  The Lego Movie 2014

  ★★★★ Rewatched 01 Mar 2024

  My kids have now watched this 3 times in as many weeks. There's something about this that truly captures the manic, creative possibility of lego that my children (and I) really adore. Now more non-stop asking for lego sets. You win, lego!

  Dune 2021

  ★★★★ Rewatched 01 Mar 2024

  Visuals, set design, score - all great. There's just something missing from this sci-fi epic that I should, on paper, absolutely love but only really like.

  Killers of the Flower Moon 2023

  ★★★★½ Watched 21 Jan 2024

  So well made - from the score, to the cinematography, performances, etc. Scorcese is still the best there is and is still taking big, interesting swings. Still thinking a lot about this one and the relationship at the center.

  The Holdovers 2023

  ★★★★½ Watched 30 Dec 2023

  A fun, smart little movie about grumpy people who get a little less grumpy as they get to know why they're all so grumpy. Giamatti is our generation's Richard Dreyfus.
