Nosferatu 2024
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
I did quite like it. The cinematography is undeniably its strongest aspect (and the colour grading), and was somewhat reminiscent of the previous versions, which I thought was nice. However, I did not see the significance of the additions made to the story (except Nosferatu's appearance), because they did not seem to add anything new to the themes. So it was entertaining in its own right, but nothing quite extraordinary. Jacob Anderson said in one of his interviews that an adaptation must justify its existence, and I think this one sort of failed at that.

Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust 2000
The second half was quite good! What this film overall lacks in plot and character design, it makes up for with the setting change towards the end. I wish we had seen more of the Castle of Chaythe, and Meier and Charlotte.

Gladiator II 2024
just rewatch the first part. exact same structure, scenes, and themes with no further exploration and no value to add. purely hinged on nostalgia; truly a shame that they do not utilise Lucilla's character better. Quinn, Washington, Pascal, Hechinger, and Nielsen are the only good parts of the film - even the Colosseum fights are incomplete and lacklustre. what a waste.
