Covid finally caught up with me and I'm going to be living like a hermit for the next 2 weeks. It's been a stressful month here so I'm looking to melt my brain (or at least the bits covid hasn't already melted). I'd love to check out your easy watching, good time having, feel good suggestions!

This is an engaging & novel sci fi, filmed in one location, a Japanese cafe, using what appears to be a single shot for all 70 minutes.

It has comedy, romance, violence, action, and an utterly novel sci fi concept. All in 70 minutes.

I haven’t watched as many films from this year as I would like. But here’s my current Top 5:

1. Top Gun: Maverick
2. Happening
3. Ambulance
4. The Bad Guys
5. The Black Phone

The ones that will most likely stay in my top 10 at the end of the year are 1-3. Most of my yearly favorite films come out at the end of the year as you can see by this list that only contains two movies released earlier in the year.

And really quickly I’ll give you my most anticipated films for the rest of the year:

1. Glass Onion: A Knives Out Story
2. Avatar: The Way of Water
3. Babylon
4. Amsterdam
5. The Fabelmans
