  The Belko Experiment 2016

  ★★½ Watched 16 Oct 2024

  Really cool concept just poorly executed. The serious moments in this film and the more comedic ones do not blend at all. Having a line of executions with some weird Diegetic music over it just does not feel tonally right. Additionally the setting is really underutilised with guns being used primarily whereas it would've been a lot cooler to see office supplies as weapons.

  The Foreigner 2017

  ★★ Rewatched 29 Sep 2024

  I remember watching this film a few years ago and I really enjoyed it then. Unfortunately, watching it today made me realise some glaring issues with the pacing and the film as a whole. Jackie Chan's titular character "The Foreigner" provides 0 valuable additions to the story until the last 20 minutes with the rest of his presence being a few fight scenes. The film spends too much time focusing on the inner conflicts of this fictional version of the IRA and provides little room for Jackie Chan to have any meaningful presence within the film.

  The Incredibles 2004

  ★★★★½ Watched 30 Apr 2024

  So many modern Superhero subversions and not one comes close to The Incredibles. Such a fantastic story and execution.
