Run Lola Run (1998) - Rated 17 Nov 2024
Very interesting style and concept- a bit Arthouse punk with a flare of good action movie. Well acted, engaging, and with hints of humour similar to the delivery in the blues brothers. Recommend!

En enkel till Antibes (2011) - Rated 21 Oct 2024
Sweet, charming, funny- but also raw and honest. The main characters have good chemistry for their roles

Mission: Impossible - Fallout (2018) - Rated 21 Apr 2024
I argue this is the best mission impossible out of the 7.

Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation (2015) - Rated 21 Apr 2024
It's a mission impossible film- it's good, but it's not great.

Dune: Part Two (2024) - Rated 21 Apr 2024
I think once I've read the books I will likely appreciate this more- but in the mean time it's primarily achieving this rating because of it's fantastic cinema/soundtrack rather than story. Acting is good in some cases but not others, and a few characters have been given little screen time which makes them less significant than the avid reddit fans claim they should be.

Reminiscence (2021) - Rated 21 Apr 2024
Great acting, story is a bit meh. I like the concept of revisiting memories and how that could get someone into trouble- but I don't appreciate the lack of world/ character building that makes it hard to connect with the story.

The Red Tent (2014) - Rated 21 Apr 2024
A bit romance based, but an interesting re-tell of a sad footnote in the bible (relating to Dinah, the only daughter of Jacob and Leah who was referenced only once as opposed to her brothers who all had various journeys. That one reference was her 'rape'.) I like the re-telling from the perspective of a young woman taught stories and legends passed through her Mother's love and support of women in their tribe, who grows up to realise the consequences of both her own and others actions.
