  I like most anime I’ve seen, but this one took me 3 attempts to finish. 
  Not for me I guess

  Lightyear 2022

  Watched 24 Jun 2022

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  First movie my son has spoiled while i'm watching the movie with him (his second watch).

  "That lady.... she gets old and dies."

  Weirdly the feels hit me when he said that, vs. when it actually happened.

  Senna 2010

  ★★★★½ Watched 11 Mar 2012 1

  When Ayrton Senna describes winning a race like taking a powerful drug, you really believe him. Race after race, as he stands on the first place podium pouring champagne over himself, he has a look of pure ecstasy on his face. He loved Motorsport and he loved winning.
  His team doctor recollected Senna's humility being so rare amongst race drivers, and you can sense his personal and professional growth as the film progresses. It drew me in and left me gutted knowing where it ended.

  Aliens 1986

  ★★★★★ Watched 30 Oct 2011

  This movie is so great, I'm amazed I never saw it growing up. Modern action movies can't keep my attention like this one could, and this was the extended edition. I'm not sure what was left out in the theatrical cut, but each scene in this seemed essential.
  Also, now I finally understand the context of "they mostly come at night... mostly".
