    Heretic

    ★★★½

    Fascinating, thought-provoking dialogue wrapped inside a suspenseful, albeit implausible, cat & mouse horror tale. I enjoyed the originality,  three knockout performances, but am resisting the urge to overthink the logistics.

    Listening to the film’s soundtrack on vinyl inspired a rewatch. This film is such a part of the entertainment zeitgeist that there’s not much left unsaid, so my thoughts are not fresh, but I still marvel at the fight choreography- scenes of such over-the-top violence presented almost as dance-offs. I’m still holding out for a third film.

    Charming, quirky, emotionally-satisfying, with a delightful French wit.

    This is the sequel I didn’t know I needed. Such a lovely, charming continuation of a heartfelt, hilarious franchise. The film offers plenty of nods to its predecessors, but in fresh, clever ways vs. retreads. At the core is a story of hope after loss; something we all could use more of.
