| 50 43% | Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2016) - Rated 02 Oct 2024
"At no point was I deeply engaged, but I did finish it without doing so for the sake of writing this review. At times the plot reminded me of a children's version of 'Doctor Sleep', where hungry monsters feed on magical kids. I was mildly entertained throughout. It's fine."

| 95 96% | Joker: Folie à Deux (2024) - Rated 26 Sep 2024
"The Harley Quinn origin story is to 'Joker' as 'The Dark Knight' was to 'Batman Begins'. Echoing 'The Umbrellas of Cherbourg' the musical approach serves to convey nothing but pain and desperation, as Arthur Fleck stands trial and the mask finally comes off. It's in the courtroom, we learn what terrifying concept this Joker can be. I have so much more to say, but please go experience it for yourself. Dark and devastating, 'Joker: Folie à Deux' is arguably the movie of the year for me."

"So I had to watch this for work, and it's not gre... OI! WIPE THAT GODDAMN SMILE OFF YOUR FACE! I REALLY HAD TO WATCH THIS FOR WORK YOU MOTHERF --- Transmission disrupted."

| 65 59% | Alien: Romulus (2024) - Rated 30 Aug 2024
"Easily the third best Alien movie made so far. These guys clearly understand what makes the Alien universe work, which is why it's so disappointing that they don't add anything to it."

| 75 72% | Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) - Rated 07 Aug 2024
"I suffer from superhero movie fatigue, find Reynold's brand of foul-mouthed humour hilariously refreshing and have wished that Levy and Co. would bring Logan back. The whole knowingly self-referential approach and reliance on collating intellectual properties is so refreshingly Deadpool. So not only did I enjoy this (it's a fine, but too emotional Deadpool movie, yet still a shining light in the MCU franchise), I also really love what it represents. Could this perhaps save blockbuster cinema?"

| 40 28% | 65 (2023) - Rated 18 Jun 2024
"During the first reading for this movie the cast got increasingly uncomfortable as at the end of each scene the producer would exclaim "A-a-and then they get attacked by CGI dinosaurs!"."

| 40 28% | Road House (2024) - Rated 24 Apr 2024
"One is an anomaly. Two is an unsettling mystery. What kind of drug was in play when someone convinced someone else that 'Road House' needed a remake? I don't need to watch either one again, but I'll take any YouTube deep dive into why this remake happened. No. It's not enough. This topic needs scientific funding."

"Grim."

| 0 0% | True Detective (2024) - Rated 26 Mar 2024
"Honestly ashamed to have watched this misandric piece of shit to the end."

| 60 53% | Dune: Part Two (2024) - Rated 29 Feb 2024
"Gets lost in in its own beautiful desert. It could be Herbert straying into Jihadi antics, but more likely it's Villeneuve who seems incapable of sticking a landing. Uneven, rushed and meh."
