  Cry Macho 2021

  ★★★ Watched 19 Mar 2025

  Clint Eastwood makes and stars in great films, he has an insight that is usually honed into something wonderful, but not this time. It isn’t the worst film you’ve ever seen, but Eastwoods presence is super awkward for this movie. It’s almost cringey at parts and the dialogue is ultimately unbelievable. Is it entertaining… sure. But man is it weird and uncomfortable

  A Haunting in Venice 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 17 Mar 2025

  A spookier take on the classic Poirot character. Lots of twist and turns in this mystery surrounding an all star cast. There is also a certain charm that Branagh brings to the table, opening the character up to a deeper exploration

  The Menu 2022

  ★★★★★ Watched 06 Jan 2023

  It’s hard to discuss this film without spoiling anything, other than saying, it is wild. Rest assured that every moment, as soon as you believe you’ve predicted what happens next, you are likely wrong. Every new scene, every character interaction and dynamic are such pleasant surprises, that you are constantly enthralled. It’s awkward and unsettling, moody and brilliantly tense. Outstanding performances by the leads and how Ralph Fiennes is able to pull off the emotion in this character is beyond me. Great success in an incredible experience

  Human Resources 2021

  ★★½ Watched 22 Jan 2023 1

  Knowing that this film was made by a 19 year old makes it actually quite impressive, in spite of the short comings throughout. The menace and mystery never fully comes together or explained properly, but it is still an enjoyable watch.
