The Legend of Hei (2019)
If Flow wasn't adorable enough for you, this film will surely fulfill that itch whilst incorporating more (traditional) story-telling elements. The artistic choice of melding classic and modernity was enjoyable though I wish it was more detailed during the finale. This is the latest "cat movie" I've watched in recent weeks and I unabashedly adore this the most.

Mickey 17 (2025)
Written and directed by Bong Joon Ho of Parasite fame, one can't help but expect something greater than what Mickey 17 delivers. The premise is interesting and is suitably absurd but the great tragedy of it all is nothing is explored leading to missing profundity resulting in an average film.

Moana 2 (2024)
Moana 2 is everything you come to expect from Disney, a safe, family-friendly film in a familiar cookie-cutter mould that doesn't enthral nor fully disappoints. Its mediocrity permeates throughout the entire movie including each of its musical numbers.

Venom: The Last Dance (2024)
I remember watching Venom and although average, it was fun and the humour between the symbiote and Hardy was there. The latest Venom has a quarter of the fun and the humour all fell flat. I do need to draw attention to Juno Temple as the constant bulging-eyed stare on her expressionless face was absolutely jarring every time her character was on screen.
