Black Mirror s7 — watched it cuz of episode one’s Pumpfun reference; overall the season’s episodes were better than I expected, and Hotel Reverie was easily my favorite wrt premise and plot
Devil May Cry — new Netflix anime based on a popular manga; fun romp, very shonen, the depiction of humanoid demons is the best part; lots of cool fight scenes, although Dante is a bit OP and his arrogant sarcastic shtick gets a bit old
MobLand — watched 4 eps — Tom Hardy carries the show; a darker more serious version of The Gentlemen; plenty BTS of UK organized crime if you like that; Helen Mirren is great; not enough propulsive action or “why should I care” to maintain interest; found many if not most of the characters actively dislikable, need more redeeming qualities methinks
Remember — good movie about an old Korean man seeking revenge against Korean collaborators of the Japanese occupation; nice twist on the buddy movie due to the large age gap which they make work
Lioness — finished the season; very good — even-handed, focused storytelling; a female spin on the deep undercover agent + their handler relationship; female operatives + Middle East theater = automatic high stakes; great action, cast, and writing; highly recommended!
