The Rhythm Section Woman gets embroiled in secret agent shit. Avoids most of the cliches. I love Jude Law. Just about worth watching but far from great. 2/5

JoJo Rabbit 4/5 Maybe played it a little bit too safe. I don't know if it did the subject matter justice - especially given the current tendency towards nationalism - but I still really enjoyed it and it had some proper laughs, some tears and 2 fantastic performances.

The Dark Red (2018 I think) 3/5. Would have been 4 if they’d done something more interesting with the closing third. Up to that point I thought it was excellent.

Onward 3.5/5 - like others have said, feels more Dreamworks than Pixar, doesn't move the CGI industry on particularly but some very funny moments and some very heartwarming ones. The Hunt 3/5 - Quite a bit better than I expected. Lucy in the Sky 2/5 - Great acting from Portman but very confused. Unless they intended to illustrate that mental health issues are just all over the place, in which case they achieved that.

Gattaca 5/5 Still just as beautiful

Or basically anything more interesting than

Just watched this and completely agree. I want my 2 hours back. I’m not spoilering any of this because I wouldn’t want anyone else to sit through it. Yeah there was a message in there but we knew it 5 minutes in. Absolutely terrible. The science was all over the shop. The jump through the rings to a tiny target from a spinning platform?! Jesus Christ. Worse than frozen space angel Leia. Using a nuclear explosion like a wave to surf on? The fact the surge things were coming from an antenna dish and yet all happened to be directly in line with wherever Brad was at the time?? We need to get

Tempting but I sort of want to support local businesses if I can. I'll wait a bit longer but thanks for the link, might well use them if this goes on.

So ... are Canon actually making any of these effing R5s or R6s?

“Winter” was excellent. Properly tense. Those kids are good actors.

That last episode had me shart myself

@robdood -

Oh my word, happened across a superb combination today which got me to the end (and haven't they done a great job of that!) Shield of all bloody things. Didn't press attack once in the whole run. Got my Special Doomed up to about 160 with a +4 target bounce and then found something which buffed that by 189% so I was doing about 328 damage albeit delayed by 0.5s. Combined with entry level dash (x3) deflect which saved an awful lot of hurt, Cast that was those red Ares whirlpools amped up a fair bit in size and damage, and a Level 2 poseidon Call which I had at max power and didn't e

This covers it quite well

I'd have thought it could just auto-calculate an optimal gamma curve based on the darkest & brightest pixels on the screen, and maybe percentage - so one candle wouldn't overload a dark scene. Maybe.
