#Pillion is a BDSM romance that outdoes the entire Fifty Shades trilogy in one fell swoop. A low bar, sure, but this is still a really good movie.

It may not be quite as good as its predecessor, but #Zootopia2 still has enough furry goodness to go around.

#SisuRoadToRevenge is is essentially a gory Buster Keaton movie with Looney Tunes style physics. I want so many more of these films!

#Zootopia2 (aka Zootropolis 2) is Disney’s best animated film in years. The creativity and animal-centric jokes are front and centre, and while there’s less focus on the social commentary (and an all-too familiar type of villain) it’s a fun journey that families will love.

My review for #WickedForGood is finally live, and as someone who loved the first film I found this to be a near-perfect conclusion that enrichens the story rather than simply enlargens it.

Don’t give a damn about admitting I nearly choked up during #WickedForGood. Of course it’s not as good as Part 1 (then again the second half was always like that) but it’s emotional, thematically layered and beautiful to look at.

Review coming soon to @filmfeeder.bsky.social!

These movies are like Fast & Furious if Dominic Toretto and his crew decided to swap fast cars for magic wands... and I hope they make plenty more of them.
