    Only Yesterday

    ★★★★

    I'm still a few years too early to relate exactly, but man does this one hit home. In three years, I'll see if fifth grade me wants to take a train trip

  • Despicable Me 4

    Despicable Me 4

    ★★½

    Things I did not expect from this movie:
    - A drifting montage
    - Witness protection subplot (Gru is a narc fr)
    - Weirdly good, almost video game animation
    - A Fantastic Four/Incredibles subplot
    - Oddly realistic depictions of urban and old-money suburban neighborhoods
    - A "honey badger don't care" reference
    - A heist subplot (funny enough)
    - Challengers subplot??
    - Electrocuting the disabled while a Frenchman/supervillain steals your child (almost another Incredibles subplot)
    - "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" cover
    - Vector flossing

    This movie felt longer than 94 minutes.

    ★★★★½

    To die with honor is to live forever; to live in fear is no life at all.

    Deftly weaving the threads of honor and life together, The Green Knight creates a double narrative whose strands, once symbolically bound, are impossible to untangle. The misty and mystic forests of Ireland provide an eerie backdrop for the subtly supernatural tale that Dev Patel's Gawain charges, then stumbles, then strides through. Told in a series of short chapters, the film explores Gawain's lust…

    Despicable Me 3

    ★★

    In a word, it's bad.

    Everyone is a caricature instead of a character, both in their behavior and their appearance. I'm not saying the original was groundbreaking or hyper realistic, but at least Gru didn't feel like a random cliche generator.
