    Kubo and the Two Strings

    ★★★★

    The feeling I get from stop-motion animation is really unlike any other feeling I can describe. While this movie felt like it comes to an end rather abruptly in the third act, just being able to see the level of expressiveness in Laika’s characters and the detail in the backgrounds makes this movie worth it.

  • A Quiet Place: Day One

    A Quiet Place: Day One

    ★★★

    While I’ve come to enjoy the Quiet Place premise, this prequel doesn’t seem to have much of meaningful forward momentum. The movie is serviceable, but not one I will think of as much as the first two.

    And what’s up with those mushrooms?

    Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

    ★★★½

    There certainly is no chance a movie could successfully follow up and usurp Fury Road, but there is grace to be found in trying.

    There is a lot more extraneous detail put into this movie which, while appreciated, ultimately serves as set dressing for a very simple revenge tale. I will still enjoy any amount of George Miller’s depictions of his little freaks and metal album covers, though.

    ★★★★

    Gargantuan-sized achievement putting compelling human characters in a Godzilla movie.
