  A Cure for Wellness 2016

  ★★★ Watched 20 Mar 2025

  Creepy and slimy horror with some enjoyably strange sequences and a good cast (HTJI), but it drags at times and it’s way too long.

  The Day the Earth Stood Still 2008

  ★★½ Watched 20 Mar 2025

  They were on a hiding to nothing remaking one of the best sci-fi movies of all time but this isn’t as bad as I’d been led to believe. The main cast are all fine, the effects are decent and it has a couple of great set pieces.

  Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker 2019

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 19 Dec 2019
