One of the major things I like about Agustín is not that he’s just an amazing goofy dad, but he’s extremely similar to his daughter Mirabel, when you really think about it.

According to director Jared Bush, Agustín is also a character who’s trying to fit in with the family, since he’s more city oriented because of his parents being from there. He’s goofy and clumsy JUST like Mirabel is as well, and I just love that. The thing that gets me though is that Agustín probably went through the same phase Mirabel did, where he was constantly trying to fit in and please Abuela, heck, Jared also confirmed that he wasn’t Alma’s first choice when it came to marrying Julieta, so I can only imagine him constantly feeling like he had to prove he was enough for his wife, enough for Alma, and it must have not helped his case since he’s a clumsy clutz all the time. Taking this into consideration only makes me love the scene where he stands up to Alma even more, because you could tell he was done with her crap, as well as not being enough for her just like Mirabel. The only sad thing is, during the events of the movie he’s accepted that he’s not perfect and embraced who he is, unlike his daughter, who at the time didn’t know her place and felt insecure. However, you feel so happy for both of them in the end, especially for Agustín himself, because his daughter had eventually seen herself the way he did all these years. ❤️‍🩹

So I’ve said before that I have a few critiques with Encanto here and there, (even though the movie is amazing of course) and I felt like sharing one small critique today!

So since the movie starts out with Antonio’s ceremony, then goes from that to Isabela’s engagement to the ending, I feel as if we never really got to know any of the characters as THEMSELVES fully without the plot, if that makes sense. (For example, I don’t know if the way Isabela treated Mirabel was how she NORMALLY acted all her life, or was just acting like that for the events of the movie or not) What I mean is, since all these things in the movie are happening that would make the characters under stress or react to something, we never fully get to know how they are on a normal day, what they’re like in general without a big event happening. While it is easy to predict how some characters would act by what we’ve seen (like Mirabel and Félix would be upbeat, or Julieta and Luisa would be caring) I feel like the movie should have started out a few days before Antonio’s ceremony, so then we can get a feel of how each character and each dynamic is, or at least most of them since the family is so big. Like maybe it would open with Mirabel telling stories to the kids about what her family is like, (just like the song but longer) and we have a short montage of how things run in the casita, THEN skip to the day preparing for Antonio’s ceremony. Now you could say Encanto is one of those movies where you figure out what some of the characters and dynamics are like THROUGH the events of the movie, and yeah I agree, but I still feel like if the movie had given a little time to the characters and even the setting (because I’m curious on the village, mainly how the village views Mirabel personally and her family) before the plot moved forward, (because I will admit the beginning is a little fast paced to take in everything) it would have been better, better than it already WAS though that is lol.

Encanto is still one of my current obsessions, so I certainly plan on sharing more critiques because I have a few more, and the reason why I say “critiques” is because even though there’s a shitload to praise, I can’t really say what anyone else has already said about this movie, it’s just phenomenal in so many ways, at least to me, so it would kinda be boring if I kept saying “this movie is good” over and over again, so why not share a few nitpicks and stuff I had right? So stay tuned for that, though I probably will praise it from here and there once and awhile.

Also I don’t know how this fandom is, so I’m a little scared to be honest to share critiques in general with this movie since it’s so huge, so please do not harass in the comments! I love this movie to bits but I still would love to share personal issues I had in the near future! ❤️

Argylle - A Breath of Fresh Air

**Spoilers Ahead**

I just got back from seeing Argylle with a friend. I knew I had wanted to see it because I like a lot of the actors in it, but I had seen the trailer so many times that I felt like I had already watched it.

That trailer couldn't have prepared me for the unadulterated fun I was about to have. Every other line out of Sam Rockwell's mouth was laugh out loud funny. What kept me drawn in, though, was the editing. The splices between Rockwell and Cavill was seamless. I know with modern technology, they easily could have greenscreened a lot of it, but it still must have taken a while to film all the same fight scenes in the same exact way to make the cuts as seamless as they were.

The score and soundtrack were brilliant. Between the funky tunes used for the fight scenes, and the dramatic notes used during what would be dramatic in a regular spy thriller, had me enjoying every minute. I will be looking up the soundtrack playlist on Spotify and listening repeatedly.

Henry Cavill is no stranger to playing a spy. In between Superman movies, Cavill starred in The Man from U.N.C.L.E. The latter was another movie that didn't mind being silly and wasn't afraid to have its comedic moments. Because Cavill has played so many daring roles over the years, where he's been the hero or the brute or even just the eye candy, he was the perfect fit for Argylle. You can tell he was having a blast, and not taking things too seriously. The audience isn't supposed to take it seriously either. The Argylle books in the movie are a personification of how cheesy those sorts of books and movies can be. The eye-rolling puns, the use of a femme fatale, and crude jokes.

Back in the day, that's how most James Bond movies were. They had their serious moments, but Bond was a cheeky spy who liked to fuck and crack wise with his villains. He was suave and sure of himself and a badass. But there was a transition in the 90's when the Austin Powers movies started rolling out. Now, I'm a huge fan of Austin Powers movies, I'll watch them any time, any place. But those movies, being replicas of the old Bond films but with more humor, outlandish sex, and over the top puns, made it difficult for the new Bond films to be silly. Suddenly, they were getting more and more serious, with more and more over the top action scenes and explosions.

Argylle brought back the silliness and the goofiness, and the ability to laugh at itself. Suspension of disbelief, etc etc. Sometimes you just need to sit back and let yourself enjoy the ride. Throughout the film, as the layers kept being peeled back, I kept thinking, "What is this movie?!" I can usually figure out what's going to happen, but the twists and turns in this film kept throwing me off, and that kept me in my seat and having fun.

There's a scene where Bryce Dallas Howard's character, Elly, thinks she's seen her parents die in cold blood. Rockwell is driving her somewhere in the south of France, and he asks her if she's okay. Howard, astonished, asks, "Am I okay? Am I okay?!", and then she started crying. This made me lean over to my friend and say, "all of us @ Elmo the other day", and we burst into hysterics. (If you're unfamiliar, Elmo's X account posted asking how everyone was, and there was a surge of responses of people using memes to show how not well they all are.)

A little more than halfway through, we find out that Elly's real name is Rachel Kyle. She had gotten into a bad accident on a spy mission and had no memory. The bad guys brainwashed her into thinking she was someone else, and it worked. The Argylle books she wrote as Elly, were really just memories coming back to her. We were made to believe her books were predicting future events, but really, it was the past. Samuel L. Jackson explained that to her. Rockwell then had to calm Howard down and get her to settle into the information. Slowly, Rachel remembers who she is. She hasn't lost all of Elly, but she makes it seem like she has in order to complete the overall mission.

Rockwell thinks that Howard has double crossed her, but in a very Knives Out fashion, she explains that she knew if she shot him in the chest in just the right spot, he wouldn't die. We learn that the two were lovers back in the day. Not only did he feel betrayed, but he was heartbroken. Later on, she double crosses the bad guys, finds her cat, then finds a room with all the weapons she could possibly need to get out. Rockwell finds her there, and they're able to hash things out. She assures him that they're on the same side.

This leads into one of the most incredibly choreographed fight scenes I've ever seen. You can tell the actors were having an incredible time. Smoke pours into the corridor and the two come out shooting. While throwing in body rolls and other dance movements, they take everyone out. This also included Howard lifting Rockwell up, much like how Dua Lipa was lifted up during the beginning of the movie by Henry Cavill, spread eagle. The shots used every time there was a lift like this was not subtle. We get it, it's an innuendo for sitting on someone's face. And it was funny every single time.

Then the next fight scene happened, which gave Howard a moment to shine. They were trapped in a room that was slowly filling with oil, so they couldn't shoot their guns. She remembers she's actually good at ice skating, and puts together makeshift skates. She sticks a knife into a gun, then rushes out like a hockey player. I thought I was going to pass out from laughing so hard. It was the perfect mix of hockey style skating and figure skating. Were these scenes filled with CGI and body doubles? Yes. Did it make them less fun? Absolutely not.

Everything works out in the end because of course it does. Her ending is given to Argylle and Wyatt. Personally, I think Henry Cavill and John Cena should have kissed, they were clearly in love. I thought they would have since Rockwell and Howard kissed. All of the scenes paralleled one another, so why couldn't that one? I digress.

For one last big laugh, at the end of the movie, Howard is back to pretending to be Elly the author, and is doing a book reading of the final Argylle book. She's taking questions from the audience, and she calls on a man. He stands and knowingly smiles. It's Henry Cavill, only he has a curly mullet and a southern accent. What is it with British actors and doing southern accents that brings me so much joy? He says, "I don't have any questions, but I'm sure you have a couple for me", and winks.

There was a post-credits scene. It was supposed to be the actual Argylle book's first film adaptation. The scene takes place in a bar called The King's Man. An Easter egg thrown in by director, Matthew Vaughn, who has also directed the 2021 film by the same name. We couldn't tell if it was serious or not, but I'd love to see a movie based off the fake books. I think mostly because the writer, Jason Fuchs, and Matthew Vaughn, should definitely team up again.

Even though there were parts reminiscent to other spy movies, this is one of the most creative movies I've seen in a while. This is my favorite kind of satire. There are so many movies that are just remakes of remakes of remakes these days. It feels like there are no original ideas left. So, this was a breath of fresh air. It was so funny and so brilliant with a star studded cast. I bet this movie was so fun to work on, you could just feel that energy radiating from the actors. There were some slower parts, but that's to be expected. For the most part, my attention was kept. It was one of those movies where I left thinking, "I can't wait for this to come to streaming so I can watch it again".

I don't think Howard is the strongest actor, and some of the plot between the good spies and the bad spies was a little confusing. I found a lot of that hard to follow, maybe that was supposed to be on purpose. Most spy movies aren't always clear on what the main issue is.

Anyways, if you're looking for an escape from the cold, or an escape in general, this is definitely the movie to see.

Maturing is realizing that the Madrigal family are all good people, they just lost sight of what was important over time because they were all so focused on their own struggles and desperately keeping their magic afloat that they ended up hurting each other and either not being there for one another, or not recognizing the other’s hardships. They’re a family who loves one another, but they’re broken due to the generational trauma. Certain characters hid their true feelings, certain characters weren’t there for others, certain characters kept their mouth shut and didn’t intervene, certain characters didn’t see or understand others. They were told how important this miracle is practically all their lives and how they can’t take it for granted that they eventually forgot about what was most important to them in the beginning, their love for each other. The Madrigals being a broken and flawed family but a family filled with good people who still care about one another deep down are statements that should coexist. 🕯❤️

So I honestly wanted to share my thoughts on one opinion the Encanto fandom seems to have that I personally disagree with. It’s sort of a popular thing most of the fandom has said. Most of the time it’s just an over exaggerated joke that I don’t mind, but others are genuinely serious, and while I can SEE where they’re coming from, I wanted to share why I disagree.

So it has to do with Mirabel and the family. If you’ve been in the fandom long, you’ll know that a lot of people like to joke about how the family pushes her to the side. How she sleeps in the nursery, how she wasn’t included in the family picture, and how she feels out shunned and ostracized. Again, some people will joke, but I’ve seen so many people go “Fuck the family, they treated her horribly, Mirabel should have been a villain”- all that jazz, and I just......disagree.

The thing about Encanto is it’s not necessarily the FAMILY that treats Mirabel herself horribly and excludes her, it’s ALMA. Alma is the main problem to everything going on with the family in the movie, and the movie KNOWS this. It’s about how Alma put pressure on every single family member, making them feel like all they were are their gifts and that they have to be perfect and earn the miracle they were given. Since Mirabel didn’t HAVE a gift, that’s what made Alma constantly push Mirabel to the side, and tell her to let the family shine and not get in the way. While she saw everyone as just their gifts, she saw Mirabel as someone who wasn’t necessarily part of the family, and again, the film KNOWS this. I’m not going to act like the rest of the family was perfect, but Alma is the center. She’s the leader, the person who runs everything, the person who PAINTS the Madrigals as a perfect family who will always come to aid. Because of that, that’s what CAUSED Mirabel to feel ostracized from the family. Alma made her believe that since she had no gift, she had no purpose, she didn’t contribute anything. While Mirabel herself ACCEPTED she didn’t have a gift during the events of the movie, she wanted to have a moment to shine in her OWN way, to prove that she belonged and that she could do something of worthy. I bring all of this up for a reason, and I first want to say that I’m NOT trying to villainize Alma, I know she’s not the villain, I just say all of this because it was HER who was excluding and mistreating Mirabel from the family, not the family themselves.

But if you disagree with me, let me deep dive more. Mirabel’s parents love her very much. They think she has nothing to prove, and that she’s perfect the way she is, especially her mother, and while she may not fully understand Mirabel from time to time, she’s still there to help. Then you have her sisters. Luisa is a big softie, she loves Mirabel and wants to protect her as well as the rest of the family. You can tell her and Mirabel are very close. Then there’s Isabela, who gets on Mirabel’s nerves. The two have a complex relationship, as Isabela sees Mirabel as someone who constantly gets in the way of what she’s trying to do. Isabela was mean yes, but even SHE doesn’t exclude her from the family. Then you have Antonio, who loves Mirabel and is one of the closest to her. He spent 5 years in the nursery with her, and has grown to love her for who she is. As for the rest of Pepa’s side of the family, they weren’t given enough time to interact with Mirabel so we don’t know the general dynamics, and while Pepa and/or Félix was confused or razzled by her actions from time to time, that doesn’t mean they don’t care about her.

Now listen, I’m not going to act like the family was perfect BY FAR. They could have treated Mirabel better, but some people act like they purposely hated her or didn’t like her because she didn’t have a gift and that’s not true. The family accepted that she didn’t have a gift, it’s not like Mirabel was depressed that she was in the nursery, or didn’t have a door, or even a GIFT. It was confirmed that she has accepted she didn’t have one, but she just wanted to shine like her family did. While I can totally understand some people thinking that the family mistreated Mirabel, it just pisses me off that some people portray them as characters who wanted to push Mirabel out of the way. 💀

I feel like Jimmy McGill is an improvement on Walter White as a protag for a couple of reasons, the first being that he’s genuinely got more heart and a desire to do the right thing. But I think the other major thing is that he is allowed to be pathetic in a way that fans can’t ignore to glorify him.

With the “I am the one who knocks” speech, I guess it’s easy to get lost in the intensity of Bryan Cranston’s performance. Out of context, it’s a very intimidating, iconic speech talking about the inner darkness of Heisenberg. In context though, it’s just him lashing out because his wife thinks he’s in over his head (which he is).

Compare to a similar scene with Jimmy in JMM, where he goes off on Howard on an unhinged rant. There is nothing to draw the viewer in, they see how unhinged and desperate it is in the context of everything else going on. Jimmy in this moment is pathetic, gesticulating and waving his arms as Howard just stonily walks away from the hurt child lashing out at him.

It feels to me like that without this mystique of a Heisenbergian figure, Jimmy is allowed to be seen for who he is, good and bad alike. Compare to Walt who still somehow has defenders and apologists due to the sheer power of watching a charismatically intense actor take the reins of a pathetic character and make ppl forget what he really is.
