    I'm Not a Robot

    ★★★

    1. I strongly disapprove of (children’s?) choir covers of Radiohead songs.
    2. Dutch with random English thrown in is such an unserious language.
    3. I thought the opening was strong (and very relatable), but the ending was predictable and trite.

    Overall, a fun short that would be an average Black Mirror episode.

    Demolition Man

    ★★★

    A fun cheesy action movie with a surprisingly compelling satire of a fascist dystopia. Sandra Bullock’s straight woman acting was perfect for this movie, as was Wesley Snipes’s totally unhinged performance.

    The King and I

    This movie has poor writing, bad animation, and somehow is even more racist than the original musical, but I think it loops back around to laughably ridiculous.

    ★★★★

    Surprisingly really really good. Very campy and amazing special effects for the car. The headlight visuals were also very cool.

    Saw this in a theater with an audience that was eager to provide a laugh track on a scratchy film reel that felt like it probably dated back to the original theatrical run, which all added to the fun vibes of this movie.
