  The Northman 2022

  ★★★★ Watched by jcolengey 24 Apr 2022

  Despite its deviations The Northman still manages to astonish as a meticulous amalgamation of myths and sagas. Egger's pedantic direction once again makes for a vivid and immersive picture steeped in studied minutiae.

  Signs 2002

  ★★★★ Watched by jcolengey 11 May 2022

  If this was released now it'd be a Cloverfield spin-off

  The Sixth Sense 1999

  ★★★★ Watched by jcolengey 11 May 2022

  Incredibly touching. And despite discovering the twist in utero the film still manages in its effectiveness. Elevated by Haley Joel Osment's incredibly nuanced performance. One of, if not, the best child actor performances I've seen. Thanks to @Eloi for the recommendation.

  Spider-Man: No Way Home 2021

  ★★★★ Watched by jcolengey 16 Dec 2021 5

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  This movie is pretty much entirely fan service and doesn't really make any sense, but hey, I'm a fan, and seeing my Spider-Man onscreen again was truly something.
