Midnight in Paris

Time travel (to the past) truly is a white man's game.
One and three quarter thumbs up - I like this movie very much, and I guess I will have to continue to separate the art from the artist.

40 Year Old Virgin

Seth Rogen was only 22 years old when filming this?! That's an old looking 22 year old!
One thumbs up - but personal thumbs down to me for botching the eclair filling/decoration last night.

Julie and Julia

How can you consider yourself a foodie but have never eaten an egg until you are 29 years old? Yeah nah.
One thumbs up - it is my mediocre guilty pleasure.

True Cost

Even at the level of the seed there are environmental and social problems - that is insane and really highlighted how penetrative the problems are at all levels. 

One thumbs up - that was really enlightening, and now I am thinking is there a 'fast optics' parallel with all the cheap brands flogging their wares?

Crazy Rich Asians

First time in mum and bubs session. Baby Jack looked at me a lot and he was adorable. And a group of tween boys came in as well, probably because tickets were only $10!

Half a thumbs up - it was pretty much exactly what you expected, a lighthearted rom-com nothing special, but it was fun and it was great to see so many Asian faces (and good looking ones!). 

Sierra Burgess is a Loser

You hack into a girl's Instagram and spread private stuff, and get away with it with by sending a song and a hug as an apology?! Ridiculous and cowardly - you don't deserve Veronica's help or forgiveness.
One and half thumbs down - wow that was shite - and seriously forgiving of catfishing, which is fucked.

Blackkklansman

K: "Oh hey, the lead actor is Denzel Washington's son!"
J: "Oh that explains it. I didn't want to be racist but I did think he reminded me of Denzel... Training Day!"
One thumbs up - it was good, and what an impact from the end scenes/montage - but it was a bit slow at times; some cuts and edits should have been made. Also, White Power shit is both so stupid and so frightening.

Elizabeth

So the poisoned dress is entirely fabricated; which I am glad I checked first because I have so many questions about how that would work.
Half a thumbs up - it was mostly background noise whilst I sorted Sri Lanka photos

To All The Boys I've Loved

The single best thing about this (besides being adorable) is that where they could have easily had a white girl lead (which many studios insisted on), they had a gorgeous Asian girl without making a big deal about her Asian-ness - she was just an ordinary sweet girl.
One thumbs up - and the girl is actually adopted from Vietnam in real life!
