  Babylon 2022

  ★★★ Watched 23 Feb 2025

  The stars are for the scenes on set only. Way too long and still can’t get on with Chazelle’s self importance in the film world.

  Days of Heaven 1978

  ★★★★ Watched 11 Jan 2015

  Beautiful, tragic and dangerous. A great film which doesn't rely on oversharing with dialogue to carry the story forward. Stunning imagery unrelenting industrial shots keep you tense and in the moment.

  Whiplash 2014

  ★★★½ Watched 07 Jan 2015

  Loved J K Simmons, loved Miles Teller. Thoroughly enjoyed Whiplash for what it was. Parts were slightly awkward and expected something different after the absurd amount of hype surrounding it. However, they doesn't take away from the fact it was really entertaining in a 'Pitch Perfect' kind of way.
