Movie Reviews, Not Books

Letterboxd Gems VIII

Hi everyone! Time for another edition of Letterboxd Gems. As a reminder: every so often I’ll post particularly funny or entertaining Letterboxd reviews from movies I’ve seen recently. If you’ve never heard of Letterboxd, it’s like Goodreads but for movies (feel free to add me if you’d like!) and there are plenty of interesting reviews. I’ll usually sift through them after seeing a film, which is how I got the idea to share them! A lot of these reviews will have spoilers, so feel free to skip through only to films you’ve already seen if you’d like to avoid being spoiled.


The Resort [2021]

about 75 minutes too long.

the best thing about this was that it was only and hour 15 

the worst thing about this was that it was made

Candyman [1992]

If Candyman was real I would simply just not say his name 5 times in the mirror 😌

candyman’s catchphrase really should have been “i am beesed to meet you”

Tony Todd’s voice is the 8th Wonder of the World

Malignant [2021]

maybe the real parasitic professor quirrell gemini brother was the friend we made along the way

Idk guys, this seemed pretty benign to me.
