    Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

    ★★★★½

    More (relatively good) decolonial discourse combined with great action sequences, but this time with a very welcome emotional maturity, sensitively exploring notions of grief and vengeance.

    I was close to tears a few times, which is a big thing to say for an MCU film.

    ★★★★½

    Killmonger is somewhat caricatured (presumably for sales purposes) but nonetheless this film manages to provoke important conversations about race and decoloniality through the medium of an MCU blockbuster, which is a pretty incredible achievement.

    Also noteworthy is the co-existence of multiple strong black women in the film who all have their own unique character, quality and type of strength.

    ★★

    incoherent, self-indulgent and horribly written but hey there's a cool dark aesthetic upside down smily face

    The Matrix Resurrections

    ★★★★

    Not great at being a sequel. Not great at being a film even.

    But an excellent piece of media all the same. If you can deal with it not being a sequel and not even really being a film, and you liked the Matrix trilogy for the philosophical exploration, then you should love this. Gets even better on the re-watch too.
