My kids are going through a full-on Pokémon phase at the moment, which means every spare evening involves trading cards, video games, and, apparently, me sitting down to rewatch things I probably should have left well alone. That's how I ended up revisiting Pokémon the Movie: Mewtwo

Let me be honest with you: I walked into Project Hail Mary fully prepared to be disappointed. The early critic chatter was dominated by how "cute" and "funny" Ryan Gosling's companion was, and that framing had me bracing for some kind of cosmic Disney

There's a particular kind of pressure that comes with sitting down to watch a film that half your friends have handed a perfect score. Scrolling through Letterboxd and seeing Elem Klimov's 1985 war epic sitting proudly as one of the highest-rated films of all time,
