just another outsider, trying to fit int and ext on to the same page
Aside from a little trope fatigue in the third act, a pretty decent watch. It follows a formula for the most part but does a good job of merging the world of Kolkata (established in Kahaani) with the continental hotel of a John Wick. Thrown in with a track around a flourishing drug trade under […]
MoreTrashy fun. A notch below the surprise fun of the first. It’s a bit cartoonish, which makes it contrast to a lot of the other adaptations out there, but it’s also gory and brutal. It feels a bit of a confused symbiotic relationship, much like Eddie. source https://letterboxd.com/jun6lee/film/venom-let-there-be-carnage/
MoreMy nephew wanted to watch it, and I was more than happy to accept this mission once again! The best in the series after the first in my eyes. source https://letterboxd.com/jun6lee/film/mission-impossible-rogue-nation/2/
MoreWell of course it’s set “in the future”. The satire genius of this show prevails. Even if that’s not your jam, watch it just for Alexa. source https://letterboxd.com/jun6lee/film/south-park-post-covid/
MoreA supernatural thriller that’s eerie and chilling. A little indulgent in its execution, but I feel Edgar has earned that privilege. Sucked me into the world and although the cat was out of the bag for me a little earlier than it should have perhaps been, it worked nonetheless. I’m never complimenting a girl’s name […]

MoreTwists and turns that you see coming, yet just fun enough to be watchable. The A-listers too are easy on the eye. One does wish there was more to it than just being an international game of cops & robbers. source https://letterboxd.com/jun6lee/film/red-notice/
MoreA visual treat of the event-film kind although I’m getting a little bored of the template of it all. The saving grace is of course characters, the archetypes are still fresh with their banter, even if they are straight out of a dozen other Marvel films. The gold star cherry on top though is Tony […]
MoreEverything I expected to be and nothing more. Ticks the boxes of being current, relevant and shifting to a more woke culture while giving Craig-Bond the send-off he deserves in a spectacularly Hollywood blockbuster fashion. Within this also lies the rub. It does all this at the cost of the British rawness of what Casino […]
MoreEven before Fast Five, Dwayne was Faster! It’s a trope-fest, a lone man on a vengeful mission, but it works. I do feel that stories of this ilk, have little mystery in them and suffer even more when casting demystifies all, but it scratches the itch of the genre nonetheless. source https://letterboxd.com/jun6lee/film/faster-2010/
