  The Man from U.N.C.L.E. 2015

  ★★★½ Watched 16 Mar 2025

  Highly stylish Guy Richie in 60s mood actually works well. Ten years on this film seems to have aged well bar the one obvious lead actor. Pacing in an issue and could have been trimmed to a lean 90 minutes would have really benefited it but set pieces and action really enjoyable especially when it's presented really uniquely at times

  Alien: Romulus 2024

  ★★★ Watched 21 Aug 2024

  Entertaining but very hallow. First act was great, really good world building. It just suddenly and drastically falls into total schlock, like watching someone play an alien game rather than a film.
  The whole thing just became really messy trying to shoehorn as much references to every other film in the series, which felt like they were more interference from a panel of executives or some algorithm rather than just a simple stand alone story it looked like the director…

  The Long Kiss Goodnight 1996

  ★★★½ Watched 24 Mar 2024

  An enjoyable 90s action thriller with all the tropes. As the action gets more outlandish(and boy does it) so do the lighthearted nods to audience which conceals a deeply cynical critique of US politics
