  Trap 2024

  ★★ Watched 03 Nov 2024

  Good Hitchcockian premise from Shyamalan that goes completely off the rails in the second half. Directors, don’t cast your kids in lead roles unless they have acting talent.

  Rebel Ridge 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 03 Nov 2024

  Good little thriller, although a lot lighter on the action side than expected. The writers have probably read a Jack Reacher novel or two. Aaron Pierre can have Denzel’s job when he retires.

  Aladdin 2019

  ★★★½ Watched 09 Apr 2024

  Better than expected, but certainly bottom-half Guy Ritchie. Will Smith is, surprisingly, quite good. Biggest bummer is how tiny and fake everything looks.

  Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves 2023

  ★★★★½ Watched 01 Apr 2023

  Best popcorn movie in ages. Watched it with my kids (9&12), all three of us were transported for two hours. No previous knowledge of D&D required. Thoroughly recommended for everybody who like their movies fun and exciting instead of dark and gritty.
