  The Electric State 2025

  ★½ Watched 14 Mar 2025

  The Electric State feels like a dozen better movies all smushed together into an unoriginal, muddled mess.

  None of the emotional beats land, while the generic action is never exciting. Worst of all, the film doesn’t seem to know what it wants to say.

  Just truly forgettable.

  A film so bland and so expensive that the Netflix Board of Directors should be demanding some explanations.

  Warfare 2025

  Watched 13 Mar 2025

  Warfare is more of an experience than a story. Purposefully so - highlighting the futility of it all. It’s meant to show the brutality, not a mission.

  The intense sound mix and claustrophobic setting ground us in this firefight, without missing a brutal beat. 

  Tough watch.

  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness 2022

  ★★★ Watched 02 May 2022 14

  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness feels thrown together. Some of it works, some of it doesn’t, but it feels surprisingly bland. The story never connects emotionally, which makes it hard to care deeply.

  For a multiverse movie, this felt weirdly contained, and honestly a little forgettable.

  Elizabeth Olsen always shines as Wanda, and Cumberbatch has plenty to play with in these universes. There are flairs of Raimi’s style from time to time, and this is the closest we may…

  Black Panther: Wakanda Forever 2022

  ★★★★½ Watched 26 Oct 2022 8

  Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is blockbuster filmmaking on another level. It surpasses the incredible first film with high stakes and and thrilling world-building.

  The entire ensemble is phenomenal, but Tenoch Huerta bursts onto the scene with a brilliant, complex turn as Namor.

  The cinematography, score, visual effects - everything is even better than before. Some of the best crafts in any Marvel film. A breath of fresh air all around.

  It’s an emotional, dark journey, leading to a full-scale war, but always feels personal. This may be the best Marvel movie yet.
