Rewatched "Wild Things." Great combination of Mexican soap opera drama and film noir. And a great cast.

Halloween Kills. Utterly terrible. Just kill him and the franchise for once and for all.

Just watched Top Gun: Maverick. Overblown, over the top, utterly ridiculous and absurd. I love it! As a bonus Jennifer Connelly is radiant in it. I’d love to disappoint her.

Exactly, you'd be disappointed if everything wasn't turned up to 11.

Jennifer Connelly is spectacular.

The Cooler.

Caught me off guard this one. Thought it was brilliant.

Watched Benediction, new film from Terence Davies, who I knew from Of Time and The City. This is interesting as being about a poet it has moments of poetry like that old Liverpool documentary.
Benediction is a true story about a poet, Siegfried Sassoon, who during the great war started to question the huge loss of life. He ended up in a hospital where he met Wfred Owen who lived in Birkenhead.
It's a really good film, set mostly post war, it deals a lot with homosexual relationships, male love triangles.
It's a good true drama film, perhaps a bit too long though.

I really liked this. Was good to see a Terence Davies film getting out there on plenty of screens, as his stuff usually gets fairly limited releases. I also thought Capaldi was very good in this, as I find him to be pretty much the same in most things, but here he really went for a sort of performance.

Saw Top Gun: Maverick. Ridiculously entertaining, and a benchmark for how to properly do a modern blockbuster. I loved how it was so unapologetic in its approach - it didn't mind referencing the original, and never tried to be hip or clever. The most fun film in a long time.

Yeah that good points, Of Time and The City, I only recall it being shown at the Philharmonic.

Watched The Batman last night.. enjoyed the dark detective angle it took vs rich kid with hi tech angle .. felt like a good serial killer hunt movie… not as much action but the slower pace didn’t lost my interest.
