  A Real Pain 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 27 Feb 2025

  Let's be honest Kieran Culkin pretty much plays himself, or the same quirky weirdo who's kind of a douche, but ultimately very likeable and charming.... Roman Roy in Succession.

  Therefore, going into this I didn't really think it would be a performance that's deserving of an Oscar, given the similarities to his other performances.

  (Then again Adrian Brody is probably getting another Oscar this year for The Brutalist (2024) which I thought was more or less the same as his…

  Conclave 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 26 Feb 2025

  Really in the mood to replay Assassin's Creed Brotherhood!

  Whilst I did find it slow in a couple of places, there were so many standout performances like Robert Duvall's extremely over the top character, who sort…

  My 1000th Film on Letterboxd!!!

  You know I had to go full film snob mode and see this on opening day and in 70mm, the way Nolan intended! and boy way it worth it!

  I already can't wait to see it a second time. For a film that's 3 hours long it flew by, but I feel like I can't give it a proper in-depth review until I give it another watch, as I was just too blown away from…
