Split

I was somewhat exasperated at times by this film, but it was better than The Happening. Very low bar I know.

I mean, it totally makes no sense, but I suppose it kept me watching for the whole film...

Interesting, and certainly creepy in parts, but didn't quite work.

Slaughterhouse Rulez

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

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

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power: 1x02 Adrift

It's an improvement over the first episode but nothing special. Lot of manufactured conflict and characters disagreeing with one another just to have arguments and "drama"

Star Trek: 3x19 Requiem for Methuselah

Sigh. Yet another episode where Kirk falls in love. Another episode where a female character isn't a character at all but merely a bit of motivation for Kirk

Who knows what this is all about. I mean, I know the plot (such as it is) but really? what is this even!

Murder at the Cottage: The Search for Justice for Sophie: 1x01 Episode 1

So far it's way overly sensationalised. Will watch one more episode to see

The Hitcher

Totally preposterous, but for what it is it's well done.

Hmmm. This has not aged well. I remember really enjoying this beck in the day.

The Dead Room

Didn't quite pull off the atmosphere it needed but still watchable

Star Trek: Discovery: 2x01 Brother

I don't know, I feel I'm bouncing off Discovery a little, hopefully it is just the first episode of a new season and I'll get into it more as it goes along.

The Girl on the Train

Around halfway through this started to get interesting. Emily Blunt is excellent, but the story felt far too disjointed to work. Also way too much voice-over, I know it was adapted from a book but interior monologues very rarely work in film.

Touch of Evil

Supposedly this is a classic, and part of the "canon" of great films. I dunno, seems all over the place and badly directed/written to me. But maybe that's because I can conceive of Mexicans as people not criminals. Also Brownface much!

The Pale Blue Eye

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

Gangster Squad

This was not a good film but it was bad in a vaguely entertaining fashion.
Hammy and full of cliche

What is the point in this film... I just don't get it.

Next Goal Wins

the first half of this film almost madee turn it off, but it pulled it slightly together in the end. it showed heart, not enough to make up for the bad writing and lack of characterisation in the first half. but enough to save it from being a god awful film

Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood

So half of this film was starting to get vaguely interesting. But the Sharon Tate storyline should have been dropped and the final scenes made me dislike it intensely.

I get the feeling that Tarantino enjoys making films about Badguys cause then he feels justified about the level of relish and delight he brings to violence. I think it is utterly unwarranted.

Even if the characters are Nazis it isn't about who the actions are being done to, it is about the characters waging the violence with such glee. So glad I didn't go see this in the cinema.

Also Brad Pitt got an Oscar for this! What a joke.

The Crow: City of Angels

So I've heard that this film got butchered by the studio and boy does it ever show. this film makes no sense. Unless all you want to look at is atmospheric fog, brights lights, dark shadows and goth/bdsm aesthetic. I mean, it is a look I guess... but it isn't really an actual film.

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

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.

Marvel's The Punisher: 2x10 The Dark Hearts of Men

This episode annoyed me so much. If you shoot, stab and beat down your hero he does NOT get to stand up and destroy his opponents 2 mins later at least, not unless you are watching a cartoon.

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

Star Trek: 2x09 Metamorphosis

I'm sorry, male and female are universal constructs... I guess at least Kirk tried talking this time instead of only violence, even if that was his first impulse
