Fight Club

Fight Club is a sexist portrayal of workplace dissatisfaction. I don't care to hear arguments about why women are inessential to the Fight Club plot because I don't care. I understand that it's just a story and it's completely fantastical but I still have a lot of issues with this movie and a lot of it has to do with the lack of women in this movie as well as its representation of the only female character.

Tallulah

Once the audience realizes the main plot of Tallulah, the movie really becomes a question of who is going to get in trouble for this, because in this (a little bit ridiculous) movie, there is just no way it'll end with the child being returned to her mother while also none of our main characters getting in legal trouble. That said, I do think this movie does a good job at keeping the audiences attention even though the ending is pretty predictable.

Cafe Society

Cafe Society is an amazingly entertaining movie. I love the way Woody Allen tells this story; there's so much more to make an interesting story out of when the timeline of the story covers a whole half a lifetime. Woody Allen proves that it's absolutely okay to only hit the main parts and the story still works.
He does an amazing job directing his actors-- there is so much good chemistry between them and the intended vibe flows seamlessly throughout the movie because all the actors are on the same page.

Suicide Squad

Yes, Suicide Squad is as bad as critics are saying, but that doesn't exactly mean that it's completely un-enjoyable. Yes, it's a jumbled mess, but it's still fun for fun sake if you like that sort of movie. It's a good movie to shut off your brain for two hours and enjoy fun colors and familiar actors and loud exploding fight scenes-- don't expect much beyond that.
