2017: We're Halfway There

So now the year is officially half-over, and I have seen but 37 films so far. The movies I'm saddest to have missed before the end of June? Battle of Memories (dir. Leste Chen), Raw (dir. Julia Ducournau), and Prevenge (dir. Alice Lowe), and I'm hoping to catch up with Okja (dir. Bong Joon Ho) and The Bad Batch (dir. Ana Lily Amirpour) in early July.

That said...here are the 38 movies I saw, broken up into several categories.

Barely Remember
But what I do remember is...

• Burning Sands (dir. Gerard McMurray) - The chick who plays the Whataburger employee the pledges run a train on is the standout.
• Fifty Shades Darker (dir. James Foley) - That Zayn/Swifty song is oddly placed

If You Can't Say Anything Nice...
Zip ze lips, as my French teacher would say.

• All Eyez on Me (dir. Benny Boom)
• The Devotion of Suspect X (dir. Alec Su)
• It Comes at Night (dir. Trey Edward Shults)
• New Trial (dir. Kim Tae-yun)
• XXX: Return of Xander Cage (dir. D.J. Caruso)

The rest of the 31, after the jump...
