  Barbie 2023

  ★★★★½ Watched 20 Jul 2023

  When I first heard about this movie, I didn’t think much of it. I’ll admit, I was cynical towards the idea and thought it just looked like a studio trying to use a big brand to make some money. But as soon as the trailers started coming out, it won me over and I became much more excited to see this film. And sure enough, it was just as energetic and fun as the advertising made it seem.

  The Banshees of Inisherin 2022

  ★★★★½ Watched 26 Jan 2023

  I had no clue what to expect from this film, I didn’t know a single thing about it before watching besides that it stars Colin Farrell and was nominated for best picture, other than those two very vague bits of information, this was a blind viewing.

  ★★★★½ Watched 26 Jul 2023

  Christopher Nolan is one of the most acclaimed directors working today, I was looking forward to this film just because of his name being attached, and as soon as the first trailer came out it immediately sold me. I went into this movie very excited, with it being one of my most anticipated for the rest of the year, and it lived up to my expectations. For a movie that takes up so much time just showing people talking with…

  Prey 2022

  ★★★★ Watched 05 Aug 2022

  This was a really good direction to take this franchise that felt fresh while still delivering on all of the imagery you want to see in a Predator movie. As a thriller, it is excellent at building tension, it gets right into the action at the beginning of the film and doesn't let up until the movie ends. What makes the Predator franchise feel distinct among this genre is that they aren't so much about run for your life, but…
