Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, 2019 – 3/5

I am a big fan of the Fast & Furious movies, but they have their ups and downs. Hobbs and Shaw is kind of, boringly middling. Don’t expect a perfectly formed realistic story. Expect a bunch of crazy action scenes. Also a nice touch, while there were fancy cars at times, it definitely felt like it set itself apart from the main series by not really being a “car movie”.

Nightcrawler, 2014 – 4/5

Gyllenhaal does a great job at being a creepy and ambitious video journalist. One of the more notable aspects of this film is that there isn’t really a “hero character”. About the only thing that felt off was the weird romance subplot, though it’s not really present for the majority of the film.
