Holland 2025

★★★ Watched 31 Mar 2025

I really like the last half an hour of this, but it's lacking in the tension and bite that Fresh had, and the pacing is very uneven. A slow beginning becomes a predictable end.
The Alto Knights 2025

★★½ Watched 27 Mar 2025

Not sure the choice to make this part narrative film, part fake documentary really works, and we could have done with an equally accomplished actor playing Vito to pit De Niro against someone.

Muppets Haunted Mansion 2021

★★★★½ Watched 01 Oct 2021

I adored this. A family friendly, fun, spooky Halloween special that embraces the season and references the Haunted Mansion ride a lot. The celebrity cameos are all exceptionally good.
Willy's Wonderland 2021

★★★½ Watched 11 Feb 2021

I didn't know seeing Nic Cage kill an animatronic gorilla with a plunger was on my bucket list, but after it unfolded before my eyes I can confidently say it was.
