 Fucking brilliant. These guys started out not giving a fuck, and still don't.

 I'm not the biggest Gwar fan in the world, but this is really well done. Looks like a lot of fun to have been in the band, and completely chaotic all around, while still being commercially viable enough for band members to make a living.

 Wow. Thoroughly recommend this. Excellent documentary. There's interviews with a lot of the people who were there, right back to the 50s, and of course, the soundtrack is brilliant.

 Mostly meh. Battle scenes were too choreographed, and the story is about as deep as a zit.

 I thought there was no way this could be as good as people made it out to be... It is. Excellent movie, and it goes without saying, a brilliant soundtrack

 More self-referential than ever. It seems to be constantly taking the piss of itself. Somehow manages to be a return to form for the series.  I did not care for the first one at all and wasn't going to watch this, but reports sounded promising and it turns out that this is everything the first one should have been.

 A lot better than I thought it would be. Original writer and director Geoff Murphy's son Matt wrote and directed. It's modernised and updated, and doesn't follow the original story exactly, but that's OK. Still lots of fun.

My final two movies watched in 2022:
 War film from Hammer. Pretty solid, more drama than action based. A film that makes you think a bit.  This was a lot of fun and I would say it is better than the original film - which I do quite like but the flying sequences are extra stunning here.

 Political thriller, albeit done satirically. Great cast led by Jeff Bridges, with supporting roles from quite a number of notables right up to Toshiro Mifune.  A dreamy little film that was the first starring role for Dennis Hopper. Some vibes of Carnival of Souls.  From the writer-director of In Bruges and reuniting its stars, this is a much more low-key dark comedy set against the backdrop of the Irish Civil War, about when one man abruptly ends his friendship with the other.

 Why the fuck did I watch this? Nothing wrong with the movie, it's just the subject matter...

 This was great! Daniel Craig's southern accent isn't quite convincing, but everything else is brilliant.

 Not seen this in a long time. Excellent ensemble cast, and a silly but fun plot. Never takes itself too seriously.

 Low key and quirky, but the music is good fun.
