Gladiator II 2024
Made me realize that both gladiator movies could have been much more effectively horny! A lot of lost potential. Boring stuff. Fan service non sequiturs throughout.

To Catch a Killer 2023
Can be boiled down to the moment when Shailene Woodley tries to convince a mass murderer not to commit suicide by telling him that she can “Get [him] medication. It works!” One of the dumbest iterations of “You have to be crazy to understand crazy” out there. This is a missed opportunity for classic garbage crime cinema.

Oppenheimer 2023
Mulling over the fact that it seems to be a truism among Nolan-heads that « the bigger screen on which you watch a Nolan movie, the better you can understand Nolan’s greatness. » I can watch Lawrence of Arabia on a laptop screen and still understand that it’s an amazing movie.
Still, I’m a fan of Tenet.
