  Gladiator II 2024

  ★★ Watched 01 Dec 2024

  What a buncha bullshit. The second time this year a sequel to a beloved movie opts to recreate beats and scenes from its predecessor rather than create something new and actually add to the story. Inferior in every way to the original.

  Interview with the Vampire 1994

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 04 May 2024

  Thirty minutes in, I did not think I would end up loving this movie as much as I did. But when Kirsten Dunst comes in, things just all fall into place.

  It's melodramatic as hell, but every so often they play it completely straight (but still very gay), and that interchange is the recipe for camp perfection. Super fun and wholly unique.

  The Beekeeper 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 06 Jan 2024

  Excellent. 4/5 bees. My only problem was they only used the phrase "protect the hive" four times and it wasn't nearly enough.
