Best movie - Conclave
Best movie (foreign, non English) - Emilia Perez
Best leading actress - Mikey Madison from Anora
Brutalist also got a lot of recognition.
Thoughts on Emilia Perez, anyone? I read about controversy of the leading actress Karla Sophia Gascon and her/his previous tweets. Ironic that a trans person was so derogatroy against blacks, Islam, and diversity.
Side note - SNL 50 reunion was a bit of feel good show. That show is a cultural icon producing so many stars. It feels like at this moment or generation, it is a bit of a flop but you never know, 10-15 yrs later, some of the present cast might be stars.

I really don't care much about Karla - honestly, the script was decent and I wouldn't have cared who played the role - for a split second i thought it was Channing Tatum in makeup (mostly because he did a lip sync dance off as Beyonce before LOL).
The Jorge
what an amazing concept. All I know is that it's romance and then it hit me. It was also a horror. WTF.
The story started well, fast paced, and fully understood what's going on. I liked Anya in Queen's gambit, not so much flop in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga so I didn't really expect much. Miles Teller aka whiplash, divergent, fantastic 4, Top Gun: Maverick... i mean he's decent, I guess just never had the charisma.
Please keep in mind this is not action and not romance.. it's a weird split which never find footing.
Official summary "two elite snipers who are ordered to guard a deep gorge without knowing what lies inside" Let's just leave it at that.
It's no use, even china's crappiest movie will gross more than ever. It's just the population. HK tries but it just won't get there. You just have to be super lucky to be able to have the HK movie play in China.
lastly, the investments went from 36 movies invested in 2018 down to 4 movies in 2024. It's a tough business to be in.
it's being played here in Vancouver, limited time.
From the trailer, it looks part Mulan with Asian values, part Harry Potter with magic/spells, part Marvel with superpowers, and part Shang-chi with dragons and fantasy.
Unstoppable
what a great movie. Super happy go lucky esp when it's based on a true story.
Not a huge cast but it was done well and acting was legit. Yes it was played by Jen Lopez + produced by Matt Damen and Ben Affleck, guess that's what happens when you were married to her.
Story about one legged wrestler that's really all you need to know.
Bobby Cannavale plays dead beat step dad, Michael Peņa + Don Cheadle were coaches and Jennifer Lopez as the step mom.
Captain America - brave new world.
So we took over the theatre and hosted a corp event.
It was either Joker, Red One, Wicked... but finally happy to land on this one.
I gotta say, they tried super hard to solidify a good script and they did ok. With a budget of 180M and with 200M, it's NOT bad.
Yes, we all saw the trailer and we did find out MOST of the movie in it. Won't ruin it for you all but I have to say it wasn't that bad.
Few memorable mentions, Giancarlo Esposito - who did breaking bad - the action scene with the guns was pretty good sound effects was a decent cast. The WORSE person to be casted was Shira Haas(Unorthodox (2020) was her break) but I did not like her at all; did not know why they casted at 5 ft 2 supporting lead. Weird.
Movie could've been shorter and added a bit more pull with Liv Tyler; she pretty much just had 2 min scene ... weird.
All in all... will it ever be better than end game... never. Was it worth it. it was a 6/10
I had low expectations but can't really pin point how or what woudl have made the movie bettter.
