  ★★★★ Watched 31 Jan 2025

  Getting a good movie in January studio dump month? Nice. Getting a good movie on your January birthday?  Cosmically awesome.

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 03 Jan 2025

  A stunner of a 30th anniversary restoration in IMAX. The last twenty minutes remains a masterclass in just about every technique in filmmaking.
