Wonder Woman (2017)
♥♥♥
Closer to 4 than 2. Happy to see a super hero film with a woman front and center and women in prominent supporting roles as well! <3 Also like to see characters that are both very strong and at the same time human beings with feelings, and not either or. I think it could be written better, however. Liked the start on the island but it declined after that, and got kinda over the top and unoriginal towards the end. Beautiful end credits!

Nice, touching film! I like a lot of sports films actually, even though I don't really follow sports and don't even know the rules of baseball in this case which is a bit confusing at times watching this. I like the philosophy and the struggle especially the mental one. In this movie I live the idea of new systems making old ones obsolete, which I think is true for ideas in general, and which I also hope happens in terms of making a better, more just world in the future. Their system was an improvement - as specifically talked about - precisely because it looked at raw data without prejudice - looking past age, habits, peculiar ways of playing etc. Same could be the case with getting towards a more equal society where gender and race is not involved in deciding who gets the job, the ultimate result being that the people best suited for the jobs have them regardless and not excluded by discrimination. Also I got the message that believing in someone can actually affects whether they will succeed or not, which I think is quite fascinating, and speaks to our nature as social beings, flowering with support and solidarity. By the way - totally off on a tangent here - despite it being exactly basing the decision off gender, I think quotas for women - and other groups - when hiring might be a good idea, for at least two reasons: There's more than one qualified person for many of these jobs, including qualified women and secondly because I think it will basically hasten the path to equality where such tools are no longer necessary. I think it would force us towards more equality, and once the equality was there the bias to favour men would disappear, also because the ones making the decision wouldn't be mostly men.

Liked Benedict Cumberbatch more here than in Sherlock, still, doesn't seem like a particularly skilled actor judging from these two.

I feel the documentary wasn't that well made so I think it should've either been cut differently (with some new content), or be shortened. It was interesting to learn about her life!

Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)
English title: Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi
♥♥♥♥
Actually liked it quite a lot, way more so than Rogue One, and maybe slightly below or on par with VII? My Star Wars rankings from top to bottom would probably be: IV: A New Hope V: The Empire Strikes Back VI: Return of the Jedi VII: The Force Awakens VIII: The Last Jedi (might be equal to VII, need to rewatch to figure that out) I: Phantom Menace = III: Revenge of the Sith II: Attack of the Clones Rogue One

Iron Man (2008)
♥♥♥
Really rather sad portrayal of manhood, objectifying and practically owning women and other people as his subjects, and displaying the military as cool, and the weapons industry so positively. Also seems to play on anti-arab racist stereotypes and nationalism. And for food we harm other animals of course! And Hugh Hefner is also portrayed positively. Iron Man ignores a woman's no as well. In some ways it seems these things are portrayed a bit negatively, as if he's an immature asshole in the beginning, supporting the weapons industry and at the end it seems he may begin to be able to have a proper relationship seeing the other part as his equal, and at least having a somewhat more skeptical view on the weapons industry (as having profit over ethics, not much criticism of US military in itself) - but I've heard that in later films he continues to be an asshole, so I'm not really sure. That violent egotist main villain should not be allowed to live.

Nice movie, both feminist and anarcho syndicalist-ish. Workers unite against parasitic bosses abusing their power.

♥♥♥
When I watched the trailer long ago I really didn't expect a very good movie, but I was positively surprised actually. Sad that sexist and racist language is apparently supposed to be edgy/cool though - it's quite widespread in this film.

♥♥♥
I thought it was much better as a child, but still a decent re-watch. Quite tough subject matter, even possibly advocating gathering the courage to commit suicide as a solution. But maybe it's just symbolism for something else.

Okja (2017)
♥♥♥
A strange mixture of being serious and comedy-like. For some reason I didn't develop that much empathy for that fictional species, as I would have had it been fx. cows. But I hope my reaction in this regard is an exception to the norm, as we humans are so strongly in need of empathy, or if not that letting empathy (non-selfishness) direct our actions to a much greater extent.

Very good film! Certainly closer to 5 than 3. On point dialogue, it's clear it's based on a play.
