  Carry-On 2024

  ★★★ Watched 22 Mar 2025

The narrative around robots replacing humans in the workplace does feel fairly pertinent too. Don't go in expecting anything near Ex Machina level sci fi and you'll find a pretty predictable but enjoyable Friday night flick!

  ★★★ Watched 26 Oct 2024

  An interesting concept and a new take on the old post-apocalyptic/ last few survivors style set-up (this one's set after the Rapture). The gore is nice and fleshy, the wordless script a neat idea and Samara Weaving kicks arse. It didn't quite pull me in like I'd want it too though so it felt a little underwhelming in the end... worth another watch sometime.
