    The Aeronauts

    ★★½

    Got this recommendation from a friend. Watched the reel summery. Not gonna lie... What I saw in the summery was probably the most exciting parts of the film.

    Also, the production totally needed to hire an expert on frostbite and hypoxia because what we saw in the film was just NOT POSSIBLE.

    Anyways, it was an easy watch. I dont regret it, but I dont think ill remember it beyond tomorrow.

  • Last Holiday

    Last Holiday

    ★★★

    This was a solid value movie! 

    Predictable, cute, fun, kinda stupid and extremely nostalgic with the flip phones and CRT monitors. 

    Queen Latifah nails her character and closes off the movie with a wink toward god. How good

    You know what… I feel like I would not even be against watching this movie again

    Not too long. Not too short. But maximum fun!

    Phone Booth (2002) mixed with OG die hard movies but modernised. It was a great home watch 

    That said. I very much don’t think it was an accurate depiction of what 2024 airport security personal is like. Let’s be honest, TSA is way more aggressive and less happy. Not a single time did I see anyone yell “Take of your shoes!”

    Will watch again

    This was so much fun! Image a modern version Rush Hour mixed with Mad Max and add a bunch of Alita type of CGI and a side hint of WWE all packaged up into a 1.5hr film.
    Like, come on, who would NOT want to watch this type of movie!

    Over the past decade or so I have seen a handful of USA and China based collaborative films and honestly... I am totally here for it!

    Would watch again.
