Eddington (2025) Review

Ari Aster’s latest film, Eddington, diverges from his horror roots to explore a COVID-era neo-Western. Starring Joaquin Phoenix as a wannabe mayor navigating political extremes, the film offers dark humor and commentary on the impact of social media. Despite its polarising reception, the film showcases Aster’s typically bold storytelling and visually striking cinematography.

Mycreativeramblings’ Alternate Academy Awards 2023

2022 was a strong year in film, and this was rightfully reflected in this year’s Oscar’s lineup. From Baz Lurhmann’s instant camp-classic Elvis, to Martin McDonagh’s jet-black depression morality tale, The Banshee’s of Inisherin, to The Daniel’s insane ode to science-fiction/martial arts/the works of Wong Kar-wai; Everything Everywhere All at Once, it’s a refreshingly diverse line-up (at least in terms of genre, there’s still a depressing lack of representation for female filmmakers). Everything Everywhere All at Once ended up taking away the big awards which were rightly deserved.

However, while the line-up of films this year is surprisingly decent, I feel there have been some omissions. Here at mycreativeramblings.org, we wanted to rectify that.
