  The Peanut Butter Falcon 2019

  ★★★★ Watched 18 Mar 2025

  I absolutely adored this charming and wholesome indie film that charismatically humanizes those who are othered. Packed with light-hearted but potent messaging about the right to be free and at the end of the day: not to be a total dickhead.

  Very good and another Barantini tour de force. Not as happy with the third episode as the majority are, as I wish they fleshed out Jamie’s character a bit more and I’m not sure his motives are entirely well-rounded (I still think the kid is a star). The final episode is by far the best and portrays the consequences magnificently. Oh, and fuck anyone who’s calling this boring because it didn’t have a plot twist at the end where Jamie was actually framed due to some large government conspiracy.

  Gladiator II 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 15 Nov 2024

  Holy shit. This was absolutely fucking epic. One of the spectacles of the year. Did it need to be made? Absolutely not. Do I care? Absolutely not. It’s expectedly grand, a sensory overload and just genuinely a total pleasure to endure. Each individual performance is undoubtedly fantastic, but Denzel’s theatrics do it for me. I had concerns for the outcome of this, but Ridley knows it, he shows it, this is pure entertainment. Just enjoy it. 5/5
