    ★★★

    It's just fine. I didn't expect Alisha Weir to stand out so much against such a stacked cast. I'd attribute this to the writing, which seems unable to effectively juggle the full cast and properly utilise their talents. Despite the cheesy and predictable set up, the film's second half offers nonstop action and some decent plot twists that make it quite entertaining. The titular character is a delight to watch and — if you're into this sort of thing — there's a generous amount of gore. Even though I came away from Abigail feeling a bit underwhelmed, I was entertained.

    It's still astonishing to me how Gadd managed to channel such a profoundly traumatic experience into this audacious, unconventional piece of autofiction. Baby Reindeer brilliantly recounts a genuinely harrowing ordeal, bolstered by the riveting performances. While it didn't quite resonate with me on every level, I can't deny my investment in the narrative.

    I initially thought there was some form of prejudice behind the bad reviews... No. This movie is just soulless. Between the robotic script, the confusing cinematography, the weak rapport among the main characters and the melodramatic pacing, this is a slow-burn dumpster fire. Over a runtime of nearly two hours, we're fed the origin story of a group of characters who never manage to connect to the audience. They're stereotyped to comic extents without ever managing to be relatable or…

    This movie is SO fun, and for someone who knew nothing about the history of the game, this was a really interesting history lesson — accurate or otherwise. Taron Egerton can honestly do no wrong, and the rest of the cast delivers as well. The plot, pacing, and cinematography are all stellar... What's not to like about Tetris?
