  Mickey 17 2025

  ★★★★ Watched 07 Mar 2025

  Bong Joon Ho is back, and this time he’s cloning around with Mickey 17, a sci-fi comedy that’s as fun and funny as it is chaotic (in the best way). What could have been a mess turns into something surprisingly funny, heartfelt, and crazy entertaining, thanks to some good writing, a great concept, and stellar performances.

  Robert Pattinson is unrecognizable as Mickey (how the heck does he go from Batman to this?!). The way he shifts his voice, mannerisms, and…

  Companion 2025

  ★★★★ Watched 06 Mar 2025

  Loved it!!

  Starts off like your typical “meet the friends at a secluded cabin” flick, but then it flips the script harder than a malfunctioning AI.

The haunting reality of the characters’ experiences is powerful, but the way it’s constructed feels messy and all over the place.

  I did appreciate the unique first-person perspective. It worked in some parts but overall, it felt more like a hindrance…

  Gladiator II 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 22 Nov 2024

  Let's be honest, none of us wanted a sequel to Gladiator, and I certainly didn’t anticipate it to match the original’s brilliance. However, it pleasantly surprised me—in the best possible way. While it’s not flawless, Gladiator 2 manages to capture the heart, thrill, and epic moments that made the original so captivating, making it a worthy continuation of the story.

  My biggest complaint with the film is its initial struggle. The first 30-40 minutes were rough. After an intense opening…
