Uncharted 2022
Uncharted is a franchise that is really personal for me (Uncharted 4 being my favourite game ever made), but I was expecting the worst for this, but I'm pleasantly surprised!. Mark Wahlberg while entertaining is still severely miscast as Sully but I think Tom did a solid job of Nathan. It remixes and does a lot of things with the Uncharted lore and while I don't agree with all of it (mainly some of the motivation's of Sully and Chloe),โฆ

Bicycle Thieves 1948
I stole a bicycle once. I tried explaining to the cops that I was merely paying homage to post-war Italian neorealism.

Last Night in Soho 2021
Genuinely jaw dropping, tightly written narrative mystery and true horror and thrill crafted from making reality an unreliable narrator.
You are constantly in the same headspace as Eloise, her fears are your own, the way reality and dream blends is seamless.
Editing and choreography is just as snappy on on tempo as you expect from any of Wright's films but the soundtrack really expands every scene and character through lyric and sound.
This film truly earns its climactic moments that full dip into the surreal and create intoxicating imagery. Its completely unfiltered practical beauty, a surreal horror that is genuinely real - literally and metaphorically.

Dune 2021
37, Full time gamer, Married (previously) (well not totally weโre separated) (she took Half the kids), Father of 3 (the half I got to keep). This movie inspired me to pursue my dreams of starting a holy war without really knowing I was starting a holy war. Too bad there was too much talking and not enough war. And Jessica not telling Poe Dameron (I forgot his character name but I liked the Star War) The whole truth about Paulsโฆ

Dune 2021
As a part one of a two part movie it's difficult for me to get invested in something that's pretty much all preamble. That aside the scale of this film is massive - so many gigantic sets and backgrounds that make our characters look like ants. Nice to see a blockbuster that looks like it was worth millions for a change. Surprisingly faithful to the book too - so why despite all this is it so dimly lit you can't even see the giant sandworms?
