  The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers 2002

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 21 Mar 2024

  I'll say it again:

  You really haven't seen Lord of the Rings until you watch it on VHS, on your resting day, while travelling New Zealand, in a hostel with a view of Mount Doom.

  The tape of The Two Towers was in a significantly worse state though.

  In the Land of Saints and Sinners 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 21 Mar 2025

  There once was a man from Donegal.
  His killing became rather chronical.
  Done with all that.
  He found a home for his cat.
  And finally had to pay his toll.

  More westerns set in Ireland please!

  Creed III 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 04 Mar 2023

  While not presenting an alternative to masculine heroic purpose, Creed III offers a nice amendment to the concept. The fight is still central to the film, but it makes being a good father and connecting to a hurt friend more important than winning the fight.
