City Hunter 4/5: This shit was so fucking goofy, but honestly it leaned into it just the right amount. Funny, horny, and also kind of exactly the same plot as season 1 of My Hero Academia: Vigilantes
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World 3/5: This is a great dad movie. Just a lot of really well done ship drama, and well acted. Not mind blowing but not atrocious either
I Know What You did Last Summer (2025) 2.5/5: I liked it better than the original. It had to spend some time doing references to the old one which made it spend less time on the nonsense plot, which is to its benefit. Also I'm younger and the young people jokes landed better than the old one did
Eddington 2/5: Ignoring the insane incident that happened to me at the theater, this is basically Don't Look Up but for 2020 instead of climate change. It's less tone deaf and condescending but still kinda sucks at delivering its less than paper thin message
The Core 3/5: I know this movie is frequently regarded as one of the least scientifically accurate movies ever made, but that's kinda what I like about it. I said a similar thing about Looper recently but when a movie basically stares down the barrel of the camera and says "stop thinking too hard about it nerd" I have some respect. The early 2000s disaster movie needs to come back
Superman (2025) 3/5: There's several things I genuinely appreciate about this movie: it's goofy as hell, they use DC characters we haven't seen a million times, Superman isn't complicated, he genuinely wants to be as good as possible. However it gets really slow in parts and a lot of the camera work was so weird it actively brought me out of the movie to ask, who the fuck chose to do this?
