Class of 1984

1982

★★★ Watched

Started off silly but got quite dark after a while
...and then darker and darker...
yeah, it wasn't what I was expecting but that's a positive.

Flight Risk

2025

★½ Watched

One of those movies where every dialogue exchange has somebody wisecracking even though it's a life or death situation.
Laughable.
And not in a good way.

Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles

1975

½ Watched

'Let's show the long, boring, uneventful monotony of a housewife's day through the use of long, boring, uneventful monotonous static shots.'
Zero points for thinking outside the box.
Dress it up as art all you want, it's the most boring, overrated fucking thing I've ever watched.
It only took 47 years for critics to 'get it' and vote it greatest movie of all time.
Excuse me if I take a similar amount of time to realise it's genius.

Dragon Lord

1982

★★★★½ Liked Rewatched

Hybrid Cut.
There's many different versions of Dragon Lord and the Hybrid cut is the longest. As it's one of my favourite Chan movies, I'm more than happy with the extra runtime.


The Alternative Asian cut is by far the worst and should be avoided as it completely changes the pace of the movie.
If you're watching Dragon Lord and the rugby/pyramid game is not at the start of the movie, you're watching the AA cut and you should really turn it off and find a better version.
