Film Review: The Happening
Effective opening, then takes a quieter approach. Short and tight. Full of tropes which makes it amusing. Some hate it but is not a bad mild sci-fi horror-thriller.

Film ● Review: Once Upon a Crime
Fairy tale–inspired crime comedy. Not bad but under-developed and fails to move on after hitting its beats so it loses energy.

Mockumentary Film ● Review: Get Ready to be Boyzvoiced
Highly recommended mockumentary about a Norwegian boy band. Tightly written. Good performances. Hilarious songs. A modern classic.

Manga ● Review: Junji Ito’s Cat Diary – Yon & Mu
Horror parodies of Ito’s experience with his wife and two cats. Drawn in his usual style. Moderately amusing, not to be taken too seriously.

Film Review & Discussion: Starship Troopers
Militaristic society. War. Controlled media. Brainwashed population. Limited participation in governance and politics. It’s all good!
