Possessor (2020) - when watching this movie I was thinking about Cronenberg movies having some influence on this one, then I had a look who directed it - it was David Cronenberg son xd

Dr. No (1962)

British spy film. Well, it's 2022 and I thought I should finally fill a big hole and watch the James Bond movies. So this is the first one. It's not outstanding (and I think there will be better ones to come) but it's definitely very good and I can see why they continued making more James Bond movies after this. Can recommend!

The House That Jack Built (2018)

French-german-danish psychological horror thriller film. Rewatched this yesterday. It's very artistic, yet very disturbing. Matt Dillon plays the main character perfectly and you're fascinated but also repulsed by his actions. It's definitely not for the faint of heart, but if you know the kind of movies Lars von Trier makes and you haven't watched this one yet, go for it!

Back to the Outback - 7/10

From Russia with Love (1963)

British spy film. It's better than the first one in my opinion. We see more of the inner workings and I also like the setting more. Recommended, but I still think they can do (and did) better.

Goldfinger (1964)

British spy film. Okay, this one is definitely the best one so far. It's just more Bond. It has more gadgets, it has the first iconic Bond car, it has a great villain, great characters... I definitely like this the most so far. This is actually the first Bond I think is great.

Lamb (2021) for people that like dramas mixed with folk tales.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time 👍

Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead 🤙

The Hand of God

Thunderball (1965)

British spy film. This one was also very good. Not as good as Goldfinger but this was still very entertaining!

You Only Live Twice (1967)

British spy film. The plot is a bit more fantastical with spacecrafts, ninjas and volcano bases and such, but Roald Dahl wrote the screenplay so that might be his doing. It is kinda silly if you think about this but as a newcomer to the franchise I don't mind this too much. I did enjoy this movie. I like the cold war aspects with both the Americans and the Soviets blaming each other for the failed space missions and Blofeld as a very good villain trying to ignite another war.

Matrix 4 - it was cringe!
On the other hand new Spidey is not that bad but I most liked the House of Gucci.

On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969)

British spy film. The first regular non-Connery Bond. It's interesting to see how different George Lazenby portrays the character. Might have to consider that he wasn't an actor before this but I still thought he did a good job with what he was given. But I can't believe that he was 29 in this movie. I mean I'm 28. I don't look that old. Yeah, so overall I think for now this was the weakest Bond movie. Nice setting, but not having Sean Connery in this and Blofeld being portrayed by Kojak (iykyk) it doesn't feel very Bond at all. I do like the sad ending, though. Pretty melancholic for a Bond movie.

Ghostbusters Afterlife (2021)
Not bad at all. Picks you up if you haven't watched the original and gives you (maybe a few too many) nostalgia moments if you have. The main character is pretty interesting and the story isn't too bad, so overall a decent popcorn flick.

Diamonds Are Forever (1971)

British spy film. And now Connery is back, for whatever reason. Didn't know Crispin Glover's father is also an actor but now I do know where he gets his shtick from. Interesting characters, good story, but definitely not Sean Connery's best Bond. Another actor playing Blofeld but at least now it's explained through plastic surgery. Overall I like this more than some of the Bond movies I've seen so far but less than others. At least this one had Connery again.

V/H/S (2012)
Pretty good effects and some creative aesthetics but terrible acting and writing kills most of it. 4/10

V/H/S/2(2013)
Safe Haven segment alone is better then the entire first film,but sadly same can't be said about anything else. 4/10

V/H/S Viral(2014)
So much more aggressively stupid and trashy then previous two it becomes more enjoyable ironically. Though I would argue the Bonehead segment is unironically good. 5/10

Live and Let Die (1973)

British spy film. First one with Roger Moore. Interesting to see how different he portrays the characters. But after watching all of Connery's Bond movies and now having watched the first Roger Moore one I feel like he's a more than worthy replacement. I assume that people were upset back then because nobody likes new things, but surely they quickly realized that they got a great Bond.

Burying the Ex (2014)

A zombie comedy shown on Horror Channel last night

When Max learns that his new live-in girlfriend, Evelyn is controlling and manipulative, he is afraid to end the relationship. However, fate occurs and Evelyn is killed in a freak accident. A couple months have passed and Max meets his dream girl, Olivia. The new romance gets tricky when Evelyn comes back from the grave and insists on continuing their once relationship by any means.

Don't Look Up - 9/10

Watchmen (2009)

American superhero film. Rewatched this yesterday. I've absolutely loved it as a 16 year old when it was released, but now I see some obvious flaws. It's not a great movie, but fuck it. I still love it. Watching this yesterday did remind me that a friend of mine bought himself the deluxe edition comic a few years ago. It was a bit too expensive for me back then but I found it for a good price after watching the movie yesterday so I just bought a copy. I feel like I also should watch the HBO series some time.
