X (Ti West, 2022)
He never really bettered
The House Of The Devil imho.
He attempts to do the "seventies" thing here, what with the nods to TTCM and the like. The reveal was underdeveloped severely I felt. Others may just consider it undemanding.
The Batman (2022, Matt Reeves)
Overlong and underlit, this moody bugger slouches around for great stretches (world building?) and while there was some fun to be had, the woke element is just so poorly written (subtext being obviously for cowards
) ahem.
Did like the antagonist for all that. He's a looney
