'A Complete Unknown' - A Review. Top Story - December 2024.
It was a very pleasant surprise to come home on the Tuesday of this past week and discover, over dinner and exams needing my evaluations, that I had won a pair of passes to see an early showing of the Bob Dylan biography, “A Complete Unknown”. It was the very next day – 7 pm on Wednesday at Banque Scotia Cinemas in Montréal – and I could not find anyone at the last minute to join me.

It Ends With Us
It Ends With Us is a property that has always been surrounded by controversy. The original book has often been criticized for romanticizing domestic violence. Unfortunately that was something that was not fixed when adapted into a movie. It was only made worse. A lot of the issue actually surrounded the film's lead, Blake Lively. The internet finally caught on to the fact that she is truly a terrible person. Watch any interview with the Gossip Girl cast and you will see that none of that core group could stand her. Then we add in the fact that she went after Ryan Reynolds while he was still married. Sprinkle in the fact that they got married on a plantation. And top it off with the fact that they are both scabs who continued working during the strike. So when she used the promo of a domestic violence movie to promote her haircare line I was not in the least bit surprised. Framing it as a rom com was just icing on the shit cake. All that said I genuinely had to force myself through this movie.

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
Beetlejuice has always been one of my favorite films. Tim Burton’s early work is some of my favorite in film and I truly think he was an incredible director at some point. But that point has long since passed and I think sequels done over 2 decades after the original are desperate. They are desperate attempts at reclaiming prestige and cash. And though Jenny Ortega was an undoubtedly incredible choice I don’t think casting is enough to overcome a truly unnecessary film.
