84/100. It's a classic for a reason, with all of the formulas and tropes you would expect from a movie like this (because it created them!). Super nostalgic vibes the entire time; I am a sucker for when a small town rallies behind its high school sports team. I would absolutely run through a brick wall for Gene Hackman in this movie, but I can't shake the feeling that Dale Norman was absolutely bailed out by Jimmy Chitwood.

Black Bag 2025
91/100. This movie was about as good as it could possibly be, and that’s a very good thing. So much fun, with crazy twists and turns all throughout. Honestly, best part about this movie is how tight it is at 90 minutes. There is never a wasted moment, and as contemporary movies balloon into becoming longer and longer, this was just so refreshing.

35/100. Wait, you're telling me this is supposed to be up for best picture? This is one of the worst movies I have seen in a long time. Unintentional comedy is all over the place and, frankly, insulting to its viewers. I had to hold my girlfriend's eyes open like it was "A Clockwork Orange" in order to get her to continue watching the movie. Horrendous.

Raya and the Last Dragon 2021
64/100. Was a little let down by this one after it was hyped to the moon. I know it was for kids but it's just a little too... clichéd? Fantastic animation and voice performances throughout, and definitely got me emotionally a few times, but it was so rushed you never really got to fall in love with any of the characters other than Raya. Moving on.
