Top Gun: Maverick (2022)
♥♥♥♥
War propaganda, but unfortunately in that regard, it's also a pretty good action movie. A brotherhood/siblinghood develops. Seems quite Star Wars inspired with that course they have to take, and the size of the target and the initial lack of faith in it being possible. And enemy turrets and fighters too.

DodgeBall: A True Underdog Story (2004)
♥♥♥
Decent fun. Lot of sexism, though, and the somewhat less creepy guy wins the woman he's creepy towards. And fat shaming too.

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)
♥♥♥♥♥
Wow! Much better than Into the Spider-verse! I'd rank No Way Home between them. If I had Honourable Mentions for films it would even make that list I think. I mean I don't think every scene is perfect, but emotional impact, story pacing (/engagement) and visuals are just awesome! It was so long ago I'd seen Homecoming I'd forgotten Aaron Davis his uncle was in there too.

Good story, well made! Apparently inspired by the Pakistani (British Raj) mystic Kuda Bux - fascinating!

Barbie (2023)
♥♥♥
Closer to 4 than 2. Would like to re-watch as I think I missed some clues, and some of the real world commentary! Surprisingly complex compared to what I (mostly) expected from the trailer, but that's not a bad thing. Great soundtrack!

Bullets Over Broadway (1994)
♥♥♥♥
Closer to 5 than 3. Helens agent Sid reminds me a little of Gomez Addams, though a lot less worshipping. Many funny scenes, generally speaking. I recommend not supporting Woody Allen's films financially. Search "Dylan Farrow".

The Curse of the Jade Scorpion (2001)
♥♥♥♥
Closer to 3 than 5. Well written, witty dialogue as usual, but also creepily written characters for women, and a rapey protagonist played by himself, willing to manipulate massively for a kiss and more....and the ending really doesn't change his intent I recommend not supporting Woody Allen's films financially. Search "Dylan Farrow".

Toy Story (1995)
Watched
Seen a long time ago, don't remember it enough to give it a rating, but I'm guessing 3-3½ based on it not becoming a strong favourite.

風立ちぬ (2013)
English title: The Wind Rises
♥♥♥♥
Beautiful film. Feels very strange that Jiro starts out as this big hero, but he leaves his ill, newly wed wife alone all that time focusing so much on work, and she seemingly doesn't care about her life which he just goes along with ( :/ ), not objecting to her staying with him, and smoking right in front of her instead of skipping that smoke in her company, when she won't let go of his hand. Get your priorities straight.
