28 Years Later 3.5/5: Man, they just decided to get weird with it huh? Look, there's one gigantic, swinging, singular thing to talk about in this movie which is a batshit crazy choice but overall I think this might be the best in the series. I'll have to see how they turn this into a 3 parter before I can commit to that opinion
Oh, Hi! 3/5: This was a mystery movie monday movie and I think this one is going to resonate with a lot of women. I would have liked the ending to be a little less ambiguous, which is how I'm choosing to interpret it because if I take it the way everyone else online did then the movie loses a star and a half
Prey (2022) 4.5/5: Dan Trachtenberg continues to put out the best Predator movies. It's probably not fair that I like this more than the original because it is so clearly a love letter to the original. Still the story works really well on a re-watch when you see the formula for the movie much more clearly. I had zero expectations for Predator: Badlands and Dan has quickly moved it up my must see list
Watched 28 Years Later yesterday in the cinema, and while I don't agree with it being the best in the series as the first one is still kilometers above it, I agree it is a solid 3.5 and even 4 for me. I am not a Brit, but once I researched that choice and learned who Jimmy Savile was, then it suddenly made a lot of sense and became the darkest scene in the movie hands down.
