The Phoenician Scheme

2025

★★★ Watched

Wish it was a bit funnier, but I still enjoy Wes Anderson’s period of aggressively telling you where you are in the story via title card.

Alien Resurrection

1997

★★★½ Rewatched

As the Alien franchise has become a mess (odds on a Xenomorph in that new Predator movie seem non-zero), Resurrection looks better and better. 

From the cinematographer of Seven comes a French Alien movie that broaches genetics, the thing Ridley Scott would insist the franchise is about (with some black goo). It also has humor that works? 

Aging with this franchise means eventually recognizing this is the third best Alien film.

I’m not a sports person but Beetlejuice saying “the juice is loose” after being free’d again from the afterlife the same year OJ Simpson went to hell is fucking hilarious.

Thank you for reading this review because this movie is horrible but I have a wager that depends on Letterboxed logged count and rating.
Anyway, don’t see this movie, it is bad. Or if you do see it, pay full price, my bet has a box office component.
