S.W.A.T., 2003 – ★★★

Starts going off the rails a bit during the climax, but the build up is fun and the plane bit during training was great.

Why did they keep foreshadowing that big harpoon gun then nothing came of it?

Also, it felt like they made the villain as multinational and ambiguously racial as possible to avoid offending anyone specifically.

Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, 1986 – ★★★★

This is called Ferris Bueller's Day Off but it's basically Cameron and Jeanie's movie, these two get all the character growth, Ferris just sort of, screws around the whole movie.

WarGames, 1983 – ★★★

Watched on Saturday July 20, 2024.

Star Trek Beyond, 2016 – ★★★★

Probably the best of these honestly. Only two real core issues.

One is a mild spoiler but it involves ship sizes vs crew sizes. I am sure that can be inferred.

The other is Spock's hair. WTF is going on with Spock's weird looking hair in this.

Star Trek Into Darkness, 2013 – ★★

Why is Cumberband so freakishly intense in this thing?

Also, within the span of like, five minutes, maybe even real time, Kirk goes from Captain of the Federation's most prized starship, back to academy cadet, back to First Officer, back to Captain.

Like... Why?

Also the transporters are always magically not usable (not broken, just not usable) during a million moments when they would be useful.

During the final sequence my wife turns and asks if they crash landed in the Marvel Universe.
