Top Gun: Maverick (2022)
Danger Zone!
Going to the movie theater has been one of those things for me recently where I am truly conflicted. The convenience of sitting at home and enjoying from the comfort of your place is so nice. However, this film made me feel like I was 10 years old again and made me wonder why I'm not seeing more films in the theater. I got goosebumps a few times and it is one of those experiences you simply don't want to end. One of those rare occasions where people clap, families aren't arguing but talking about their favorite parts, and everyone walks out of the theater with a smile on their face. A push to bring more of our American woes and political issues on screen has been dreadful and films like this that allow us to escape from reality for just a couple of hours make it all worth it. Tom Cruise is the man and deserves all the praise for this project. Mach 10/10 baby!
Animal Kingdom: Trust the Process (2021)
Restless Repercussions
This episode was a wild ride in both the present and the past. Shawn Hatosy did an excellent job in recapturing the more ominous and gritty themes from prior seasons and tying them into the current season with this episode. I would be annoyed if there wasn't hesitance working with Frankie but she and the Cody's seem to be running out of options with their acquaintances. Finally, the chemistry between J and Pope is the best of the group. Their relationship is beyond complex and seeing that tension on screen is extremely satisfying. I felt this season lost a lot of value splitting the boys up for a good chunk but there is nothing better than when they are all on the same page. Looking forward to seeing a new unified front in this next job.
Archer: Robot Factory (2020)
Physical Therapy!
I've been an Archer fan since the beginning and while the last few seasons were entertaining, I felt they had lost some of the original feel. This season has been electric thus far! Flipping the Archer/Barry relationship was genius and proved to be one of the best episodes of the entire show. I for one can't wait until Wednesday..Wait I had something for this.
