Hit Man 2023
Weak 3.5/5. I can now see how people were fooled when Clark Kent hid Superman by putting on glasses.
Essentially a series of Glen Powell character studies. Cosplaying job leads to cosplaying sex leads to, I hoped, Dungeons & Dragons.
Pretty confident the plot would crumble under scrutiny. Enjoyable once.
Edit: I was thinking about this rating, and the fact that the movie subverted my expectations is another reason why it's a 3 or 3.5 and not lower.

This movie is bonkers and hilarious. It is filled to the brim with one-liners of all shapes and sizes including the extremely "edgy/anything is funny" jokes from Jennifer and a one or two side characters.
"What's up vagisil?"
"Nice hardware ace"

"She's just hovering, it's not that impressive."It's probably too packed with references but the movie doesn't take itself seriously so you shouldn't either. Megan Fox wearing the Evil Dead shirt was *chefs kiss*.
Jennifer's Body is more of a dark comedy/horror satire than The Substance. Strong 3.5/5.

If your kid is famous and you're the one giving interviews, then you fucked up.

Joker 2019
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
I'm struggling with a rating for this one. Joaquin Phoenix is obviously an excellent actor. That is clear. Strangely, what is also clear is how much an actor needs to give to being "the Joker" -- no matter which iteration you're considering. Think about it: Jack Nicholson, Mark Hammil, Heath Ledger, Jared Leto...all of these folks, besides voice actor Hammil, can be seen as emotionally fringe at minimum some of the time. These folks invest a lot into their characters.…
