  E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial 1982

  ★★★★ Watched 15 Mar 2025

  I knew something was off the first time I saw ET move and then learned I unfortunately purchased the much derided 20th anniversary DVD. But lovely movie! I can imagine this felt like the most important thing in the world for kids seeing it at the right age.

  Mickey 17 2025

  ★★½ Watched 14 Mar 2025

  Found it very interesting, but not very good. Would have like more focus on the multiples storyline. The creepers…..hated their whole vibe, but I did not enjoy seeing them in distress.

  Knives Out 2019

  ★★★★ Watched 24 Nov 2019

  An extremely fun and twisty movie that I will definitely be recommending. It had an amazing cast and a great sense of humor. The character work in the first half is a delight to watch, which leads to my Biggest complaint;  Once the story narrows down suspects and the secondary characters recede, the movie inevitably slows down. A movie with one amazing half and one very good half.

  Jojo Rabbit 2019

  ★★★★ Watched 17 Nov 2019

  Not an original opinion, but the tonal shifts in the movie were sometimes very jarring. Both the drama and the comedy were very well done, but more so the comedy. A major standout was the boy who played Jojo. He had a very difficult job carrying this movie, but he did it fantastically.
