  Avatar: The Way of Water 2022

  ★★★ Watched 26 Dec 2022

  Beautiful, absolutely stunning to look at - but the script is just not good and having the same plot points (also the most annoying ones - kids getting into trouble, yay) repeat over and over for over 3 hours just gets tiring.
  However, the amount of stunning cinematic moments earn the movie a lot of brownie points.

  The Whale 2022

  ★½ Watched 11 Dec 2022

  Brendan clearly has a lot more to say as an actor and I’m here for it - not sure I can say the same for the Whale as a movie.

  Murina 2021

  ★★★★ Watched 09 Jul 2022 3

  A film that shows how paradise on Earth can be a hell to live in. Beautifully shot, the locations are used to absolute perfection, and the pacing is great. You really become a member of this world and it’s the kind of engagement that Croatian movies almost always lack.
  Speaking of the film’s Croatianness, I have to say that it perfectly encapsulates the toxic mentality that surrounds Julija in the film and that made me want to leave my home…

  Mwah.

  Café?
  Oui.
  Race cars go vroom.
  That might be all of my French, but c’est magnifique, what a film.
