About Time

Oh Domhnall Gleeson really is a lovely kind man! They all are in this film. 

One and three quarters thumbs up - forgot it was another Richard Curtis, but that also explains why I really like it. Also, banger soundtrack.

Sentimental Value

Second time watching in the cinemas, and still missed out on the same first few minutes! I cried in the same spot though. 

Two thumbs up - the beauty is in how restrained it is.

Yi Yi

 The szechuan popcorn at Golden Age Cinema was just perfect!

One thumbs up - started off one and a half thumbs up, but lost some thumbs because that was just too slow. Beautiful shots, but we don't need to linger for that long.

Knives Out: Wake Up Dead Man

I thought it was Jeff Bridges until at least halfway, until I realised it was Thanos. That is why I laughed hard at the Lewbowski reference!
Half a thumbs up - kudos Josh O'Connor but yeah I see where it got ridiculous.
