Bad Boys II 2003
π₯π¨πππ
THE DEFINITIVE 00's AMERICAN ACTION MOVIE. PURE UNADULTERATED MEAN BAYHEM.
Having enjoyed Bad Boys 1 and its nihilism infused buddy cop comedy duo laughing it up, guns in hand, taking down a drug kingpin and holding onto a witness with only the job and their extremely fragile egos in mind, I decided to throw on its sequel, knowing it went balls to the wall and at the time reception was very mixed. I loved it.
Its an absolute pureβ¦

La La Land 2016
'There's a nice way to say that Karen'
Its technically flawless, painting a true 'techni-colour world' and as a musical; every song is a banger. However, more importantly it is a timeless ode to anyone who had or has a dream or a vision of a life they could live or may have missed.

A Haunting in Venice 2023
Was not expecting Branagh's third outting at Poirot to be such a revolation but thats why you check it out for yourself.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 2023

Prey 2022
The genius of franchises like alien and predator is finding a unique new setting to put the classic monsters into which offers a new angle and social commentary previously untread.
Prey drops the iconically ugly motherfucker onto a native American tribe while the Europeans are invading and our protagonist and dog is learning what it takes to survive in the tribe and her place in it.
The native American respect for natural balance and survival pairs perfectly with the predators gleeful and technologically superior need to hunt. Beautiful, amazing and simple movie.
