  Nickel Boys 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 05 Mar 2025

  A beautiful film all around. It took me a while to buy into POV style but I found it captivating as the film went on. You truly get a sense of how confined and demoralizing the situation the characters are in is and in the end a sense of resolution from their perspective.

  I like how the daughter acknowledges that everything her dad does or says is extremely weird but she just rolls with it anyway.

  Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings 2021

  ★★★½ Watched 15 Sep 2021

  I consider this one of Marvel’s better “origin stories” especially coming from the unnecessary miss that was “Black Widow”.  I felt that this had some of the best hand to hand action in a marvel film since “the winter solider.”

  Overall, the film made the transformation from a Valet Parking attendant to a mystical power wielding superhero pretty believable. So I’d call that a success.

   I didn’t even think the dragon felt out of place, although it was unexpected….
