Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by M.10rda - Today at 11:26:38 AMROOMMATES (2026):
A Madame pick starring Adam Sandler's adult daughter Sadie, who apparently has appeared in most of his films from the past 15 or so years. (I... wouldn't know!) Sadie looks like a perfectly attractive young lady in wide-shot/from a distance, though in close-up it's pretty hard to avoid her facial resemblance to her father... plus she's got his nasal accent and inflection, too. Okay, I'll say it - she's pretty much a younger, slightly sexier
"Jill" from Sandler Sr's infamous JACK & JILL. (I admit I've watched the trailer and a couple random/oft-discussed scenes, like Sandler Sr's romantic scenes w/ Al Pacino.) I don't know how this may impact Sadie's future career prospects... ROOMMATES is produced by Adam, but he's got enough loot to keep underwriting his daughter's career, I'm sure.
Sadie is a college freshman forced to shack up with a complete sociopath (Chloe East, the Mormon who wasn't Sophie Thatcher in HERETIC, though I didn't recognize her until after the film because she was a Mormon in HERETIC and in ROOMMATES she's in a tiny bikini, in flagrante delicto with jocks, etc). The film is narrated in flashback by their R.A. (Sarah "Squirm" Sherman from "SNL", which I don't watch too much but maybe I should 'cause Sarah is a real weirdo and I like her). This framing sequence - where Sherman relates the sketchy narrative to the memorably named Storm Reid and Ivy Wolk (who is also weird and hot) - makes me think ROOMMATES was subject to rewrites and reshoots, but then maybe all Sandlerfilm shooting scripts read like they've been heavily meddled with in post.
Much of this is no better than the early Sandler vehicles I remember from the 90s and early 00s, but I do like that the film refuses to cop out at the end and reconcile Sadie w/ unrepentant psycho East. Instead, East is punished (somewhat) for her crimes, and for that matter Sadie is hald accountable for her own. ROOMMATES bizarrely swipes its resolution from the bleak-as-hell David Mamet play "Edmond" (also a film directed by Stuart Gordon), though ROOMMATES somehow puts a jolly spin on it.
3/5 With welcome appearances from Natasha Lyonne, Carol Kane, Janeane Garofalo, and a Sanderfilm obligatory Buscemi jump-scare near the climax.

Absorbing documentary about the Seattle "grunge" craze, from its humble beginnings as a small, insulated local music scene, to its worldwide explosion thanks to the surprise success of Nirvana, and its inevitable death by overexposure and mainstream acceptance. Loaded with cool concert clips and interviews with members of Soundgarden, Mudhoney, Pearl Jam, the guys from Sub Pop Records, and many more. A true time capsule.

Last post by Rev. Powell - Today at 09:31:07 AMFLEE (2021): An Afghan immigrant tells the story of his childhood and the troubles his family endured fleeing the Kabul before it was overrun by the mujaheddin. This empathetic historical documentary is (competently) animated to preserve anonymity (although the subject, though heavily traumatized, has nothing to be ashamed of). 3.5/5.
