 ====== Movies I've Watched ====== ====== Movies I've Watched ======
   * See also [[Notable movies]]   * See also [[Notable movies]]
 +
 +===== 2024 ===
 +==== December ====
 +  * [[wp>​Heretic]] (2024) - This was ok.  Nice to see Hugh Grant as a villian.
 +  * [[wp>Red One]] (2024) - This was pretty dire.
 +
 +==== August ====
 +  * [[wp>​Subservience]] (2024) - Fun little robot movie. ​ Megan Fox seemed very suited to the role.  The 'evil change'​ in the robot could be better explained/​justified,​ but it was fine for a horror movie (as opposed to a sci-fi movie).
 +  * [[wp>​Alien Romulus]] (2024) - I enjoyed this movie. ​ Far better than Prometheus/​Covenant. ​ I'll definitely rewatch it again soon I think.
 +==== July ====
 +  * [[wp>​Enter The Dragon]] (1973) - Watched this as part of a Kung Fu night. ​ Felt like Chinese James Bond.  I liked it too.
 +  * [[wp>Way of the Dragon]] (1972) - Watched this as part of a Chuck Noris night. ​ Good kung-fu film.
 +==== June ====
 +  * [[wp>​Paprika]] (2006) - Interesting movie. ​ Pretty surreal. ​ Watched it at one of the movie nights in the club.
 +  * [[wp>​Tales from Earthsea]] (2006) - Not bad, I liked the voice acting from Timothy Dalton. ​ Was that a trans villian? ​ Interesting.
 +  * [[wp>​Abigail]] (2024) - I really enjoyed this.  Watched it without knowing much about it.  Good character introductions and some fun over the top action.
 +==== May ====
 +  * [[wp>​Atlas]] (2024) - Meh, this was pretty rubbish. ​ I was expecting some more badass scenes of the AI protecting its occupant etc but it all just sorta fell flat.
 +====April ====
 +  * [[wp>Why Him?]] (2016) - Fun little movie, watched with Naomi.
 +====March ====
 +  * [[wp>​Dune:​ Part Two]] - This was excellent. ​ I was struggling to find a free night to see this, and ended up watching a 4DX show.  I need to remind myself to never do that again, I find it too annoying/​distracting.
 +====January =====
 +  * [[wp>​Body Snatchers]] (1993) - I thought I'd already seen this, but a clip or two I saw wasn't familiar. ​ Anyway, enjoyed this take on it, though it's probably the worst one.
 +  * [[wp>​Brainscan]] (1994) - Cheesy sci-fi arcade/VR movie with an interesting premise. ​ I liked it.
 +  * [[wp>​Airborne]] (1993) - Early Seth Green and Jack Black film.  It was pretty dire, but I enjoyed how difficult they made inline skating look :)  Very 90s.
 +  * [[wp>​Arcade]] (1993) - Another cheesy sci-fi entry in that 90s genre of VR/tech sci-fi that I have a soft spot for.
  
 ===== 2023 ==== ===== 2023 ====
 ==== December ===== ==== December =====
 +  * [[wp>​Charly]] (1968) - I just skimmed this movie as the cinematography was a bit dated and I'd read the source material. ​ It was well made though, I liked it.  Beautiful ending.
 +  * [[wp>​Brainstorm]] (1983) - Watched this again as I couldn'​t quite remember it and I was working through some brain/VR films. ​ Interesting,​ trippy movie. ​ Hearing the three main cast were oscar winners made me look out Charly and watch that next.
   * [[wp>​Heartbreak Ridge]] (1986)   * [[wp>​Heartbreak Ridge]] (1986)

   * [[wp>The Matrix Ressurrections]] (2021) - I went to the cinema to see this on the release day.  It's the only movie I've seen in the cinema (or plan to see) in the past year or two.  I thought the movie was alright, I was a bit disappointed. ​ I wanted it to be more cerebral - both in dialogue and actual plot, but it was pretty simple. ​ Oh well, nice to get another installment,​ but not a patch on the original (or the complexity of the second/​third).   * [[wp>The Matrix Ressurrections]] (2021) - I went to the cinema to see this on the release day.  It's the only movie I've seen in the cinema (or plan to see) in the past year or two.  I thought the movie was alright, I was a bit disappointed. ​ I wanted it to be more cerebral - both in dialogue and actual plot, but it was pretty simple. ​ Oh well, nice to get another installment,​ but not a patch on the original (or the complexity of the second/​third).

   * [[wp>​Birdbox]] (2018) - This was okay, not a big fan of the ending.. could have been worse I suppose.   * [[wp>​Birdbox]] (2018) - This was okay, not a big fan of the ending.. could have been worse I suppose.
-  * [[wp>A Quiet Place]] (2018) - Decent, suspenseful movie. 
-  * [[wp>​Venom]] (2018) - Interesting,​ will watch more of this character.

   * [[wp>The Christmas Chronicles]] (2018) - Watched this with Naomi just after we got our Christmas tree up.  I enjoyed it.  It think it might be a Christmas move that lasts. ​ Kurt Russell was great as Santa.   * [[wp>The Christmas Chronicles]] (2018) - Watched this with Naomi just after we got our Christmas tree up.  I enjoyed it.  It think it might be a Christmas move that lasts. ​ Kurt Russell was great as Santa.
