What is the point of rating everything an A? Like I think it would make more sense if you made you like "A++++" into the only A's and then bump the others down a bit. IMO, C should be the grade for an average movie just like it is in school grades. Just because a movie is average doesn't mean you cannot enjoy it. Movies in general are enjoyable to watch. It just makes the grades have more meaning. Otherwise you become IGN where you shit on some qualities but in the end you give every single game the same score +/-10 out of 100. Edit - I understand that most of these movies are very good, but you cannot tell me that not one of these would be considered simply average in your opinion. I have to actively try to keep my grades reasonable when I do this. Because, at the end of the day I find watching a movie to be an above average experience, and so sometimes my grades will drift up simply because it was more fun than doing any other activity at the time. But the grades should really reflect the movie in comparison to other movies, not other activities. Holy shit, I went way too deep and wrote way too much on a topic that doesn't really matter. Sorry about that.
@@trumpetperson11 I understand, but I love blade runner too much to give it any less then what I did (my second favorite film) :) wasn't really going for anything logical or mathematically correct I just wanted to show my love for it y'know :)

11:42 heathers!! i watched this a few hours ago and when heathers popped up i smiled really hard! i first watched heathers when i was only 11 years old. it was the first movie that really made me think and had an impact on me. i’ve seen a fair share of movies with better directing, cinematography and better acting than heathers but it remains one of my favourites because i’ve never resonated with a movie more and it’s just so godamn entertaining also it would be fun to see you review l’amant, jennifer’s body and american horror story !

I have a tradition of watching beetlejuice every year on my birthday, so it was a pleasant surprise that you watched in my birthdays month. Also little shop of horrors and heathers are some of my favorite movies, so yeah
so happy u watched bacurau!!!!!!!! i never see anyone talking about brazilian films even though they are insanely good.. i’m brazilian and a fan, would love to see you talk more about it!
8:52 As a Brazilian i'm happy to know that peoples in other countries are seeing our movies and liking, here the cinema situation is Complicated because our govermant dont care about but people here still fighting to do movies and show the world our potential . Thank you karsten, I'm a big fan of yours ❤
My film recommendations: Oasis: supersonic - a brilliant documentary of one of the most iconic bands of the 90’s The chorus - an extremely optimistic french film with great characters Mission impossible: rogue nation - it is baffling that the 5th film in a series that has been going since the 90’s and based on a show from the 70’s is this good This is not a list specifically for Karsten, it’s just good film recommendations in general.

really interested on seeing your thoughts on Pedro Almodovar. He's probably my favorite filmmaker of all time and a think you could say interesting things about them
I just want to say these “What I watched this month” videos are probably my favorite videos you post because the way you talk about film is so intriguing and introduces me to films I either forgot or never even heard of before. Keep me coming!
you are one of my favourite film tubers because of how open you are to films of different genres and cultures. Even if it's not your thing you stay respectful to the artists behind it which is amazing.
I watched mean girls and clueless. Mean girls is very fun, and Clueless is awesome. I have become quite fond of the rich 90s-2000s teenage girl aesthetic.

Michael McNeil That’s just a me thing... I don’t really rate anything 5/5 unless I watch it multiple times and love it each time. All of these were first time viewings!
i was so hyped when you said bacurau!! bacurau is one of my favourite movies of all time. it's quite fascinating to experience it as a brazilian person and i don't think foreigners can fully understand it, and that's the magic of it. i feel it was crafted with that exact purpose. it was made by brazilians for brazilians and i adore it. the message of decolonizing your mind comes in the plot, the form, the purpose, it's so profound. i'm infatuated with it.

Hey Karsten! I love this series and have an idea of how to maybe make it even better. I think it might be a good idea to put the places to stream the movie on the frame with the poster and rating. Thanks and keep up the great work!
I watched “A man escaped” in my high school film club almost two years ago and I LOVED IT. I remember only a few bits of it but I know that I thought it was amazing. I’ve definitely have to rewatch it soon.
I am glad this series caught on. It is my favourite movie series on UA-cam, you peak my interest for movies without spoiling them, which is heavily appreciative. Cheers eh

A lot of Where'd You Go Bernadette's problems were mostly apparent in the book, it's really aiming for a specific audience and if you aren't it you won't like it.

SPR surprised me with its camerawork and overall feel of the film - you’re constantly on the verge of asking “wait, what just happened?” and the movie overall looks like it’s from the 2010s Tenet is so good mainly because it’s really complex and me being a fucking a nerd helped with the understanding of the movie. Plain and simple, i love confusing stories.

I don’t know if you have watched it yet, but About Time with Rachel McAdams is a really human rom com. I also would recommend The Fighter and Warrior, two amazing boxing/MMA films with more focus on character, especially Christian Bale in Fighter
eliza hittman teaches at my school! to be honest, i don't love most of her movies, but never rarely sometimes always knocked it out of the park. it took everything that she's good at and gave it a purpose that a lot of her films don't work that hard at. i'm so glad she did it, and i'm devastated that it came out when it did. i think that the theatrical release really could have made some money, especially after her silver bear award in venice.
i watched: -amy -palm springs -greener grass -the lighthouse -homeward bound -the guernsey literary and potato peel pie society -pretty in pink -submarine and rewatched 500 days of summer

11:42 heathers!! i watched this a few hours ago and when heathers popped up i smiled really hard! i first watched heathers when i was only 11 years old. it was the first movie that really made me think and had an impact on me. i’ve seen a fair share of movies with better directing, cinematography and better acting than heathers but it remains one of my favourites because i’ve never resonated with a movie more and it’s just so godamn entertaining
also it would be fun to see you review l’amant, jennifer’s body and american horror story !
The characters of Heathers are also just great. And the way you are not supposed to root for the characters was so cold and I love it.
Oh yes I saw Heathers in the thumbnail
Same

Holy shit, and I thought I needed to get a life. Respect though. I can never watch this many since I always waste so much time trying to figure out what I want to watch. One of these days I will learn that I could fit in more if I just choose one without 30 min of trailer and review research.
Harakiri is my third favorite film, I'm glad you gave it a 10/10.
This man has the same rating system as ign
@@sahymakhtar7445 This movie makes me feel like batman.
I hope you get the reference.
How dare you rate 8 1/2 a 8/10.
jaw just dropped when you mentioned you hadn’t seen Heathers. so glad you enjoyed it
I have a tradition of watching beetlejuice every year on my birthday, so it was a pleasant surprise that you watched in my birthdays month. Also little shop of horrors and heathers are some of my favorite movies, so yeah
Bresson is amazing i’ve seen A Man Escaped, and I just finished Pickpocket, both amazing yet simplistic movies
so happy u watched bacurau!!!!!!!! i never see anyone talking about brazilian films even though they are insanely good.. i’m brazilian and a fan, would love to see you talk more about it!
8:52 As a Brazilian i'm happy to know that peoples in other countries are seeing our movies and liking, here the cinema situation is Complicated because our govermant dont care about but people here still fighting to do movies and show the world our potential . Thank you karsten, I'm a big fan of yours ❤
I watched a legend pass away. RIP King. Wakanda forever
My film recommendations:
Oasis: supersonic - a brilliant documentary of one of the most iconic bands of the 90’s
The chorus - an extremely optimistic french film with great characters
Mission impossible: rogue nation - it is baffling that the 5th film in a series that has been going since the 90’s and based on a show from the 70’s is this good
This is not a list specifically for Karsten, it’s just good film recommendations in general.
I love the oasis documentary!

wait who?
Watch The Wicker Man 2006. Its so stupid its funny
Yes! The Wicker Man! One of my top 3 favorite horror films behind Psycho and The Exorcist
Woah. Nice
really interested on seeing your thoughts on Pedro Almodovar. He's probably my favorite filmmaker of all time and a think you could say interesting things about them
I just want to say these “What I watched this month” videos are probably my favorite videos you post because the way you talk about film is so intriguing and introduces me to films I either forgot or never even heard of before. Keep me coming!
I’ve rewatched heathers atleast 40 times in the last 4 years so
you are one of my favourite film tubers because of how open you are to films of different genres and cultures. Even if it's not your thing you stay respectful to the artists behind it which is amazing.
i'm happy that you liked bacurau, i'm from Brazil and i love your videos it's helping me a lot to practice english.
I watched mean girls and clueless. Mean girls is very fun, and Clueless is awesome. I have become quite fond of the rich 90s-2000s teenage girl aesthetic.
I am not a big fan of Mean Girls.
Some things annoyed me, but I really enjoyed Clueless.
I love these and I hope u never stop making them
It must be said that I do find myself looking forward to these whenever a new month starts!
The Bling Ring is pretty much the definition of "empty". The Virgin Suicides has a lot more going for it. That comparison seems really wild to me.
Thanks so much for watching Bacurau. As a brazilian it's super cool to see a movie that represents my country (and my region) get some shine.

Michael McNeil That’s just a me thing... I don’t really rate anything 5/5 unless I watch it multiple times and love it each time. All of these were first time viewings!
Emily andy Green On the Criterion Channel. You can get a two week free trial. 😄
I fucking love your what I’ve watched videos. Thank you so much. I actually find a lot of joy in your videos so thank you!
i was so hyped when you said bacurau!! bacurau is one of my favourite movies of all time. it's quite fascinating to experience it as a brazilian person and i don't think foreigners can fully understand it, and that's the magic of it. i feel it was crafted with that exact purpose. it was made by brazilians for brazilians and i adore it. the message of decolonizing your mind comes in the plot, the form, the purpose, it's so profound. i'm infatuated with it.

Hey Karsten! I love this series and have an idea of how to maybe make it even better. I think it might be a good idea to put the places to stream the movie on the frame with the poster and rating. Thanks and keep up the great work!
Hey Karsten, It's awesome that you gave a go to Bacurau! I'm from Brazil and it's great to see our movies out there! Thanks!
some people have a hard time getting into heathers because of the dry humor, im so over the moon you liked it so much
I love watching these videos every month because it gives me more movies to add to my ever-growing list of movies I really want to watch.
I'm from Brazil and I'm glad you enjoyed Bacurau. Such a good a film.
Pls watch ‘boy’ it’s a Taika Waititi film i feel like it’s too underrated
I watched “A man escaped” in my high school film club almost two years ago and I LOVED IT. I remember only a few bits of it but I know that I thought it was amazing. I’ve definitely have to rewatch it soon.
Everyine I watch one of these, I add 4-5 films to my movie watchlist
I'm so happy to hear someone else talking about Never Rarely Sometimes Always. I loved that movie so much but it feels like no one else saw it.
I am glad this series caught on. It is my favourite movie series on UA-cam, you peak my interest for movies without spoiling them, which is heavily appreciative. Cheers eh
I’m not a huge movie guy but I really love ur channel man keep it up
Sounds like a good month!
that sigh at 1:22 scared the fuck out of me
I don’t understand how these don’t have millions of views! I have watched every one of these twice 😂
I watched robots
Who didn't? Its a masterpiece
Well that's obvious, everyone watched Robots, the daily ritual must be obeyed.
Good.

Why the fuck is joker a 2.5
The replies to this are straight out of r/moviescirclejerk
First time I saw a low review of Tenet.
the fact you gave booksmart more than joker...
Always look forward to these
Huh. I think Virgin Suicides is absolutely beautiful and kicks Bling Ring's ass any day, but, to each their own.
Hey karsten you should watch "Silver Linings Playbook" if you haven't already, SUPER good romcom
Beetlejuice, little shop of horrors, heathers. Is karsten becoming a... musical fan???
I'm glad you have finally watched Bacurau!
I'm so glad you got your palette cleansed with some great movies after watching all the illumination movies. Like yeah, those lows are low, but those highs seem soaring
i love these videos karsten.
A lot of Where'd You Go Bernadette's problems were mostly apparent in the book, it's really aiming for a specific audience and if you aren't it you won't like it.
So happy to see Bacurau here. Try watch Invisible Life too, the brazilian last year entry for the Best International Feature Film at the Oscars!
If you liked Hands on a Hardbody, I would definitely recommend Monrovia, Indiana (Wiseman, 2018). I watched it in one of my documentary film courses last semester, it was a great time.
Great as always Karsten.

anyways, tried to catch up on the movies i hadn’t seen before and some of them i wasn’t allowed to see when i was a kid.
SPR surprised me with its camerawork and overall feel of the film - you’re constantly on the verge of asking “wait, what just happened?” and the movie overall looks like it’s from the 2010s
Tenet is so good mainly because it’s really complex and me being a fucking a nerd helped with the understanding
of the movie. Plain and simple, i love confusing stories.

karsten i’m so happy you enjoyed heathers i would have been heartbroken if you didn’t love it
Keep up the great content! Thank you Karsten for being my inspiration for starting my own movie review channel!
I don’t know if you have watched it yet, but About Time with Rachel McAdams is a really human rom com. I also would recommend The Fighter and Warrior, two amazing boxing/MMA films with more focus on character, especially Christian Bale in Fighter
i've been waiting for this for the last 3 days
You have my top favorite movies on this list yay!
eliza hittman teaches at my school! to be honest, i don't love most of her movies, but never rarely sometimes always knocked it out of the park. it took everything that she's good at and gave it a purpose that a lot of her films don't work that hard at. i'm so glad she did it, and i'm devastated that it came out when it did. i think that the theatrical release really could have made some money, especially after her silver bear award in venice.
i watched:
-amy
-palm springs
-greener grass
-the lighthouse
-homeward bound
-the guernsey literary and potato peel pie society
-pretty in pink
-submarine
and rewatched 500 days of summer
immediately clicked when I saw heathers in the thumbnail
I’ve waited too long for this.
Man. I'm from brazil. Your comentary of Bacurau is accurate. If you loved this movie check out "Som ao Redor" and "Aquarius". They're from the same director!!
Bresson with the ‘o’ sound if you fuck with the two movies you gotta watch “the devil, probably” easily his best
The favourite is one of the few movies I walked out of. But I generally like your recommendations
Tenet is a blast. 100% recommended. Go to the biggest cinema and you will have a great time.
