    Weapons (2025) ⭐ 7.6 | Horror, Mystery

    2h 8m | R

    Went in uninformed on purpose

    Great pacing, lots of jumps, good acting

    Interesting storyline but with an unexplained premise

    3 blunt force traumas out of 5 skilled precision

    The chick with the two minute noodles for hair from Ozark is a massive red flag for me, is she at least tolerable ?

    For me, she's good in everything. But I guess we all like/dislike different actors.

    Helps that I first saw her in The Americans which is one of my all time favourite shows.

    Eden

    Jude Law, Ana De Armas, Sydney Sweeney, Daniel Bruehl

    Based on the true story of Dr. Friedrich Ritter and Dore Strauch flee Germany in 1929 to live on one of the Galapogas Islands.

    As he documents his life there, another couple go there to live as well and soon after, a wannabe socialite who plans to build a lavish resort there.

    Decent enough story, havent looked into how close to the actual events it was, doesnt really get going and moves along at a sedentary pace.

    I just recently listened to a podcast about this (I think it was Behind the Bastards, but could have been a history one. Is Ana De Armas or Sydney Sweeny playing Dore? Either way, they're both far more attractive than the mental image of her that I have in my head.

    @Nepia ha, neither play her, Vanessa Kirby plays Dore.

    Sweeny is made to look very plain in this as the wife of Bruehl, while Ana is the socialite, who despite her surroundings tries to keep up the look.

    Finally saw The Legend of Baron To'a.
    Sub-par cinematography, ropey dialogue, C-grade plot innovation, outrageous fortune star disguised her blonde locks to look more Polynesian, the set barely left the street, one of the meanest was an ex-playschool presenter, totally predictable ending.

    Loved it.
