Massive Talent - I loved it!
Barbarian
Sadly it does not stick the landing but everything up to that point is great. Love how it plays with the fact that the audience already expects Bill Skarsgård to be creepy.
Went into this one mostly blind and the unexpected transition was definitely A Moment lol.
The latest Dungeons and Dragons film. I’ve never played the game and know nothing of the lore but found it to be pretty enjoyable.
Last I saw was Tàr in the cinemas when it came out. I liked it, not a lot, but I liked it and defended it against my partner who didn’t think much of it.
But I haven’t had a film fade away in my mind as much as this, where I went from liking it, to kind of forgetting it and eventually criticising it, just passively as my mind mulled over the film.
When it came time for the Oscars I accurately predicted it wasn’t going to win anything because I suspected I wasn’t alone in this feeling … that others would eventually feel like maybe it was just technically good and not actually about much.
28 weeks later. Was recommend by Disney plus in the what to watch tonight section and I just went with it.
Overall it was an OK movie. A bit too constructed maybe. Would watch it again in a year or so.
The first one (28 days later) is significantly better than the sequel you watched
