2026.01.06 - Boondock Saints, Semipro, Harold and Kumar go to White Castle, Reservoir Dogs.
  Reservoir Dogs is disturbing. I think Tarantino loves violence and torturing the audience, and his art feels tryhard. It's definitely a really odd, terrifying, and memorable movie halfway between art film and genre film.
  Boondock Saints -- Great, I based my personality on trenchcoat guy. Fucking love it. Hate Rocco, he was gonna fuck them up guaranteed. Also Tim Roth's character for selling them out and Harvey Keitel for holding onto his foolishness and getting everyone killed. It's unnerving to be on the side of the bad guys and hating the "good guys," it's very ironic that the undercover cop was shot by a civilian for stealing a car. As much as that torturer guy was a sociopath, at least he kept his cool. But... he DID start shooting civilians during the robbery and caused everything to go to shit, so technically he's also responsible for everything going wrong. If anything, Reservoir Dogs points out how classic Gangster Honor got them all killed.
  I definitely liked Boondock Saints more. I think I like it more than the Matrix, actually. The Matrix has a cool concept, but it's so hyped, and as part of a trilogy some of the coolest action doesn't come until later.
