  The Brutalist 2024

  ★★★ Watched 12 Jan 2025

  Beautiful first half. Fun to have an intermission. A mess of a second half. An utterly bizarre and out of place epilogue

  Dune: Part Two 2024

  ★★★★½ Watched 25 Feb 2024

  A completely absorbing theater experience. It’s why the theater will never go away. I was briefly pulled out of the film when I said “Haha oh man that’s Austin Butler” but we overcome that. 

  Some films in a series operate as detached chapters from one another. I appreciate how Dune II delivers on the promise of Dune I while maintaining continuity in tone, visual, and sound.
