  ★★★★ Watched 22 Mar 2025

  Solid, tight spy mystery. A classy, mature film. This felt like just a nice movie-going experience for adults. Awesome cast from top to bottom. Performances were great. Beautifully shot. Soderberg is a master and prolific. Between this and Presence, I like his pairing with Koepp (though I felt some parts of Presence were a little over-written). Highly recommend.

  A fantastic horror cocktail. Creative concept. A lot of awesome practical effects that felt like an ode to the era they were portraying. Good camp. Highly recommend for the horror fans out there.

  The Fall Guy 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 12 Jun 2024

  ALL HAIL STUNT TEAMS!! Solid movie overall. Funny. It had a lot more heart than I expected. The cast from top to bottom is fantastic. There were a few characters and moments that I thought could have been setup better or pay off a bit better. Nothing egregious though. 

  2024 is going to be a great year for summer blockbusters!
