All Quiet on the Western Front because I just finished the book. I gave it 3/5 stars. I enjoyed 1917 better.

In the past week I’ve seen:

Ne Zha

The Rule of Jenny Pen (theater)

Ne Zha was decent. Really fun action sequences and great visuals in the action sequences. Some of the humor didn’t land, likely because it’s a kids movie and maybe because I’m American and Chinese humor just doesn’t land as well for me.

The Rule of Jenny Pen was certainly something. Its basically John Lithgow physically and mentally abusing elderly people with a puppet. I’d recommend watching it. Lithgow does a great job playing an absolutely unhinged psychopath.

Watched mickey 17, it was okay.

I saw Mickey 17 at my local cinema. Overall it was a good experience, the other cinema-goers were quiet and respectful so we could all enjoy the film properly (doesn’t always happen). The film itself was great for about two thirds and then pretty mediocre in the final third, but overall it was worth seeing for some classic Bong Joon-ho comedy.

Women in Love, definitely Ken Russell’s masterpiece.
