  Murder on the Orient Express 2017

  ★★ Watched 24 Mar 2018

  This remake seems more like a Kenneth Branagh vanity project than a film, capturing none of the suspense or dark humor of the original film. Once again, a strong ensemble cast wasted in thankless roles.

  Phantom Thread 2017

  ★★★★½ Watched 10 Feb 2018

  Another masterpiece by Paul Thomas Anderson. The film may seem rather slow paced, but that pace allows Anderson to craft a deliberate and deft study on the concept of control. Daniel Day-Lewis offers another tour-de-force, and newcomer Vicky Krieps proves her mettle in a difficult role acting opposite one of the greatest actors alive.
