  Life on Our Planet 2023

  I wanted to like this, but did not. Wafer thin characters, predictable and not very clever jokes that rely on cute and quirky character traits that didn't land for me, and a plot that resolves just because it does rather than anyone learning anything. Badly edited and scripted, and surprisingly poorly choreographed for a movie about a stunt woman. Completely overstays it's welcome for like 20 minutes of faff after resolving the plot, which relied on characters who are poor communicators to contrive tension rather than levelling any actual challenges. Great costumes though!
