Is not a number, he's a free man. But at this point none of that really matters because all I really used this account for is posting film reviews. So enjoy.

@OWCavalry This is your best colab yet. I love it. But where's my best boi Hangyodon? (Tank skin please and thanks 😘)

#AvatarFireAndAsh finally got me to care about the series' characters and I quite enjoyed it. The narrative is clunky, long and generally weak, just like in the first 2, but the character relationships/interactions are much better. And the action is pretty. #weeklyfilmthoughts

#TheRunningMan is a bit all over the place. It has some good sequences but each feels removed and discreet from those around it. Which makes the whole pretty disjointed. It feels like it could have been much tighter and ended in a more satisfying way. #weeklyfilmthoughts

#WakeUpDeadMan is ok but I found myself losing interest in the plot at times. Usually I'm a fan of the whodunnit genre and really like the previous Knives Out films but in this case I found myself not really caring who the killer was by the end. #weeklyfilmthoughts

I think #Christy might be one of the saddest films I have ever seen. It's just depressing from beginning to (almost) end. It isn't bad though and tells an important story. A strong relationship drama with a boxing backdrop. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

The world and creature design of #PredatorBadlands is great but it's very silly and clearly takes a "story last" approach to film-making. I had a good time and the action is cool, so it works but it's paper thin in depth. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

#Bugonia is excellent. Just from a film making perspective it's worth seeing and the sound design is brilliant. As a drama-thriller it really worked for me and it is one of those films you just want to talk about as soon as you come out of the cinema. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

#OneBattleAfterAnother is pretty disappointing. It's well acted and there is some great cinematography. Particularly is some of the framing. But it just completely failed to hold my interest or make me care for what was happening. It just didn't feel right. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

#TronAres is silly. It's quite enjoyable and Evan Peters is excellent but try not to think about anything that is actually happening. The relationship between the 2 main characters doesn't really work but its fun and there are lots of references for TRON fans. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

#TheLongWalk is very good. It feels unique even within the survival game genre. Its premise is straightforward and the world and background are incredibly vague but the drama and characters are compelling regardless, and it makes for a really engaging journey. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

Everyone who worked on it definitely aced this assignment. Especially whoever did the credit crawl. It's phenomenal.

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

#CaughtStealing is smartly written, well acted and nails the grungy vibe it's going for. It does a great job of making everything mean something to the story and whilst it's a little larger than life it always feels grounded and real within its own world. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

#Weapons is weird. It's quite good but is too long and fairly inconsistent. It starts with an interesting mystery and some decent tension, then moves on to some decent horror and anxiety moments. But for the last 30 minutes or so I just found it kinda funny. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

#TheNakedGun is ok. I had fun and there were a fair number of funny moments. The script is fine but the actual "jokes" don't always land. The visual and physical humour is much better though and they make up for some of the weaker bits. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

@NewRockstars Honestly, she was the only interesting character in the film for me. Shame she wasn't more of a focus.

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

I wasn't super impressed by #TheFantasticFourFirstSteps it just didn't entertain me much. It's dramatic but I didn't connect with it emotionally. Equally, it had some nice, light-hearted moments but I didn't have much fun. It's just kinda ok. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

#SupermanMovie is good fun but very chaotic. The character, casting and performances are all fantastic but the plot is a bit all over the place. It also has some issues with undercutting itself in serious moments. Still an enjoyable time. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

When #F1TheMovie is good it is excellent. It's a bit too long, there are some rough patches and it stalls a couple of times but never crashes out. It has real charisma and I found myself really invested in both the relationships and the action. Great stuff. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

#JurrasicWorldRebirth is pretty good when the characters aren't walking and talking and repeating the same exposition over and over. It's a classic blockbuster. The set pieces are mostly tense and exciting, and it's full of Jurassic Park tropes. #weeklyfilmthoughts

[Jayms @Jayms_Wisdom]

So hear me out. #kpopdemonhunters is really good actually. It's pretty daft and very T for teen but it has real heart and a solid emotional hook. The songs and animation are also good, and the humour lands very well. There are holes for sure but it's good fun. #weeklyfilmthoughts
