  Mickey 17 2025

  ★★★ Watched 07 Mar 2025

  Mickey 17 has sharp satire and entertaining perfomances (especially Ruffalo’s Trump parody), but the film is clearly held back by its ties to the original novel. There are several side characters and minor plots that I found inconsequential to the main story and frankly uninteresting.

  The Brutalist 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 02 Mar 2025

  Felicity Jones deserves an Oscar for that absolutely unhinged handjob scene.

  Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny 2023

  ★★½ Watched 22 Apr 2024

  I simultaneously love and hate that they had the nerve make a time travel story after Crystal Skull was criticized for being too over the top. Also, CG-Indy looks very unsettling.

  X 2022

  ★★★★ Watched 02 Apr 2022

  A perfect mix of psychological art-house horror, porn, and slasher. 

  I’ve seen comments saying that the portrayal of the old couple (or their sexuality) is ageist, and whilst I see where they’re coming from, I have to disagree. There are genuinely tender moments between the two that were not portrayed as being ”disgusting”, at least based on the chosen music and camera angles. It made me feel something for the antagonists which is a feat in a horror film. 

  + Mia Goth is rather good
  + Fantastic use of ”(Don’t Fear) The Reaper”
