Ladies in Lavender, 2004 – ★★★½
Very sweet! ?
Hamilton, 2020 – ★★★★★
I cried again.
Avengers: Age of Ultron, 2015 – ★★★½
Watched this again to remind myself the origin stories of Wanda and Vision, as I’m loving WandaVision. It’s good, but not great.
The Visit, 2015 – ★★★
Creepy as hell
Behind Her Eyes, 2021 – ★★★
I’m really not sure what to rate this.
It was very well made, I thought. A bit too long perhaps, but that worked to build tension.
I knew there was going to be a big twist because Netflix have been tweeting about it so much. I’d have rather not known, because I spent a lot of time trying to guess the twist (and it’s not really something you can guess!) but I suppose I may not have persevered with it if I wasn’t looking forward to the ending (though what does that say about the pacing?).
There are also some problematic elements about the ending, which others have explained quite well.
I’m still unsure. I’m glad I watched it, it was a very interesting experience. I’m just not sure it was good.
Us, 2019 – ★★★½
Creepy as hell. Some really interesting ideas. I think I need to watch it again before I fully get it.
Gladiator, 2000 – ★★★½
Watched on Friday February 19, 2021.
Onward, 2020 – ★★★★
This was very sweet
Spree, 2020 – ★★
I feel really dirty after seeing this.
A Nightmare on Elm Street, 2010 – ★★½
Not as bad as people say. But pretty bad.
Aliens, 1986 – ★★★★½
**Get away from her, you bitch!**
V for Vendetta, 2005 – ★★★★★
Can’t believe this was made 16 years ago, it could be describing the British government today.
Ringu, 1998 – ★★★
I feel like I would like this a lot more if The Ring wasn’t one of my favourite movies that I’ve seen loads of times. I just kept comparing it to the American version and I like that one better, sorry!
Alien, 1979 – ★★★★★
This review may contain spoilers.
A classic. But honestly when the Alien first bursts from the chest, and later when it is napping, it is so cute!
Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, 2019 – ★★★½
Watched on Wednesday February 3, 2021.
Scream, 1996 – ★★★★
Watched on Monday February 1, 2021.
The ‘Burbs, 1989 – ★★½
I remember seeing this when I was younger. It's not that good, but brings back some funny memories!
