  Absolutely nothing unethical about this whatsoever.

  The Dark and the Wicked 2020

  ★★★ Watched 18 Nov 2020

  Bryan Bertino clearly attended the Michael Haneke School of Incredibly Bleak Filmmaking, but the effort invested in building the tension and atmosphere was ultimately wasted with that disappointing unsatisfying ending.

  Cocoon 1985

  ★★★★ Added

  Happy to have watched this at a time in life where films were more about experiencing than overanalysing. I'm suddenly 8 years old again, sitting on the carpet eating homemade tamarind balls in front of the television at my grandma's apartment. A touchingly poignant exploration of aging and death; every bit as sweet and delightful as my childhood self remembers, with the depth of meaning now enhanced by viewing through the prism of adult understanding. A wonderful and gloriously human experience. RIP Wilford Brimley (and Brian Dennehy).
