  MORE JIM CARREY PLEASE

  everything that isn't Carrey is kinda boring but passable, while you wait for Carrey to get back on screen.

  Lost Ladies 2023

  ★★★ Watched 12 Oct 2024

  Think of the sweetest, cutest movie you've ever seen, and double the levels of sweet and cute - that's this movie.

  I wonder about the intrigue factor of a different culture: if this had been a Western movie I'm sure I would not have enjoyed it nearly as much. After all, romantic comedies are not usually my thing.

  The preaching also got a little annoying; sure, feminism is having a tough time in India, and perhaps it's an important message. I just don't watch movies to be preached at.

  The standout was Goel in the role Phool, very believable and charming.

  Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 16 Dec 2023

  This is a great movie for the detailed animation alone imo.

  I miss having Rocky as a more central character; we focus more on the mother, Ginger, and her daughter, Molly. Lots of relatable stuff here.

  The central villains and their Bond-esque hideout are incredible. It's like a mix of Bond movies and Mission Impossible, whereas the first film was riffing on The Great Escape.

  A good time all round.

  Worthy follow up to the first Chicken Run - will have to see how it holds up on rewatches.
