Films

294 films I've watched with assorted notes where applicable.

Proper tracking began in 2025, so most watch logging prior to that is omitted. Some pre-2025 details have been recovered but may be noted with generalised specifics. It is very possible that I have watched listed content more times than is represented here.

  1. Wake Up Dead Man (2025)

    ■◧□□□

    Notes

    Excruciatingly boring in visuals, storytelling, and writing. Only became mildly interesting in the final quarter.

  2. The Naked Gun (2025)

    Notes

    Not quite as sharp as the originals. What made Zucker, Abrahams, and Zucker brilliant was the sheer number of layered jokes that are so numerous that even after several watches you continue to discover new ones. I feel like I've experienced all this film has to offer in the first watch, and that each of the jokes felt added on, rather than inline and spur of the moment. They were almost skits, rather than quick visual gags or witty turns of phrase that you take a moment to process before chuckling.

  3. Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning (2025)

    Notes

    Too long and extremely poorly paced. The action sequences were exhilarating, and the visuals were great, but the story was sloppy. Generically named malevolent AI that gains sentience and tries to destroy the world is a plot that has been done to death. The action scenes were slightly marred due to the characters being seemingly invincible and thus the risks being nullified. One can only suspend their disbelief so much in a film that is attempting to remain based in reality.

    A fantastic satire, though it is a shame that private enterprise meddling in public services and police brutality have remained such relevant topics. The stop-motion and practical effects are fantastic. Where many films present an 80s version of the future, RoboCop feels like the future brought back to the 80s.

      Redux. Far worse than theatrical and a plain step-down in pacing. Added material was unnecessary and was cut for a reason.

  284. A Clockwork Orange (1971)

    ■■■◧□

    Notes

    Holding the book in such high regard, I was rather disappointed by the film and am maligned by the fact that it seems to be the version of A Clockwork Orange in the zeitgeist.

  285. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)

    Notes

    I love the slightly sinister undertones of completely unhinged insanity Gene Wilder brings. The tunnel scene in particular is wonderfully and disorientingly disturbing.

  286. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968)

    Notes

    A film from my childhood I hold most dear. It is imbued with a certain sort of magic I struggle to articulate. It is clever, and fun, and fantasmagorical.
