Last movie I watched was "Kinds of Kindness". A weird one that actually left me mouth open and in shock after the first fable. It made up of 3 Fables related only by the meaning and the same actors playing in all 3 of them.

For me it's an 8-9. I've seen better weird and worse weird.

Black Bag (2025) - A spy couple discovers a plot within the agency to set them up as fall guys for a theft and a nuclear terrorist attack.

Apart from the fact that I'll happily watch anything with Michael Fassbender in it; Cate Blanchett is the lead actress, AND it's directed by Steven Soderbegh. It's a brilliantly written film with strong pacing and I really enjoyed it.

I watched Matilda last night and it is one of my favorite movies. It’s one I rewatch often and find comforting. I give it five stars

Last movie I saw was the count of Monte Cristo. I’d read the book a few years earlier, but the movie was pretty amazing too. Lots of emotional depth to it, and you don’t need to have read the book to enjoy the movie. Definitely recommend!

Just finished the movie puppy love. Was definitely a cute and entertaining watch. I’d rate it a solid 8.

I just recently saw "The Martian" for the first time and absolutely loved it! I read the book last summer. and that was fantastic, so I've been meaning to watch the movie but I was so worried that the movie may ruin the book for me. It did not! The movie matches the book in a way that few movie adaptations can boast.

I just watched G20 on my laptop a few days ago. I'd give it a 6/ 10 rating because well..it was great but I just felt like a little more could have been done because you know it's Voila Davis!

I watched Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith with my friend yesterday. I would give it a 7 out of 10. The story and fight scenes were well done, it's just that the story is a tragedy, and I don't like tragedies in film. (Novel and video game tragedies sometimes leave me with something to think about, but film tragedies just...are letdowns.)

At least I can empathize with Anakin screaming Nooooooo at the end. I felt sorry for the random blue jedi lady who got randomly killed on the leaf planet and I liked Yoda fighting Palapatine at the end.

The last movie I just finished seeing this night is "G-20". It's a recent movie that just came out this 2025. If you enjoy government and military/agency conspiracy movies, then you'd certainly enjoy this movie. I'd rate it 4 out of 5 stars.

I watched Ju-on: The Grudge last night with my friends. I remember watching this way back in like middle school and freaking out with my brother. Turns out, it's not as scary surrounded by people munching on chips. Just as memorable though! Really good plot, amazing direction, and the audio is just phenomenal. I definitely recommend any of the Ju-on movies for anyone wanting to get into J-horror!

I watched Final Destination: Bloodlines because of nostalgia and also to prove to myself that I'm old enough not to be scared by the franchise anymore, but I ended up regretting everything. I realised no matter how many years pass, some things don't change, and one of them is my fear of this franchise. Objectively speaking, I think it's a great movie for anyone who loves watching horror with a lot of gore in it. Took me so long to realise it's just not my cup of tea.
