RECOMMENDED/BEST REVIEW:
[I’m warning you now, this is over 10,000 words (what’s the record for longest review on Letterboxd?), took me a combined 6 hours of watching and typing to do this review (so technically this review took 4 hours to type up then right?). This is the most passion and time I spent…
I know, I know, Black Panther was meant to be next in the rewatch, but screw it, I wasn’t feeling in the mood so I went with this instead. It is once again time for my now famous story time, so buckle up (I’m not kidding, this is almost 1500 words just of story time, phenomenal!).
So I saw my first MCU movie in early July of 2019 (which was Far From Home in cinemas, and I’ve mentioned this before). To…

CURRENT REVIEW:
Yes, it’s been less than a week since I saw it. Luckily, I actually have a great reason for rewatching in such close proximity this time (rather than the usual ‘because I’m obsessed’ justification).

Yes, it’s been less than two weeks since the previous watch, and yes that previous watch was less than a week after the next previous watch. To which all I can say is that I’m addicted, and this is what makes a top 10 movie.

RECOMMENDED/BEST REVIEW:
Finally I got to see it again, and now I’m fully confident that EVERY film that I’ve already seen and would give 4.5 or 5 stars, I’ve logged on Letterboxd. Essentially, my favourites and top 100 here are now complete, and all future masterpieces are films that I’m yet to experience.
Because The Truman Show is up and away the best film I’ve ever seen that I hadn’t had…
Legacy sequels, when they’re done right, are one of my favourite types of movies (Blade Runner 2049, Mad Max Fury Road). So it really wasn’t a surprise that Top Gun: Maverick instantly receives a ‘like’ and top 50 ranking from me. My last two films have also both been cinema experiences, which is something I’ve never had before.
36 years between instalments, and Tom Cruise has aged about……10 years? It’s astonishing, especially when you compare to Blade Runner’s 35 year gap…
