Yeah, it's available for free on Amazon Prime.

I fell in love with Samantha Morton in the title role when I saw this movie for the first time 20 years ago. 8.5/10

Godzilla Minus One 9.5/10 (IMAX)
Loved, loved it.... One of my favorite films from quite a while. Amazing what a such a low budget can do.

Also amazing what focusing on a good story with good characters can do as well.

rebel moon - 5/10 - pains me to give it that score as a zach snyder fan but this was all flash no substance, had the makings for a decent movie but they went about it the wrong way
transformers: rise of the beasts - 5/10 - theyre not doing a very good job separating themselves from the bay movies. aside from optimus, arcee and the maximals the robot designs were terrible. they should get away from this slapstick humor and go back to their roots and focus on what made the original cartoon so appealing for all audiences and not just kids
gran turismo - 8/10 - pretty good! i was always more of a nintendo / xbox guy growing up so i never played the game (forza was as close as i got) but its a solid racing flick. i think the fact that its based on a true story gave it a little more weight

The Apartment (1960) - A Manhattan insurance clerk tries to rise in his company by letting its executives use his apartment for trysts, but complications and a romance of his own ensue.
Excellent screenplay and acting here by an ace cast. Throw in Christmas and the New York City setting and it's not surprising that it became one of my top ten movies which I now watch annually. 10/10

The Creator (2023) - Against the backdrop of a war between humans and robots with artificial intelligence, a former soldier finds the secret weapon, a robot in the form of a young child.
It's a slick-looking film that moves quickly, but I found some of the plot points to be problematic. The script could have been more sophisticated in some areas. 6.5/10
