Project X (1987)

I hadn’t heard of it either until recently—and yet, it’s one of the highest grossing movies of all time.

A bumpy journey about revolution and family makes us feel fear, disgust, humor, and satisfaction.

A young girl named Hailey Mays sings a country song that is named after the film's title.

Much more than a meme, 'Barbenheimer' actually diversifies viewer bases and spreads the important message of both films wider than they otherwise would have!

What seems like such a simple story of survival is so much more than that—it’s a story of family, and of war, and of destruction. It’s painful to watch, but not in a bad way. It makes its audience reflect on their own actions, and in how they are complicit in the sufferings of others as the adults in this film are. Grave of the Fireflies does not hold back from being heartbreaking, and it shouldn’t. It tells a message that needs to be heard decades after the war, and a story that cannot be forgotten by history.

Overall this movie was an easy watch, but by no means a worthwhile watch.
