Point Break: Ridiculously stupid film but surprisingly quite fun. Big production value upgrade compared to previous Swayze joints like Roadhouse (which has aged like milk in the sun and was a shit movie to begin with). At least Point Break is fun. Roadhouse is just an unintentional comedy.
Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery: Loved the original and this was quite good as well. Bit less Agatha Christie, more Among Us, but whatever, good times, good movie. Seems to have been filmed with a lot of individual scenes edited to seem like people are together — probably because of that big dumb pandemic.
It’s a Wonderful Life: This holds up, even though the movie is like 80% setup for its last 15 minutes or so. Never really noticed that before. It’s really just a good-old-boy life story that turns into a supernatural fantasy film 1.5 hours in. Lmao.
Emily the Criminal: Good but not as good as some would have you believe. A fine film with fine performances, but nothing super special. Spoiler alert, Emily becomes a criminal!
