| 70 65% | Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) - Rated 07 Nov 2024
"I don't know how to explain this: It's not really great, but it's definitely epic and worth a watch."
|
| 60 53% | The Substance (2024) - Rated 07 Nov 2024
"A modern day fairy tale that outstays its welcome by an hour. Spoilers: Part 'A Picture of Dorian Gray' with hints of Cronenberg's 'The Fly', it is frustrating that less would have been so much more."

| 70 65% | Megalopolis (2024) - Rated 23 Oct 2024
"While nowhere near as incoherent as rumored, I can see how it might shock those expecting a movie from Coppola coming off ‘The Godfather’. This is where he left things with ‘Twixt’. A meditation on modern America, cleverly framed through the prism of the Roman empire, ‘Megalopolis’ is an art-film from an inventive and visual filmmaker, and a clear message from a man too old to give a shit. Passionate, yes, inspiringly so, but subtle it ain’t."

| 30 13% | Nattevagten - Dæmoner går i arv (2023) - Rated 23 Oct 2024
"God awful from start to finish. The actors speak a certain kind of 'theatre' Danish, that you have to be a native to hate beyond words, and I am just that. Furthermore, as a Dane, imagine a movie where Paprika Steen is not the worst part of it. Anyway, whatever. Bornedal is a hack."

| 10 3% | Infinitum: Subject Unknown (2021) - Rated 23 Oct 2024
"An aimless, pointless, multiverse 'Groundhog Day'. I took a chance on this because the runtime was less than 90 minutes, and still ending up checking how much was left to endure, twice."

| 40 28% | Wolfs (2024) - Rated 20 Oct 2024
"The writing just isn't there and so the movie is as boring as this review."
|
| 35 20% | Ma (2019) - Rated 20 Oct 2024
"There is a story here, sure, but the writing and pacing is pedestrian."
|
| 50 43% | Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2016) - Rated 02 Oct 2024
"At no point was I deeply engaged, but I did finish it without doing so for the sake of writing this review. At times the plot reminded me of a children's version of 'Doctor Sleep', where hungry monsters feed on magical kids. I was mildly entertained throughout. It's fine."
|
| 95 96% | Joker: Folie à Deux (2024) - Rated 26 Sep 2024
"The Harley Quinn origin story is to 'Joker' as 'The Dark Knight' was to 'Batman Begins'. Echoing 'The Umbrellas of Cherbourg' the musical approach serves to convey nothing but pain and desperation, as Arthur Fleck stands trial and the mask finally comes off. It's in the courtroom, we learn what terrifying concept this Joker can be. I have so much more to say, but please go experience it for yourself. Dark and devastating, 'Joker: Folie à Deux' is arguably the movie of the year for me."

| 30 13% | Descendants: The Rise of Red (2024) - Rated 30 Aug 2024
"So I had to watch this for work, and it's not gre... OI! WIPE THAT GODDAMN SMILE OFF YOUR FACE! I REALLY HAD TO WATCH THIS FOR WORK YOU MOTHERF --- Transmission disrupted."
