My rating: ★★★★★★★☆☆☆ 7/10 Okuno masterfully spins an incredibly watchable suspense despite having a familiar script. Solidly delivered all around.

Fall

My rating: ★★★★★★★☆☆☆ 7/10 I admit enjoying it. However, I would again urge the academy to ensure Plotholes Supervisors are paid a decent wage so that they don't quiet quit like this.

Three Thousand Years Of Longing

Image
My rating: ★★★★★★★★☆☆ 8/10 Refreshingly beautiful, uniquely enchanting. Swinton and Elba intimately shine in a much needed magical escape from the brutal onslaught of high school cinematic universes.

My rating: ★★★★★★★☆☆☆ 7/10 Ford keeps it tightly in focus, delivering a strong social commentary amidst the drama while Plaza shines in a no nonsense, captivating thriller.

My rating: ★★★★★★☆☆☆☆ 6/10 Yet another Black American soldier returns home from killing brown people for white America to find he's still Black, still not wanted, still not worth the scam he signed up for. Rinse and repeat.

My rating: ★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ 3/10 Rambling mediocrities served by hotshots to their eagerly awaiting fanbase never go wrong, now do they?
