Luther: The Fallen Sun (2023)

♥♥

-1 for the awful writing where people are shortsighted, egotistical idiots cooperating to ridiculous disagrees, willing to die and commit murder. Honestly it's silly.

Beautiful location towards the end!

TV series was pretty good, though.

Great film! Nice soundtrack!

Primal Fear (1996)

♥♥♥♥

Nice soundtrack! Feels noir-like!
Good acting by Norton!

Curiously both Maura Tierney and Laura Linney have been Jim Carrey's wives in different movies.

I don't know if there's supposed to be a pessimistic morale that it's naive to believe in the good of people, that we shouldn't believe even in such circumstances. If what it wants to add is nuance and doubt I can understand that. To be both optimism and pessimism can equally go too far in that regard. Don't assume innocence, but also don't assume guilt. At least outside the context of violent crime cases, I *think* a positive assumption is significantly more in line with reality.

The Notebook (2004)

♥♥♥

pretty torn between 3 and 4. It was a quite nice watch, but also some things were just off, one being the acting from most of them.

story is not original but it's kinda well told. It's engaging. good chemistry.
decent music, fine cinematography


super creepy way to introduce himself!! 
...and it's sad to see him wanting to be whatever she wants
...and bad friends that let noah get out on the date with her without her knowing

i like that he later stops when she's so uncertain and overwhelmed, though

plot-wise I don't see why she didn't write him once, or come visit?! 

noah's supportive of the marriage and okay with being friends or at least trying <3

don't think the older noah seems much like the younger in terms of mannerisms/behaviour.

dementia is such a scary disease! :o

Babylon 5: The Gathering (1993)

♥♥♥

Pilot: 4 (4 as a TV series episode, as my expectations for those are lower - 3 if it was a movie). 
Part of the reason is probably also that I had very low expectations based off the reviews.
That commander is quite the creep, and worse than Riker!
Good riddance to commander sinclair!

My favourite character in the pilot was Lieutenant Commander Laurel Takashima - and then she's replaced in the main
series. :/

I Lost My Body (2019)

♥♥♥♥

Quite unique in some ways, effectively gave me a sense of isolation and alienation from the rest of the world. And a sad story too. Pretty creepy approach with that woman though.

Really worth a 3½ rating. Freddie's a piece of shit.

Two rape scenes just casually thrown in with the humiliation.... WTF
Besides that mediocre music, and an okay story.


All movies by Clint Eastwood

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)

♥♥♥

Closer to 2 than 4.

Kinda seems like bad writing to me, but part of it might be from cut scenes.

Someone who can enslave the multiverse seems kinda big for doctor strange and the sorcerer supreme alone.
The avengers mostly deal with threats to the earth i think, so even too big for just them? Maybe ask Jean Gray instead?

The book being destroyed should set her free, then, if that was what was corrupting her. But that doesn't fit the plot, so it doesn't happen

The Sorcerer Supreme should let anyone die to protect the multiverse. also why is he so consistenly weak in this movie, in terms of the fights he's in? doing him dirty.

Great to see Charles Xavier again, and the x-men universe tied into this one.

How does strange know that that particular childhood memory was shared between those universes?
touching ending though

All that said, this video really points out a critical general weakness, likely intentional, of the MCU as a whole:

The French Dispatch (2021)

♥♥♥

Beautiful visually, lighthearted, good music - storyline seems a bit too disjointed, but admittedly part of it was just me having difficulty keeping up. Would like to rewatch at some point.

Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)

♥♥♥♥

Closer to 3 than 5.

Nice to see the old Spider-man crews! <3 Have yet to see Amazing Spider-man, though, so that part wasn't nostalgic for me (yet).

Love Benedict Cumberbatch as Steven Strange actually, and I often don't think his performances are particularly great, but this character he fits/performs very well!

Certainly a ton of fan service, it's pretty cool, but maybe a bit over the top. Or perhaps mainly because the main storyline often seems not that well written. But the redemption arc idea itself I love!

Love the credits animation!

Eternals (2021)

♥♥♥

Kinda annoyed that Ikaris was consistently shown to not be particularly strong, certainly less so than Thena and Gilgamesh, and all of a sudden plot demands he's "the strongest of them" and so he is.

Is this a prequel to FFX, Sprite changing name to Tidus? Would fit the FF universe at least!
