Coming 2 America 2. 4/10, a big miss.
Billie Holiday vs. The United States 7/10. First half was very good, then it started to drag a bit.

Tenet - 5/10

"Tenet" makes "Interstellar" seem like child-play when it comes to concept(s) comprehension. I can only imagine what Christopher Nolan's first draft of the script read like.

I consider myself a Nolan fan. This was the tenth film of his that I've watched, and easily the least enjoyable. As a point of reference, "The Prestige" and "Memento" are probably my favorites.
My problem with "Tenet" is that you're spending so much time trying to grasp the time shifting concepts, it robs you of fully enjoying well shot sequences and awesome sound/score cues (hallmarks of Nolan films).

The acting was okay, but I had hoped for a more "cool" (totally subjective) persona from the Protagonist. I thought some parts of his character were better than the whole of his character.

I agree, I think he was trying to sooooo hard to make it a Nolan film as opposed to a great movie.

New Mutants - watchable but maybe a 5.5

Storyline was very minimal beyond introducing the characters and making reference to “Essex”

Saint Maud 7.5/10

Not as scary as i expected it to be. There was one moment that made me jump x10. I don't recall ever jumping that much during a movie. The story is unpredictable, and moves are reasonable pace.
If i were to sum Saint Maud up in three words, they might include 'mental - health' + 'religion'

Justice League (Theatrical Release) - 5/10

This was the first time I watched this since it first came out. About how I remembered it. Some good parts, but mainly very mediocre. Still better than BvS though. It will be interesting to see the differences between this one and the Snyder Cut.
