Mission Impossible:TFR was disappointing. Basically a very long trailer/exposition then a Michael Bay movie, into an silent indie film and then finally a Mission Impossible film. All done in unnecessary close up and, for the most part, very quick cuts.

Thunderbolts* / The New Avengers is probably the best Marvel film in quite some time. It does a good job at addressing mental health issues, making that a primary focus of the film, and delivers some pretty decent action

Mickey 17 has its moments but is the least subtle film you may ever see and the voiceover is, for the most part, particularly annoying. Robert Pattinson is good but I didn't think much of Mark Ruffalo's Musk/Trump pantomime hybrid.
