    A Hero Never Dies

    ★★★½

    I don’t know if A Hero Never Dies was intended to be this funny but Johnnie To never lets us know his next move. Making me laugh at legless Lau Ching-wan crawling up stairs and them going to Thailand multiple times for no reason other than to shoot a fortune teller in the feet 😭 wtf

    I'm Still Here

    ★★★½

    Good stuff overall, with perhaps the most devastating end credits shot I’ve seen in a while. Not the masterpiece I’d hoped for, though. Dictatorships are bad (see: this movie) but mayyybe banning Brazilians from inflating Brazilian film ratings on Letterboxd and elsewhere wouldn’t be the worst idea.

    Justice for Pimpão.

  • Girls Will Be Girls

    Girls Will Be Girls

    ★★★½

    Most awkward thing I’ve seen in a while. Had fun cringing with my fellow audience members. The whole Teacher’s Day sequence though… Indian society/men never beating the allegations
