The Menu was absolutely brilliant dark comedy horror thriller satire. Enjoyed every minute of it.
Anyone who’s a foodie and likes to laugh and themselves would enjoy.

Everything Everywhere All At Once was great. Second that recommendation.

This just hit U.K. Netflix this weekend. Mrs H and I just watched it. One of the highest recommendations I can give for a straight action movie in the Taken and Equalizer “older-dude-with-a-very-particular-set-of-skills-comes-out-of-retirement-to-fuck-up-some-bad-dudes” sub-genre.
But imagine those movies with the violence turned up to 11. And then add a bit more blood. Bob Odinkirk kicks some serious ass.
Edit: changed the trailer to one which spoils fewer of the fight scenes.

@Matt I think it snuck out during the pandemic, direct to whichever is Universal’s preferred streaming service. I get the feeling if theatres had been open it’d be a word of mouth hit.

I went to watch Oppenheimer on IMAX yesterday…great movie. Very intense ending. Cillian Murphy was superb in the main role, but for me Robert Downey Jr and Emily Blunt were even better. I can only recommend it and go watch on as big screen as possible.

I'm not Matt but Barbie was very good. Richard Brody's New Yorker Review says it better than I can but it is basically a great exploration of the limited political power of imagination boxed into an expertly directed cleverly paced piece of physical theatre. Gerwig smashed it again. Looking forward to seeing Oppenheimer in the next few days.

@Nik One of my mates was an extra in Barbie. Did a scene in which Margot Robbie bursts through a pair of double doors and run down a corridor make it into the final cut? My buddie says that he was dressed in a suit and walking down that corridor while MR runs past him.
