Weapons (2025)

What a disturbing movie. I liked the storytelling. Definitely great to be watched on a big screen with a good sound system.

Kpop Demon Hunters (2025)

It's okay.
 

Jurassic World Rebirth (2025)

For a generic blockbuster entertainment movie, I pretty much enjoyed this one. 

The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025)

Very pretty looking film, but I didn't really like it. The casting felt a bit off for me. And the story didn't draw me in enough. Some bits were too shallow for me to buy, particularly a specific plot point involving the Silver Surfer (which made me go "What?" the same way I did when Superman let his adoptive father die in order to keep his presence on Earth a secret in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel).

Materialists (2025)

Loved it. Loved the characters. Loved the dialogues. Gave me vibes of a fairy tale. All the actors were so good in this. One of my favs this year.

No Other Land (2024)

This is just a collection of normal daily occurrences that run from 2019 right up to around the October 7 attacks in 2023, wrapped with a narration to give it a sense of a package. 

It may not be easy viewing, because some of the scenes are just mundane daily occurrences. It may also not be easy viewing because of the way some people are documented to be treating others. And how some are living in trying conditions.

Docs like these are important because they not only serve as a piece of historical documentation, but also remind us that while some of us are living in parts of the world in general comfort, others are suffering and have little to no control over their living conditions.

Essential viewing for that mature audience.

Superman (2025) - IMAX

What are those tiny square dots on the IMAX screen at Lido that get highlighted whenever the image shows a white background?

Anyway, enjoyed the film muchly. Hawkgirl is the most generic character (and the one I liked least). Some fun moments with this Guy Gardner. Loved this Supes. And this Lex is not bad also.
