The King's Man (2021)
Expected a meh upgrade over the last movie, got a show and a half!
This movie had no right being this good. Yes, there are a few (3) scenes in the movie which are just weird and don't belong and a single (1) instance of really notieable CGI, but that's where complaints end.

Like watching two movies forcefully squished into one
While the movie was indeed visually beautiful, almost stunning even, I was left disappointed and annoyed, feeling like I watched 2 movies squeezed into one. I won't give away any plot points: Through the movie we watch the main character's past and present events unfold. However, the past could've been a standalone film, the present as well. The two segments weren't connected by a single detail almost to the very end of the movie, and even then that detail is so minuscule and irrelevant we could've easily gone without it.
When it comes out on DVD, I'd watch it again, selectively watching just scenes from the past, then just scenes from the future, treating myself to 2 movies, instead of a forced ONE movie.
Sennen joyû (2001)
Incredible!
This is one of the best movies I have ever seen. It tells the story in an unusual way, through memories and live events. The story. The characters. The plot development. The dramatic ladder and decline. As a whole, it left me speechless. I'm not usually a fan of movies that revolve around romance, but this one stunned me. I'm not a person to shed a tear, nor have I ever for a movie, but watching this I found my eyes watering. I was not expecting the movie to be this good after just reading reviews and hearing about it from others. I don't think it can be described well enough. You can only watch it! I would strongly recommend this film to everybody. Doesn't matter if you like or dislike animation, or foreign movies, this is a must-see!
