I’m Marty Keys, Kumquat review guy. This summer, I gave up an internship in exchange for raw, hands-on, movie-watching experience. If you missed these summer flicks, don't watch them, I’ll catch you up to speed:
SpiderMan: Brand New Deal:
Kinddd of a flop more than a swing. Spiderman kept getting beat up which was really terrible writing. I’ve made many superhero characters which are way stronger. Next!
6/10 SpiderMen
Obsessive:
I’m obsessed with this! At first I had no clue what this cautionary tale was about. But one reddit-rabbit-hole and three podcasts later, I see the film's message clearly: the danger of genies.
8/10 Magic Lamps
The Odyssey:
Oughta-skip this one. More woke garbage from Disney. I’ve cared a lot about historical accuracy for about 2 weeks and this was nothing like Hercules nor Zack Snyder's 300.
1/10 Cyclops Eyes, I notice these things
One Night Only:
Ok. So sex is banned ALL YEAR? Boo-hoo. Story of my life as a film-school sucka! I get no respect! No respect!
7/10 Truth-bombs!
The Backrooms
This was horrifying. I quit my job search shortly after. Monsters can be in stores, a hard pill to swallow for the complacent movie-goer.
10/10 Rooms, there’s probably more
Toy Story 5: Un-Plugged
Sends a deadly message to kids that it’s good to be off-the-grid. You’re not better than me just cause you don't have instagram. Do you think you’re better than me?
5/10 Toy Stories
Minions VS Monsters:
This made me slap my belly and laugh. I love Minions beboi.
10/10 All Funny Moments.
