The 150 Movie Challenge - 2018

Post by Strontium Dog » Mon Jan 08, 2018 5:27 pm

Right, I'm definitely completing this this year. In fact I plan to spend much longer in all realms of fantasy - visual, aural and textual - because reality is just so damn depressing.

All marks out of 4: if it was good enough for Maltin and Ebert, it's good enough for me.

1) Wonder Woman - ***½
2) Star Wars: The Last Jedi - ***½
3) The Babadook - ***
