Frozen II

This feels like one of those old Disney sequels that would go straight to VHS but they accidentally made it a theatrical release.

Godzilla Minus One

2023

★★★★★ Watched

Rarely does a kaiju monster movie actually scare me. This movie accomplished that. It topped the scale that Garett Edward’s 2014 Godzilla created for his monsters, making our main characters feel truly small and insignificant in the presence of the King of the Monsters. 
And speaking of characters, the movie annihilated the preconceived notion that monster movies have awful stories (which they normally do). Minus One is a great insight into letting go of the past, working towards a better future, the blessing of found family and family alike, and how a nation like Japan showed perhaps it’s greatest strength after WWII.

Late Night with the Devil

2023

★★★ Watched

I was hoping this to be a lot better than I thought it was. I liked the idea and some of the scenes. I almost wish the movie was longer, I know they probably thought that the unanswered questions would leave the feeling of mystery but I thought it was just missed opportunities to do something more with the characters.
