Baffling as an adaptation. Surprisingly alright as a film on its own merits. Always here for Russel Crow commiting to an accent.
Weirdly might be in the better half of things to come out of Sony's Spidermanless Spiderverse? RIP to the SPUMM.

Conclave 2024
Oh to be one the Holy Father's turtles constantly running away from home...
An increible cast working with a phenomenal script, shot beautifully and accompied by a score that hasn't left my mind in the week since I first heard it. A stunning triumph of cinematic excellence.

Joker: Folie à Deux 2024
What do you get when you cross a curious movie goer with a sequel that has a lot of ideas and no idea how to execute on them?
You get this movie you may or may not deserve.

Gladiator 2000
In light of more recent encounters with Ridley Scott's attempts at historical epics this was unexpectedly refreshing.
I went into this rewatch seeking mostly to refresh my memory before the release of the sequel and catch the highlights of some memorable performances. Instead I found myself utterly engrossed in the story and captivated anew by the delivery of lines I've had memorized for years.
It was a delight to find that Gladiator continues to live up to its public reputation and my personal memories.
