    ASTOUNDING! 

    The best musical of 2024 in a walk, Better Man shouldn't work but holy hell it does. Having no connection to any of the Robbie Williams songbook, this just played as a heartfelt yet bombastic musical.

    The VFX here are some of the greatest I've seen, a massive leap forward both technically and emotionally. Weta FX really outdid themselves here and that Oscar nomination is more than well-deserved.

    Loved this so damn much and oh my god I was bawling like a baby throughout the last 30 minutes. 

    Better Man is an all-timer I'm afraid.

    "I think this might just be my masterpiece."

    Ending your movie with that line, quickly followed by 'Written and Directed by Quentin Tarantino' is such a hilarious, ballsy move. Thing is, he's not wrong. Inglorious Basterds really is one of the greatest films of the last 20 years. 

    Filled with iconic imagery and some top-flight performances, Basterds grabs a hold and never lets go. The last Tarantino edited by Sally Menke, her steady hand has been missed ever since. 

    Timeless…

    Matt Damon sitting in the van, annoyed as hell, evaluating his life choices, is such a mood.

    A sequel that's so much more weird than the original that it's astounding.

    Fun Fact: Both halves are great it's just that children lose interest when a man isn't screaming in their face.

    Harry and Hermione dancing to Nick Cave is one of my favorite sequences in cinema.
