    Howl's Moving Castle

    ★★★★

    Gorgeous and fun film. A bit convoluted towards the (kind of abrupt) end.
    Turnip head is the best character and I would die for him.

    Alita: Battle Angel

    ★★★

    A fun adventure film with fantastic lore and an interesting cyberpunk-esque motive.

    Too bad they failed to bring a truly satisfying ending and decided to leave so much of the much more interesting lore on the wayside.
    I would be interested in a sequel that finishes up the story, but since it's been five years since the first one... I am assuming that won't happen.
    It's not bad, but had much more potential than what we got.

    The way this film, as well as the two sequels, portrays love is stunning. While seemingly not much happens, the authentic-feeling moments kept me hooked through the impeccable writing and delivery by Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke. Do yourself a favour and watch the sequel after a while to give yourself the necessary time to process and fully appreciate this story.
