Andor (2022) - Rated 22 May 2025
"It's Disney Staw Wars but it's actually really good. Much less woke than their other content. There is a gratuitious lesbian relationship but they haven't politicized it (yet). A cast of girlbosses that manage to be less annoying than the usual fare, if only slightly more believable. A woman behind every male hero and writers that tried a bit too hard to beat the Bechdel test but otherwise solid. Wokeness 3/10, Overall 9/10."
Police Story (1985) - Rated 17 May 2025
"One of Jackie's best."
The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2006) - Rated 21 Feb 2025
"Brilliant drama with no anachronistic social commentary. Could have benefitted from focusing either on the war of independence or the civil war, but not both. Cannot quite decide if it wants to be a period film or a biopic."
Emilia Perez (2024) - Rated 06 Feb 2025
"Lol. lmao, even"
The King (2019) - Rated 09 Jan 2025
"Surprisingly good, expected much less from a Netflix history drama. It is somewhere between an adaptation of Shakespeare's play and a history dramatization, but a somewhat faithful one at the latter. No woke nonsense. My only gripe is that Chalamet, good as he was, does not have the physique to sell the battle scenes."
The Penguin (2024) - Rated 20 Oct 2024
"Great performances, good cinematography, and a compelling story. The immersion-breaking feminist lecturing is kept slightly below the level expected in the year of our Lord current. Will deduct more points if it gets more obnoxious."
Joker: Folie à Deux (2024) - Rated 06 Oct 2024
"Sigh."
Spy Game (2001) - Rated 26 Sep 2024
"Very solid spy thriller. Good mix of action and suspense, Redford is fantastic."
The Recruit (2003) - Rated 25 Sep 2024
"Great first act, weaker second, slightly falls apart by the third due to an overreliance on 90s action movie tropes. Still entertaining."
Breach (2007) - Rated 22 Sep 2024
"Slow burning spy drama but without the action elements. Or foreign policy for that matter. Could have been very solid but the writers unfortunately turned the main antagonist into a caricature."
