Ryan Coogler's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever - 4/5
FUN FACT: Throughout its 161 minute runtime, the film has an extremely blurry visual presentation. This is due to the fact that I refused to stop crying, so my eyes couldn't see shit.

The Menu: 4/5

Wonderful twisted dark comedy, easily one of the best of the year.

Rian Johnson's Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery - 4/5

ඞ Netflix was the Imposter (for not giving this a proper theatrical release).

PS: I know this review seems dumb, but watch the movie first.

Question
I thought Knives Out was over-rated would I enjoy this more or just avoid it?

This film isn't as satirical as the first one, but it leans more into general comedy. Don't get me wrong, it has it's satirical moments, but it isn't as heavy as the first. It's different enough that I think you should give it a shot.

Ryan Coogler's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever - 3.5/5

So I just re-watched Wakanda Forever (with mum this time), and I still think it's good, but I felt like this doesn't work well on rewatch. I still think it's the best it could've been considering the circumstances, but there is also a lot of fat that could've been cut out.

2D - glorious to look at with an OK storyline but filled with cliched dialogue, some of which won't age well (like dude, bro, etc).

If Cameron had passed on directing the film to some unknown I wouldn't have bothered.

I was shocked that there was only one other person in the cinema. How to they stay in business?

Everybody else would be in the 3D screenings.

Saw in 3D HFR, James Cameron did not disappoint, absolute visual spectacle. Really enjoyed the story with the additions of the new characters and new part of Pandora. Really looking forward to what the sequels deliver. One thing is that I was not much a fan on the use of HFR, felt too much like a video game cut scene when it was used.

I really wanted to go this weekend, but my parents/older siblings all want to go together.
On the flip side, I am willing to wait since it means I'll get to see it in IMAX 3D instead of Real D 3D.

Really would love to see it in IMAX, alas the Sydney one is still in construction. Taking a trip down to Melbourne in the new year for a week so hopefully it is still being shown then.

Where is the new IMAX in Sydney being built?

I'm pretty sure it's in the same location as it used to be, but its just been going through some renovations.
