Run Sweetheart Run (2020)
After what seems to be an innocent date, Cherie now faces a night of terror when her date hunts her down and tries to kill her. She now must run for her life throughout the city and escape his grasp.
My thoughts: Ponderous, predictable, and pedantic, this movie delivers its social commentary with all the subtlety of a bludgeoning. And then it takes a supernatural turn and really goes off the rails.
1.5/5
Barbarian (2022)
A woman staying at an Airbnb discovers that the house she has rented is not what it seems.
My thoughts: A fantastic first act is ultimately squandered by a disappointing third act hinging on a reveal far less clever than its brilliant set-up.
3.5/5
The Menu (2022)
A young couple travels to a remote island to eat at an exclusive restaurant where the chef has prepared a lavish menu, with some shocking surprises.
My thoughts: A delicious send-up of the gourmand scene, skewering shows like Chef’s Table, celebrity chefs, avant-garde cuisine, and culinary influencers.

What’s everyone planning for today? Rain coming in today, so it might be nap day for me.
Hi Joe. You forgot the rating of The Menu 🙂
Fixed!
