    The Menu

    β˜…β˜…β˜…Β½

    A glass of smoothie, apple slices with peanut butter spread evenly across each, and a cheese muffin at ready, I tuned to The Menu under much encouragement from my newfound fellow Letterboxders and my partner. Boy, they’re not wrong when they said I will have a few entertaining surprises out of this, because I didn’t expect much of absurd violence to be part of the meal. All I can say is the film is as mouth-watering as a ten dollar…

    Confession

    When swiping through movies on the in-flight screen, I saw that I watched many of Hollywood films of this year so I decided to go for a Japanese film with a lean runtime as it was a long red-eye flight back home from Tokyo, and I was deprived of sleep.

    One of the earlier shots depicts a flat layout of a dimly lit pokey bedroom, with a basic bedstead on the right side; on the left side a shelf full of what seems to be manga and art books, with colourful spines, and in the middle is that classic desk often occupied by a young protagonist sitting not exactly upright, causing her to be slightly imbalanced, slouching with a…

    Inside Out 2

    When Inside Out first came out, I wanted to be interested in it but I wasn’t sure how I felt about it. I soon forgot about the film and moved on, seeing it as Pixar losing its charm.

    Upon the release of Inside Out 2, I was still on the fence on whether or not I should see it. My initial thought was that it could be cringe-worthy with all those puberty references, like Red Panda. Then I saw the…
