Inception 2010
An obvious 5-star film I rated 4.5 previously because I saw it on a plane and backdated the review. Simply one of my favourite films ever.

The Brutalist 2024
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Adrien Brody is incredible, little more can be said about his performance through the film. Guy Pearce and Felicity Jones are strong supporting actors, as is…
