Grave of the Fireflies 1988
This flick hits you right in the feels, no lie. Set in wartime Japan, it follows these siblings trying to survive after their home gets bombed to bits. And let me tell you, it's a gut-wrencher. The animation? Stunning. Studio Ghibli never disappoints. But here's the deal, it's heavy, like really heavy. You're gonna need a box of tissues handy. Plus, the pacing feels a bit slow at times, but honestly, it adds to the emotional weight. So, yeah, it's not your typical popcorn flick, but it's worth the watch. Solid 4 out of 5 stars from me.

Aftersun 2022
It's more about capturing fleeting moments and the weird space between a parent and child. So if you're looking for an action-packed thrill ride, this ain't it. But if you're down for a character-driven coming-of-age story that'll make you feel all the feels, then "Aftersun" deserves a spot on your watchlist. Just don't go in expecting a laugh riot – it's more like a thoughtful cry sesh with your BFF.
Overall, "Aftersun" gets a 4 out of 5 stars from this critic. It's beautiful, raw, and totally unique, but be prepared for a slow burn and a heavy dose of feels.

A cinematic jigsaw puzzle that challenges your brain while serving up a buffet of visual delights. A few moments might leave you scratching your head, but hey, it's the multiverse – confusion is part of the charm.

Now You See Me 2013
The sleight of hand and clever twists keep you hooked, but the smoke and mirrors might leave you questioning if it's all a bit too slick for its own good. Abracadabra meets déjà vu, but entertaining nonetheless.
