  A Real Pain 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 15 Mar 2025

  Enjoyed this a fair bit more than I thought I would. I thought I had Keiran Culkin fatigue but he was refreshingly unlike Roman Roy. I liked that there wasn't some big emotional breakthrough where everyone's problems were solved.

  Network 1976

  ★★★½ Watched 12 Mar 2025

  Some of the best writing and acting I've ever seen and it still just doesn't grip me. Maybe it's because I watched it while tired on an airplane or maybe it's because the actual plot isn't too much more than a series of very well acted monologues.

  Paddington in Peru 2024

  ★★½ Watched 11 Nov 2024 1

  Even after going in with tempered expectations this was a let down. A lot of the good stuff is still there and I really enjoyed the parts in London at the start and the end of the movie but for so much of the middle it is just extremely uninteresting. I was so desperate for it to start wrapping up at the end.

  Nearly earned a half star with that mid credits scene but not quite.
