  Princess Mononoke 1997

  ★★★★½ Watched 26 Mar 2025

  Watched in IMAX. Absolutely stunning score and animation. Really appreciated the environmentalist themes.

  Oddly, the listing said it was English subs but it turned out to be dubs. Billy Bob Thornton was a weird choice and definitely the worst casting. But otherwise, great cast.

  As an aside, I love that we are getting the opportunities to see older movies in IMAX and local theatres.

  Badlands 1973

  ★★★½ Watched 23 Mar 2025

  Beautifully shot and acted. Sheen is flat out terrifying. However, I didn't quite by the end when all the officers seemed to be taken by Kit's charm - there just wasn't enough time spent to warrant those reactions. Also, Holly must have also been pretty messed up to just go along with the killings with little reactions - surprised she got off on bail.

  I'm glad the movie was as short as it was because it would have felt like it was dragging at any longer.

  In any case, solid movie.
