  Very well made, very engaging.
  But I question its timings; why this story and why now

  Conclave 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 08 Jan 2025

  Was sceptical of 2 hours about the pope, but was actually fab. So well shot and executed. 

  Minus half star as could have been shorter

  Mamma Mia! 2008

  ★★ Added 2

  Well there’s two hours I’m never getting back.

  Controversial, I know - but this is one of the worst movies I’ve ever had the misfortune of watching. I love ABBA, but clearly the directors didn’t, otherwise they wouldn’t have butchered such international classics.

  A poor film.

  Despicable Me 4 2024

  A fab ENDING (please just let it die) 

  This was probably my favourite of the four, but just like the others it just lacks something. I feel this film built for a long time, hit an iceberg and sunk in 5 minutes. There was no major ending.

  The super minions, despite being the entire pivot of the marketing, were useless. 

  It’s run its course now, please leave this franchise with the little dignity it has left.
