The Dark Knight

I still really love this film, but the whole Harvey Dent storyline makes absolutely no sense.

Sixteen Candles

Wow, how was this ever thought to be okay, with the racism, and the period jokes, and oh yeah the date rape is cool storyline

Aquaman

This was not a good film.

Not good at all.

It Chapter Two

Didn't like this at all. Felt bored through most of it. Nothing scary apart from the odd jump moment. Plot was so predictable and dull.

Joker

My overwhelming reaction to this film is, man was it boring.

Full of its own importance yet saying nothing.

Primal Fear

So I think the title is a bit misleading, makes you think it'll have more of an unsettling atmosphere.
Also I have an issue with the ending, not that it's bad, but it does perpetuate the stereotype that mental health issues are merely fake excuses that let criminals get away scott free, and even trained experts can be fooled.

Slaughterhouse Rulez

Underwhelming.
cast were all good but film itself was the embodiment of meh

Rocky IV

Oh Rocky IV, the worst of the Rocky films in some ways. But also the most Rocky in others. Also, the film that is pretty much all montage. I mean, how many montages can one film take? Rocky IV certainly pushes the envelope there.

It is a bad film. I don’t think I could argue otherwise.

But, then again, Rocky. So I gotta love it, at least a little.

Nine to Five

So I had no idea this had such a bizarre, but awesome plot

The Vast of Night

Really enjoyed this film. Its certainly different from most films, loved the long dialogue heavy scenes and the slow growing atmosphere.

Centurion

On rewatch I think I feel pretty much the same about this film as I did originally, it isn't going to win many awards but it damn entertaining. With much violence.

Also, I'd like somebody to make a film from the point of view of the picts/celts/germanics/whomevers that the Romans invaded without any rooting for the imperialistic colonial empire.

Vampire in Brooklyn

this film didn't know whether it wanted to be a comedy or a horror, and so was neither.
but i didnt hate it, so I guess it wasn't terrible

Heat

First rewatch in a long time, and I really don't think it's as good as I remember. Everything is well done, looks and sounds great. But all a bit full of its own importance and men being menly.

De Niro gives a great performance, but Pacino is a tad too GREAT ASS! To work for me

The Tomorrow War

Oh my God this is a terrible terrible excuse for a film.
Okay in a predictable way till the final third and then it descended into the worst film of the year
I mean none of it made any logical sense but I wasn't really expecting any logic, but this was just plain infuriating and awful

Adaptation.

First two thirds of this film were fantastic, but let down by the final third unfortunately.

The Duel

It tries, but never really succeeds. Also the plot with the wife just never made much sense

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (Extended)

A great film, no matter how many times I've seen it, still great

John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum

I don't know why I bothered as I haven't enjoyed any of the other wickian adventures.

Cold Pursuit

This is a terrible terrible film. Was it supposed to be funny? Because that's the impression I got from the way it listed the dead. It did not make me laugh, not once.

It was mean spirited, I didn't care about any of the so-called characters, and it was boring. One to miss I think.

The Northman

Everything was well done. But the story was just not for me, felt that id already seen the vengeance story in other guises, and would have liked a different take.

But then again it delivers what the trailer promised so I shouldnt complain.

Cast a Dark Shadow

Really enjoyed this one. Great script, and good acting. Kept engaged in the story, though Lockwood playing Freda was particularly good.

Brightburn

This was okay, but I was hoping for something a little more psychological or at least that explored what it might have been like rather than the straight forward horror this was

Black Panther

Love this. Probably my favourite of the Marvel 'verse. I

RIP Chadwick Boseman

Demolition Man

One of my all time favourite films, but for the first time ever I've just seen the Pizza Hut version. So weird.

Bloodshot

It's fine. I wasn't sure at first, the opening is a bit "hmmmm" but then the story takes a turn which made that much more interesting. Could have been a LOT better, but then again, it could have been an awful lot worse too.

American Made

It is an interesting film, but it never quite works. I mean are we supposed to empathise with Cruise's character? Cause he is a bad dude, no questions. He may not be shooting people but he taking money from murderers and facilitating the expansion of their business. I don't think that aspect was ever really explored, the consequences of the business he was in.

The Martha Mitchell Effect

interesting, I'd never heard of Martha Mitchell before. this is almost too short though, I'd like to know more.

The Pale Blue Eye

plodding and dull unfortunately. just didn't work at all for me.

Scarface

It certainly had a message to impart, but I prefer this to the glorification in other, later mob movies

Army of the Dead

Very obvious. You won't be surprised by anything that happens in this film, but it's enjoyable enough
Some of the characters are so idiotic that they don't make sense, but what else would you expect from this film.
It is what it is, way too long and nonsensical but enjoyable enough while you're watching it. Especially if you switch off your brain.
