The Syndicate

Hard to Kill. 2/10. Witness Steven Seagal in his prime. (Don't do that.)

Turning Red. 7/10. This is very thirteen-year-old girl. Not exactly my speed, but it does this well and it's interesting enough. It also takes place in an environment I'm familiar with; I even used to work in a Daisy Mart as a teenager.

CODA. 10/10. Technically speaking, this is a predictable movie and does not seek to entice with twists. However, the beats are hit perfectly, the cinematography is fantastic, and the casting is excellent.

Encanto. 6/10. Far too much singing, and to be honest, I found the family in this movie to be obnoxious. I wouldn't have bothered trying to protect them were I in the same position.

Dog Pound. 9/10. An intense and real look into the juvenile corrections system. This movie makes no attempt at offering a silver lining or a happy ending. It is raw and real throughout. I would not say it's for the faint of heart.

Deep Impact. 8/10. I've never actually seen this movie. It was pretty decent, though I do think the Elijah side plot could have been done without. It took up time for no actual reason and I feel it was only included because Mini Frodo was technically necessary for the introducing scene.

Moonfall. 6.5/10. This is a very good theatre movie. As just a movie, it is passable. The first half is very Roland Emmerich while the second half is very Marvel. These two things did not transition very well, and I really did feel as though the first half's character beats were far too inorganic and artificial to be authentic. If you've seen The Day After Tomorrow as many times as I have, you'll notice the similarities easily, but where TDAT felt real and compelling, Moonfall simply does not. Still, I did not regret the watch and it kept my interest.

The Worst Person in the World. 3.5/5.

I watched The Adam Project. It was okay.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. 1/10. Devastatingly boring, pointless, and dumb.
