  Ocean's Eleven 2001

  ★★★½ Rewatched 01 May 2023

  Missing these all star casts in movies. Everyone from A-Z are going a 100 miles an hour.

  Cruising 1980

  ★★★ Rewatched 21 Apr 2023

  It did work better for me this time - there's effective tension, a cool style, a seedy New York. There are lots of exciting things in here, mainly due to some ambiguity, but I still just don't connect with it all that much. I think the disconnected Pacino performance takes me out of it.

  Spirited Away 2001

  ★★★ Watched 12 Dec 2022 1

  Beautifully imaginative and I really wanted to like this more, but remained mostly indifferent to the emotionality of Miyazaki's story beats. Yes, I am apparently a heartless asshole.

  The Hangover 2009

  ★★★½ Rewatched 19 Mar 2022

  This was the shit, when I was 13 - the soundtrack takes me right back in a blast of nostalgic bliss. And while some of the comedy has lost its edge, the three lead performances, Galifianakis in particular, are great enough for me to keep returning to this classic.
  Plus, that interaction between the shark-eyed kid with the flip phone and Galifianakis still makes me laugh as hard as ever.
