  Companion 2025

  ★★★★★ Watched 01 Feb 2025

  First great movie of 2025. Wildly original film blending sci-fi, romance and horror perfectly together. Hard to say who this movie is exactly for but I will say that you will walk out saying I’ve never seen anything like this before, even though it does have hints of other films like Scream and Terminator 2. It also feature a star making performance from Sophie Thatcher and cements her as great talent to keep an eye out for. Jack Quaid was…

  Presence 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 26 Jan 2025

  Be patient and give it a chance, it is worth it! Gimmick and all. It was a slow burn and I thought about halfway through that Steven Soderbergh had let me down but of course I was wrong. Once you get to the end, it all makes sense and it recontextualizes the movie, allowing the film to get better on a rewatch. Don’t expect a horror film, it’s more of a indie family drama with horror elements. David Lowery take notes! This is how you make “A Ghost Story”.

  Wolf Man 2025

  ★★★ Watched 18 Jan 2025 2

  Leigh Whannell’s take on this classic Universal Monster was interesting, but needed more Wolf Man in the movie. Fun time though. Can’t wait to see which monster gets the treatment next. Generational trauma am I right?

  Den of Thieves 2: Pantera 2025

  ★★★★★ Watched 12 Jan 2025

  This movie is so good it validates the first film, which was essentially a 99 cent “Heat” rip-off. Slow burn as it sets up two thrilling action sequences but worth the wait! Seems like Christian Gudegast continues to borrow from Michael Mann’s work as this one feels like his version of Miami Vice while mixing in Fast Five for franchise building. A banger. Give me 5 of these!
