  E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial 1982

  ★★★★½ Rewatched by Mike Shutt 17 Aug 2022

  If you are in a theater with hundreds of empty seats and you decide to sit next to someone with just a one-seat buffer, you are a deranged psychopath.

  Movie’s still good.

  Rouge 1987

  ★★★★ Watched by Mike Shutt 13 Aug 2022

  Sure the period glamor of Anita Mui is great and all, but I’ll take Emily Chu in a nice sweater.

  The threading of shattering the illusion of everlasting love and learning to embrace the love you currently have really worked for me. Plus, it just looks incredible.

  Last Night in Soho 2021

  ★★ Watched by Mike Shutt 24 Sep 2021

  I understand the aesthetic appeal of Anya Taylor-Joy traversing 1960s London, believe me. But everything else here… is just so muddled and boring, two words I never thought I’d use to describe an Edgar Wright movie. Such a let down.

  Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase 2019

  ★ Watched by Mike Shutt 19 Mar 2019

  Had this started with Sophia Lillis drawing mouse ears with a glow stick, this movie would’ve made a lot more sense.
