Okja

Okja is definitely a touching movie, but the tone was off, and a lot of the characters were like caricatures. I could never quite get into it.

Okja is a weird movie. It’s about a genetically modified “super pig” that looks like a giant hippo. It gets raised by a little girl in the forest for ten years, and then the company that made it wants it back. The characters are super odd. They’re like caricatures. I didn’t particularly enjoy Tilda’s performance as twin sisters – which by the way, is she typecast into only playing twins now? And Jake was super bizarre as the doctor.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

Jake is a good reason to watch this, but I'm not sure the hair or the accent really suited him.

Bubble Boy

Yay Jake Gyllenhaal..even if his hair is a little weird in this one. Way better than I was expecting. All the people he meets on his journey are great.

Zodiac

Despite the fact that this version is much better than The Zodiac, I didn't nearly fall asleep during The Zodiac like I did while watching this. The aesthetics here are more interesting, as is the tack of focusing less on the killings and more on the people affected by them. It also has a more solid, satisfying ending.
