  Sonic the Hedgehog 3 2024

  ★★½ Watched 05 Jan 2025

  First, introduce a new character as a villain, then have them chase a mcguffin, have the good guys find it and the bad guys take it from them, then have the newly introduced character switch sides to save the day, and with all that you’ve got yourself: Sonic 2! No wait, this was sonic 3… 

  Was a new plot line really too much to ask for?

  
  Despite its narrative shortcomings, the movie is still relatively fun. The robotnik’s duo meta jokes made me chuckle a little.

  If you enjoyed the previous two, chances are you’ll be able to find some fun in this one too.

  The Holdovers 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 17 Dec 2024

  A surprisingly touching movie that serves as a brilliant study of the human condition.

  Despite their shortcomings, the main characters end up being quite endearing. 

  Not your average Christmas movie but a very pleasant watch!

  Sisters and Neighbors! 2024

  ★★★ Watched 24 Jul 2024

  Je n’ai malheureusement pas eu la chance de voir la version comédie musicale sur scène et ça fait près de 10 ans que je n’ai pas lu la pièce originale. 
  Cela dit, je m’en souvient assez pour savoir que certains ajouts faits pour le film nuisent à l’œuvre plutôt que d’y ajouter. Notamment, nous faire passer beaucoup de temps avec le personnage de Pierrette avant qu’elle arrive chez sa sœur affaibli grandement l’impact de son entrée, et n’ajoute pas grand…
