Reminiscence, 2021 – ★★★

I liked it, I liked the dystopian sort of cyberpunk ish Noir world. There are a lot of parts that kind of feel like, "Is this based on a book where this is a bit more fleshed out." And the end was a little meh, not for what it was but for just, reasons that feel too spoilery.

Just, I feel like "they would not have let him do that in that way" covers it for anyone not wanting to be spilered. Maybe "they would let him do that" but just not "in that way".

Kind of predictable a bit in that you know there will be twists, not necessarily what they are but it's a movie that screams "This plot device will have layers of twists."

Training Day, 2001 – ★★★★

I thoroughly enjoy this film every single time I watch it. It's pretty intense from start to finish in the best way. As crazy as Denzel is, he kind of has some good points to be made.

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 – ★★★
