Mickey 17

2025

Watched

MICKEY 17 is 1/2 a city block that the, sadly, short lived HBO show AVENUE 5 was.  
To a New Yorker (with taste) this review will ring as true as any they’ve ever read. 
To the rest of ya…too bad. 
You get the jist. 
After it wasted every component it had going for it…
(All the MONEY that TALENT could buy and all the TALENT that MONEY hath bought)
It, like a puppy who shat all over the living…

2001: A Space Odyssey

1968

★★★★★ Liked Watched

As Perfect as Always
On my 4th Go Around
Beginning at 4am with a 7am finish 
Also….
Neither here nor anywhere but

I’m better than you.

The Northman

2022

★★★★ Liked Watched

If you like death mixed with Bjork and gorgeous cinematography …
then you’ll love this film.
I saw it in Denmark with Dutch subtitles and because of this film am now fluent in Dutch, Viking and Murder.
The “ol’ triumvirate” as they say in my family.
While it wasn’t as engaging as I wanted, I got all I bargained for.

A Different Man

2024

★★★ Rewatched

My old costar and pal Sebby Stan does all he can in this claustrophobic tale of regret with  Norwegian actress Renate Rensieve  serving up perfection, as always, and Adam Pearson burglarizing the entire thing in spite of showing up more than half way thru.
