Here’s what I’ve been watching recently, the good and the bad

  • Dangerous Animals — 7/10. Pretty good. A few too many “Will she finally escape?!” moments.
  • 40 Acres — 9/10. Intriguing survival flick. Slow burn, tasteful draw on your attention.
  • Thunderbolts — 7/10. Fine. Weak offering, obnoxious accents, lame villains.
  • Bring Her Back — 8/10. Good film, but kinda nauseating. Don’t watch with dinner.
  • Alma and the Wolf — 3/10. Terrible, do not watch.
  • Fight or Flight — 8/10. Bullet train vibes with less interesting characters. Lots of action, surprisingly gory
  • Final Destination Bloodlines — 8/10. Well done, got what I expected.
  • The Surfer — 7/10. Bizarre and a touch slow. Worth a watch.
  • Friendship — 5/10. Disappointing. I’ve enjoy Tim Robinson’s other work, but this didn’t land.
  • Sinners — 9.5/10. Great film. Amazing performances and production, though a few confusing scenes.
  • Mountainhead — 6/10. Kinda boring. Relevant satire, good cast, but… slow and aimless.
  • Riff Raff — 4/10. Meh, don’t bother.
  • The Surrender — 6.5/10. Cool concept, cast was alright. Was just fine.
  • Locked — 7/10. Quite liked this despite the narrow premise. Skarsgard made it work, Hopkins was fine.
  • A Nice Indian Boy — 9/10. A delightful film. Corny, predictable, and heartwarming.
