Hell or High Water: I grew up in a lovely little Western town much like the ones in the movie and they felt very accurate to that experience. I appreciated that there was some nuance in the characters, nobody was heroic and nobody was totally in the wrong (except Texas Midlands Bank, those mother fuckers). Came to hate Jeff Bridges' character especially at the end, having met a bunch of racist idiot cowboy cops IRL. 4 stars

"the banks are just like the white people stealing land from the native Americans" was a touch too on the nose as well lol

Conan: Probably one of the most 80s movies there is. I thought the effects were pretty good, sets looked nice, and the acting was largely pretty bad with the exception of James Earl Jones and Mako. Big lol at the crucifixion and resurrection scene. Big lol also at Arnold's vomitous "bleeeaugh! Yeaauug!" noises when he takes damage. 3 stars out of 5

Wheels on Meals: I've been in a kung fu movie mood lately so this was well timed. Loved the fight choreography throughout. Jackie Chan makes it look so easy. I think my favorite stunt was right at the end when Yuen Biao does a combat roll through the food truck window. Totally unnecessary in the best way. I watched this on free Plex and I think the ads were busted because literally every break was the same Gain laundry detergent ad three times in a row. 3 stars

Big Trouble in Little China: Love a quick and silly action flick. I don't know why Kurt Russell is doing some kind of cross between John Wayne and Han Solo but it works. Thought the sets looked great and the special effects haven't aged too badly. I enjoyed this one a lot, probably 4 stars out of 5. Victor Wong is cool.

Riki-Oh: Big fan of martial arts movies so I'm grading this one on a curve. I thought the beginning was great, with Ricky stopping the police batons, the x-ray, the fat guy fight in the shower etc. Kind of slowed down in the middle but they got me back with the prison riot and final fight. I love cheesy gore effects and there was a lot of it. Real sicko poo poo sometimes. 4 stars

Dirty Duck - I think I didn't like this. What was weird for me was that it always felt on the verge of being funny, but it never was. Like the shapeshifting John Wayne police officer is a really bizarre concept that should have been funny. Skibidi Yoko should have been funny. I actually kind of liked the animation. The style reminded me of some of those late 80s Nickelodeon bumper segments. Really ugly but in kind of a nice, nostalgic way. But mostly this was awful. 1 star

The Third Man: This is the kind of movie that's difficult to say something new about. Everything was well done. The sets were nice, the acting was good, and the plot was pretty standard noir fare but executed well. Some slightly more specific observations: I liked how Holly doesn't stop calling Callaway "Callaghan" until right at the end, like he finally cares enough to get it right. As someone else said, I'm really glad he didn't get the girl at the end; that would have been a cheap ending and it's used far too often in movies of the time. The sewer chase at the end was great, very claustrophobic and tense. 4 stars I think
