I like it.

I rewatched the trilogy recently and there’s no doubt in my mind that FOTR is the best of the three. Darn near perfect movie.

Mean Streets?

Two hours later...

I enjoyed Bumblebee a lot overall. I liked the Iron Giant-esque direction they took the story, though the parts that stood out to me most were the scenes set on Cybertron. The entire opening sequence is just brilliantly animated and executed. Why couldn't we have gotten this in 2007?

Only the 2007 movie, Dark of the Moon, and Bumblebee are worth taking a look.

Groundhog Day (1993) This is actually the first time I’ve seen this movie, and I enjoyed it quite a lot! Very sweet and clever script with plenty of laughs. I’m not the biggest fan of Bill Murray, but I really enjoyed his performance here; he brings the perfect balance of snark and sincerity to the role. The movie probably would’ve not worked with any other actor but him. **** out of *****

I thought this had been confirmed for some time already?

Jojo Rabbit A decently pleasant diversion. Story felt a bit thin at times, and it often felt like it was aping the style of Wes Anderson, but it had some charms of its own, along with some unexpectedly poignant moments. Really enjoyed Roman Griffin Davis’ central performance; the relationship between his character and his mother gave the movie a lot of heart. *** and 1/2 out of *****

Indian actor Irrfan Khan has died at 53. Man this hurts. Really liked him as an actor; he was great in Life of Pi.
