Morbeus - 4/10 - Hundreds wouldve lined up to polish the turd of a script for free but no. It's like they just don't give a sht anymore.

Yeah if these studios start hiring some comic book fans, who'd likely work for free, then they'd easily up their ratings

Dual (2022) 6.5/10
Deadpan satire with an interesting concept. The ending has me in knots...I think it's meant to be ambiguous and all the options feel right. Karen Gillan is very good here. Enjoyed it.

Faults (2014) 8/10
Same director as Dual, similar tone but more black comedy. Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Leland Orser (Berlin Station) are great as a cult member and the dude trying to de-program her. Has a Coen brothers feel at times.

I'm looking forward to seeing both those movies. I remember watching the Art of Self-Defense 7.7/10 a few years ago by the same director. As black comedys go it was original and funny, definitely worth watching.

The Art of Self-Defense (2019) - IMDb

The Art of Self-Defense: Directed by Riley Stearns. With Jesse Eisenberg, Alessandro Nivola, Imogen Poots, Steve Terada. After being attacked on the street, a young man enlists at a local dojo, led by a charismatic and mysterious sensei, in an effort to learn how to defend himself from future...

Yeah, I'd say Art of Self-Defence is in-between the other 2.

So the dude's getting worse

Everything Everywhere All At Once : 8/10
It had some pacing issues early on, but makes up for it later. Douglas Adams would definitely have loved it.

Memory 5/10 - So the T800...sorry Liam Neeson doing what he does best.

Uncharted - Why?/10

Started this. Made it maybe 25 minutes. Just couldn't get into it, spent more time on my phone due to boredom than I did watching the screen.

Is this a movie?

In the Bedroom (2001) 7/10

Slow paced drama with many well crafted performances & lots of emotion. Some unexpected direction changes but well worth it.

The Northman 8/10
Really enjoyed this. Viking metal

Top Gun Maverick

9.5/10

I did not see this coming! Excellent movie. Much better than the first. Gonna watch it a second time on the big screen, before I eventually grab it in 4k for home!

Nah man! I do not do cams. Would need to be a very, very special movie before I would consider a Cam.

My bad...that highlighted part got lost in translation...(kak English...)

So what you actually meant to say:

"I Watched Top Gun Maverick on the big screen....bla bla...and will be watching it on the big screen again".

Yep, definitely going to be watching it a second time on the big screen then wait for it to come out in 4k and keep a copy of it at home on my media server. It was that good.
