•95 days ago

I find myself giving a lot of movies a half star bump on Letterboxd and only to edit my ranking a year later

reply

focuspull.bsky.social•94 days ago

This year we got Sing Sing and Ghostlight. 5 stars in my book.

'Therapy through theater' is my favorite subcategory this year.

A Different Man also falls in that category.

Your 2024 3.5 star movies are Trap, Snack Shack, Jim Henson Idea Man, and The First Omen. I wouldn't want to trade a single one of those!

There can be only one Challengers

reply

kennybacak.bsky.social•95 days ago

This year has been one of the most average movie years in recent memory. Somehow Dune 2 and Challengers are two of the best films I’ve seen all year and they came out 7 months ago.
