I really, really wanted to like this more, as it's clear that this was a labor of love. This movie is definitely looney, but as a feature-length film, it is bloated. There are a few chuckles that hit for me, but they're outnumbered by other gags that felt a little bit out of place or grated on me. There's a surprising amount of innuendo in this (Seeing Porky eat and slobber on the love interest's feet was wilddd). The plotline…

Ne Zha 2 2025
It's a decently well-polished spectacle of Chinese mythology structured like a Dragonball Z/Shonen anime. The plot is relatively shallow, but it serves as solid vehicle for the fight scenes. The writing is very exposition-heavy, though as a newcomer to Chinese mythology, the hand-holding was welcome. It allowed me to (barely) keep up with what's happening as the film weaved through its extravagantly ridiculous plotline at a decently fast clip.
The scale and execution, particularly for the (many, many) fight scenes, are grand. Despite the long runtime, I found myself repeatedly surprised and delighted. I can see why China is going crazy for this movie.

Toy Story 1995
It's a legendary animation classic that still holds up today. As the first full-CG film ever made, the animation has definitely aged, but the brilliant writing and story remain timeless.

Though I don't remember a time before this film's existence, since it's almost as old as I am, I don't…

Mickey 17 2025
Overall this was a very entertaining movie, but it felt bloated and unfocused. This movie seems to be trying to say too many different things at once while neglecting to go in-depth about any of its themes. Some of the performances were a bit too hammy and some dialogue was overwritten, which hindered the meaningfulness of the delivery of some of the film's messages. At its core, I loved watching Mickey and his iterations, so I wished the movie kept its focus on him and the thought experiment around cloning. Even still, this was an eccentrically fun watch.
