Sound Of Metal

This was a pretty great film. It doesn't use sound for one-third of the movie and it works incredibly well. Honestly I'll probably watch this again which is high praise coming from me. I really enjoyed this film and would recommend it.

AIR

AIR is a biodrama about how Nike got Micheal Jordan as a sponsor and it's surprisingly pretty good. It's a pretty interesting film that is likely biased towards Nike.

It's certainly nothing deep or heavy but it's a good film to watch when you just want a relaxing film. I'd recommend it to any sports fan or biodrama viewers out there.

The Beekeeper

This is very clearly inspired by John Wick, like distractingly so. It's still a fun film but I also couldn't help but notice how similar it was to John Wick.

Outside of that, it's pretty fun. The action is a bit over the top but still enjoyable to watch. The characters aren't that deep or interesting but they've got good enough acting behind it for me to get behind them.

Overall, it's good.

Challengers

It's fine I guess. I didn't really care for it but I gave it a shot and found it mostly just okay. It just wasn't really my cup of tea.

The Neon Demon

This was…not very good. Like it's just a confusing collection of scenes that feel frankly way too tryhard. I don't even know what the hell this was supposed to be.

The directing was interesting at times but the plot and characters just never grabbed me. I honestly can't remember any characters from this film, let alone what the story was about.

Red One

I didn't really care for this film. It honestly had very little I found interesting, the action was also generic as hell. I would just skip this film, it has nothing to offer.
