  Still an enthralling, tense, beautiful watch.

  CODA 2021

  ★★★½ Watched 10 Jan 2025

  Annoyingly predictable, but the direction, acting, and character make this a film more than the sum of its parts.

  Aliens 1986

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 22 Dec 2024

  Starts a bit slow but once they touch down on LV-426 it's just immaculate. Couple things I noticed on this rewatch is Apone has a cigar in his mouth the moment he wakes up from cryo-sleep, and I like the development of Hicks being the most afraid at the start to stepping up and becoming a badass from around the middle to the end. Cheering when the evil corpo guy dies is always great, I love Alien but this film is also peak. Would kill for a game adaptation of this with the same production quality as Isolation.

  In Bruges 2008

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 21 May 2024

  Ironically, I end up wanting to go see Bruges every time I watch this.
