My Life As A Movie

My Life As A Movie

Join Michelle, Helen and Tracy each week as we review a movie from a 'human' point of view. We delve into what they reveal to us about ourselves, others and the world we live in. We talk about how movies and the power of storytelling can be used as a tool for greater self awareness, growth and even change.

THE SUICIDE SQUAD
Published:

Helen and Jacob draw arms for a fierce debate over either the years best or worst superhero movie. Guardians of the Galaxy director, James Gunn, helms a stylistic and action-packed feature for DC, featuring another ensemble cast of unique and colourful characters who must learn to set aside their ideologies and differences and work together for the greater good. Helen discusses why she preferred the first film much more than this one, and Jacob reveals why he believed the movie was 'made for him'. We discuss the dangers of limiting the target audience to select groups. We also speculate on why this film performed poorly, despite receiving a generally-high critical reception. We also delve into Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn, and her transformation over the past few films, which demonstrate how self-care will always be important and necessary for you to start taking care of others. All in all, The Suicide Squad is an example of how the perspectives and interests of select groups dramatically alter the reception of a film so independent from the masses.

SUPERINTELLIGENCE - Super funny or Super flop?
Published:

Michelle and Tracy lighten the mood, reviewing funny woman Melissa McCarthy's latest collaboration with her director husband Ben Falcone. Tracy reveals why she needed this movie in her life while Michelle has a bone to pick with Falcone. We speculate on why the husband-and-wife's movies have rated so poorly and consider why Melissa continues to make movies with Falcone in spite of this. We talk about the dynamic between the two romantic leads and what it says about dating in real life. We reflect on women's insecurities in relationships and how the power dynamic between men and women is changing. We lament our love-hate relationship with apps and our need for technology 'lock downs.' We talk about how to have the material things while maintaining happiness. Tracy shares a simple exercise you can do to be happier everyday.

David Fincher's 2020 feature film, Mank
Published:

Tracy and Jacob review David Fincher's 2020 feature film, Mank, discussing the positives and negatives of its subtle storytelling style. We share our take on the production design, costuming, and music, and how they build the world of 1930s Hollywood. We also comment on the psychology of the characters represented, and the use of the Johari window in explaining the relationships between Mank and his companions. We then also discuss whether or not one should have to use the internet to gain context on a film before watching it.
