  It Chapter Two 2019

  ★★★ Watched 21 Sep 2019

  Bill Hader saying "What the fuck!" the movie.

  Joking aside.

  (+) The chemistry between the adult version of the Losers Club
  (+) Pennywise has much more to do - and brings the scares
  (+) Amazing finale battle and sequences of events.
  (-) The film is too long. The second act could be shortened or even cut out completely.
  (-) Weird subplot involving Henry Bowers.
  (-) Some of the CGI monsters looked a bit subpar.

  Knives Out 2019

  ★★★ Watched 07 Sep 2019

  Here are my quick thoughts:
  (+) Strong ensemble cast - loved the performances by Daniel Craig and Jamie Lee Curtis
  (+/-) There is a lot of humor, which I found to be inconsistent in its execution.
  (+/-) The plot is a bit muddled with a lot being thrown at you at once. With that being said, there are a few twists and turns that took me by surprise.

  The ending will leave audience members divided. Not sure how to feel about it yet.

  Black Mirror: Bandersnatch 2018

  ★★★½ Watched 11 Jul 2019

  I am currently sick with a cold, so I have been in bed all day. I have never watched a Black Mirror episode before, but I figured I would try out Bandersnatch first since it is interactive.

  (+) Fionn Whitehead with a strong performance. Hopefully, this gig will land him more roles down the line because he was great in Dunkirk.
  (+) Will Poulter and that one scene in the apartment was unreal
  (+) A lot of my choices actually…
