I watch a lot of movies. Sometimes I review them on podcasts.

The Adam Project 2022
It's only a 3 out of 5 movie - but Mark Ruffalo is great, worth a whole star on his own.
This was fun, and easy to watch. There was no hard science or thinky thoughts necessary - just a fun time travel romp with a heartfelt closing speech from Ruffalo.
I'm not sure there is a Ruffalo performance that doesn't bring me to tears at some point... even Ragnarok. Scratch that - Endgame and Infinitiy War did him dirty so my tears were only for his wasted talent.

A Simple Favor 2018
Not bad overall. Seemed to be slightly lacking something but I'm not sure what.
I for sure changed my opinion a million times throughout the movie of who killed who. Was it the husband, was it the super clingy "best friend", was it someone from the past?
I feel like this movie could have taken a bunch of different routes and maybe didn't choose the most interesting one, but was still an alright watch.

The French Dispatch 2021
I haven't been so excited to watch a Wes Anderson film in a decade, and it delivered exactly what I wanted. Beautifully framed shots, incredible sets, completely oddball characters, language no normal person would use.
I loved it!

Heart of the Holidays 2020
Ugh, would have been nicer if the writers had any idea how food banks or working in not for profits and social service delivery worked.
