This is a good example of an 80’s police action movie. The incompetent by-the-books cops and cartoonish villains keep the story funny and fast paced and juxtapose well with the loose cannon protagonist.

A fun and not-too-scary horror movie, Fright Night is a perfect option to set the halloween vibe. A great choice to get your feet wet in the horror genre.

With a compelling story and a fun blending of historical western style and modern penal servitude, this has become an iconic example of a young adult film from the early 2000s. I saw this movie uncountably many times as a child, but I’m afraid it would be only nostalgia that could elevate this movie beyond a middling review from me.

This film’s interesting premise and anti-capitalist sentiment result in an imperfect, but still entertaining action thriller that seems to have aged rather well.

Kingsman has all the elements that make a spy movie fun. It has wall to wall action, futuristic gadgets, secret organizations, and evil plots to destroy the world. More importantly, it has a well written script and interesting cinematography to prop it up. If you can stomach the gratuitous violence, then I highly recommend you add this to your watchlist!

Family tragedy and rockstar chef stereotypes mix into a pretty formulaic rom-dram. It rises above most genre tropes and has a kernel of heart, but lacks anything approaching a commentary on the themes it sets up. Recommended if you want a lightweight slice of life romance.

A bit of a miss. Though not lacking in the same demonstrations of stage magic and elements of a heist film as the original, the ultimate blending of those aspects here is unimpressive. The result is an average action movie with a few magic show intermissions that pales in comparison to its predecessor.

A clever plot and many actual magic tricks make this movie an enjoyable romp. I would recommend it to most people due to the broad appeal of the illusions and especially to people that like crime movies.

Charming and highly stylized, this movie has immediately joined my shelf of favorites. Great if you are a Wes Anderson fan or just someone looking for absurdist humor.

Whisper of the Heart is a stunning and immersive world crafted by studio Ghibli that exudes a relaxed and nostalgic vibe. Every piece of it, from the music and the art to the characters and the story, is masterfully done.
