    Assault on Precinct 13

    ★★★★

    Not really a remake, it just takes the premise and then becomes its own thing which actually is better for it.
    A stacked cast give this a polish and helps to keep things interesting without falling into too many generic tropes.
    Fishburne is always a good watch and Hawke does action really well.
    The kind of movie that would be easily rewatched.

    'I'm doing it again aren't I, Sir? Jumping to conclusions. '

    What a joyously brilliant film, a near perfect comedy whodunnit that is a self referential love letter to Agatha Christie that was to die for.
    A note perfect cast delivering deliciously witty dialogue within a story that, as a mystery, hit all its beats cleverly winding up back at the start. It felt like it was made by Wes Anderson's British cousin, balancing the quirkiness with the humour.
    Saoirse Ronan is hilarious as the over enthusiastic rookie, though there isn't a bad performance in this.
    It's so much fun, played perfectly.

    The Batman

    ★★★★★

    Dark, broody, rain soaked neo noir that follows a crime mystery involving corruption, the criminal underworld, vengeance and the struggle to find your purpose. Oh, and it's a comic book movie.
    The Batman is everything the grown up me wanted it to be.
    Filmed in shadows with the stench of villainy all over it, this didn't need the zany fantastical parts of comic book movies.
    It almost felt black and white - with splashes of red - like the films…
