A real pain
The Kieran Culkin + Jesse Eisenberg duo is absolutely incredible. Great flick if you like real dialogue and believable characters. It has a lot to say!

I just saw this and was totally enrapt in it the whole time. I felt all of my emotions during it ; it did such a good job capturing the nostalgia of being with someone you grew up with and the deep sadness of kieran culkins character

A Real Pain (2024)
This movie was a beautifully simple and complex film at the same time. I highly recommend as this was one of my favorites I've seen this year. A REAL PAIN follows mismatched cousins David (Jesse Eisenberg) and Benji (Kieran Culkin) as they reunite for a tour through Poland to honor their beloved grandmother. The adventure takes a turn when the odd-couple's old tensions resurface against the backdrop of their family history. Written and directed by Eisenberg, this film shows the beauty of Poland despite the tragedies that have occurred. Kieran Culkin is truly given the opportunity to explore his emotional range and gives an absolutely captivating performance. Eisenberg holds his own and plays against Culkin really well.

a real pain
I would have put The Brutalist or Conclave on this list had I not just watched A Real Pain by Jesse Eisenberg. Incredibly poignant and touching portrayal of loss and how pain is reverberated throughout time. Kieran Culkin had me sobbing like a puppy. I rate it: 5 bags of popcorn and a copy of Holy Rollers.

A real pain
even though it also made me cry, this movie really made me laugh. Especially the scene with the statue, but also a lot of other times. No big comedy punchlines, just the funny awkwardness of daily human existence. Kieran Culkin is such a funny actor, I had a huge crush on Roman Roy. love that also in this movie, even though his characters carry a sadness/heaviness, they’re still super witty and playful.

Wired headphones!!!
Now that they’re not trendy anymore, it’s time to see who the REAL wire fans are. A fun button to change the volume, no charging necessary, and they go with every outfit!! And let’s be real…untangling them is fun! It’s like a little game

Actually eating breakfast
Guys, there’s a reason people say it’s the most important meal of the day. Nothing beats some eggs and toast in the morning. Start your day off right!!

Love em. They’re essentially the literature form of TikTok. If you don’t like it you can just skip to the next. Incredible!
