  The Favourite 2018

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 16 Jan 2021

  Incredible how the director broke the mold of the typical historical drama and made something of his own.

  The Predator 2018

  ★★ Watched 12 Sep 2018

  For sure, Nolan's most ambitious work till now. Most complaints about this movie are based on Nolan's habit of over-explaining things but, truly, that didn't spoil the experience at all for me.
  The cast is great, the ships and all the technology involved in it (TARS and CASE included) are amazing and believable, the shots at space gives you that feeling of littleness as few movies did before.
  The third act, however, is a little problematic in my opinion. I think Nolan had a hard time trying to conciliate those crazy physics concepts with human feelings, but who wouldn't?
