Almost gave this great film 3 stars because damn is it slow, like way too slow. I read somewhere that this film is like reward-bait and it tags you along through long drawn out suspense to make the eventual destination and end more satisfying. I totally believe this is the aim of the film and it is does it well and a film aficionado might well appreicate that but as a casual fan it was a real turn off, almost literally. I persevered and feel rewarded but that first 50 or so minutes were painful.

Nowhere to Run 1993
Truly awful. Proper TV film vibes. Not only is this film incredibly dull but the script is so wildly bad at times. The few lines the little girl gets were genuinely creepy.

If These Walls Could Sing 2022
I liked this but it is ultimately just alot of artists etc saying "hey we made some great music here, it's a nice place". The actual history of the studio is rarely talked about. It's also very Beatles heavy.
Could of done with a whole lot more stories about those behind the scenes.

Planet of the Apes 1968
Unfortunately by virtue of living on planet earth these last 35 years I knew the twist before I even pressed play. Still it was enjoyable regardless, just jealous of those that got to see this without knowing the ending...though I susepct many would of figured it out long before the final minutes.
