  Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 01 Feb 2025

  It’s deliciously deranged denouement taken to one side (what a magnificently audacious choice), I felt the lack of a clean, kinetic through line keenly. Great set pieces as you would expect but an ungainly running time and needless lore made this feel turgid at times. But again: that finale nearly redeemed it. Bold if flawed.

  Highlander 1986

  ★★★ Rewatched 18 Mar 2021

  There’s not much not already said about Christopher Lambert’s Scottish accent (he didn’t even speak English before being cast) or Sean Connery’s Egyptian one (he got a million dollars for a weeks work). The real star is Clancy Brown’s Kurgan, delightfully chewing every piece of scenery (and priest’s hand) in sight.

  Bad Boys for Life 2020

  ★★½ Watched 07 Jun 2020

  What an odd fucking movie. Genuine laugh out loud moments but bizarrely paced action and bloated character beats. Too long by half but charisma of the leads counts for a lot.
