    Conclave

    ★★★½

    Another bodied John Lithgow role where he’s the lowkey sly/mischievous guy.

    Mickey 17

    ★★★

    An unserious mess that has several good moments, Mickey 17 is, at the very least, another original work from Bong Joon-Ho. Perhaps I’m biased because Robert Pattinson (the Batman) carried most of the movie, with some help from Toni Collette. I’ll always tune in to see Pattinson on the big screen.

    Mickey 17 is plagued with constant expositions which disrupt the pacing of the film. Also, Mark Ruffalo whatever that was please don’t do it again.

    It sucks that Mickey 17 was postponed so many times and bombed at the box office.
