A ★★ review of Juror #2 (2024)
A bland court room drama that critiques the justice system with comments like, “it’s not perfect but it’s the best we got.” It works well as a tagline for the director - this isn’t Eastwood at his bes...

Best picture nominees for the 2025 Golden Globes. I’ve only seen Dune: Part Two and The Substance. Any one film in particular I should prioritize?

Got to see this gem in 4k on the big screen. Finishing up a year long dive into Kurosawa at my local theater (Ran, Ikiru, Rashomon, and finally Seven Samurai). Great crowd. There’s no one like Mifune.
