Godzilla Minus 1 6/10

Miles apart from that other cgi shit fest, this version is a character driven narrative about a kamikaze pilot trying to redeem himself by taking out the big guy.

Zilla has a great screen presence and the destruction scenes are pretty great.

enjoyed it

Kingdom of The Planet of the Apes

The latest tale in the reboot of the Planet of the Apes saga is almost up to date now with the original first movie, in this one, the Kingdom, we find Noah, a young chimp living with his clan peacefully rearing eagles when a chance encounter with a young human girl, May, has his village destroyed by gorillas led by the self-styled new Caesar ape, Proximus, who bases his empire on the Roman one as he has a pet human who reads him books.

Noah and May find themselves captured by Proximus, who has his base in a rusting hulk of a ship and is trying to breach the metal doors to a fallout silo where human tech and weapons are stored.

Quite enjoyable, you wouldn't even notice the nearly three hours passing by, a good movie, the CGI is top notch, the ruined cities and World is done good and hopefully they follow up with another one as the ending is...intriguing' a solid 7/10

Perfect Days (2023).

Winner of the best actor award at Cannes 2023. A slow moving 2 hour film set in Tokyo about the daily, repetitive life of a city toilet cleaner in his 60's. He seems to be happy with his routine existence. Nothing much happens and you'd want to be in the mood for a film like this, which I was. Both sad and joyful in it's simplicity with odd, scrambled glimpses of the normal life he used to have. Great snatches of music while he travels in his van from toilet to toilet - The Animals, Lou Reed, The Kinks, Patti Smith etc.

In Japanese with very little dialogue. For some it would be a yawn/10, for me 6.5/10.

Would agree with your review,I really liked this film,you had to stick with it as it takes it's time to tell the story,definitely worth a watch

The Coffee Table 7/10

With their relationship under strain, new parents Maria and Jesus move in to an apartment and buy a new coffee table to mark the occasion, a decision that will change their lives forever.

I rate films on how they make me feel and watching this made me want to peel my skin off.

The Zone of Interest 8/10
Like a slow-moving Ken Loach kitchen sink drama but every now and then you hear gunshots or see a guard tower in the background.

Polar - yer man out of the Carlsberg Ad (was a James Bond villain) is the main man. A lethal hitman just about to retire.

Entertaining enough 6.5
