The goal is simple yet tedious. Watch as many movies as I can this year. I’m going to give myself a reachable goal, 5 movies a week. That’s 52 weeks. That’s 260 movies. Why? Cuz I gotta.
Included in this goal are my wife and a few friends.
- Allyson - Gabe
- Levi - Alex - Tristan - Jaiden - Julian - Phil

Colonia (2015)
Ally - My favorite part of this movie was the villain, and what made him even more evil is that he was a real person. The story is based on true events, a colony in the middle of nowhere in Chile during the Cold War started by a Nazi that had extreme control over all of his followers. He was also working with the government so he had a lot of political power as well. This place basically doubled as an interrogation/torture station for government prisoners. The story follows two people trying to escape, and all of that seems interesting enough to me. I thought the inclusion of a romance between fictional characters in a non-fiction setting was pointless and took away from the overall message of the movie. Also there was some useless exposition. I still think it was worth a watch on Netflix though, for the intense bits and a glimpse into a creepy and dark part of Chilean history. 5.5/10
