Anime Review: No. 6
Intriguing utopian-dystopian premise and setting in which the boy has to leave the utopian city and go underground. Well-produced but the plot lacks substance and is somewhat bland.

Film Review: Bullet Train Explosion
Decent production and solid performances. Tension and suspense are not bad but plateaus later. As a cheesy action thriller, it is enjoyable enough even though it could use at least one more set piece.

Anime Review: Moonrise
Earth vs Moon rebels. Starts well enough but worldbuilding and structure are not quite right. Overly ambitious and unfocused.

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.

K-drama ● Review: Hellbound Season 2
Plot-driven, focused on human and material aspects with the supernatural taking a backseat. Entertaining and, intended or not, even comical.

Film ● Mini-Review: Agent Game
Starts strongly enough. Relies on the cast to hold it together. Final act could use better writing and way better execution. Meh.

Film Review: Captive State
Crude sci-fi depiction of current state of affairs. Not subtle. Clumsy structure (in a way) but maintains tension. Moderately interesting.

Drama Review: 24: Legacy
Decent pacing but derivative. Needs more convincing firefights. Solid performances mask the cheesiness. Still entertaining and funny.
