Robin Hood: Men In Tights

A surprisingly modern parody that feels in more in line with British fare like Monty Python than contemporary American humour, and that's definitely a positive thing.

Now You See Me

A completely mindless yet enjoyable romp; if only the tricks were real.

The Watcher in the Shadows

An at times terrifying and macabre tale with nuanced and likeable characterisation and a great, descriptive writing style. At once both a book that aims too low in its intended target audience and wildly overshoots it.

The Sisters Brothers

Interesting Western with good characters, a competent plot and some very off formatting choices and narrative gimmicks. Distinctly meh.

The House of Silk

A solid entry to the Baker Street archives and a very enjoyable mystery.

Episode VIII: The Last Jedi

A beautifully different entry into the Star Wars franchise which will hopefully see the sequels grow into something unique and much more interesting than might otherwise have been.

Stephen Fry In America

An interesting-enough overview of all the things that being "American" can mean, though ultimately the format (and time) was clearly too restrictive and the writing lacks the level of intellectual introspection that makes Fry so much fun. Decent, but hardly essential, and very cursory in places.

The Punisher

The MCU's grimdark, broody antihero gets a definitive take thanks to Netflix and the excellent Joe Bernthal. Season one comes highly recommended.

Zootopia

A film all kids need to watch and which most adults would benefit from as well. Beautiful story crafting and brilliant characters. An instant classic.

Mulan

Still a brilliant story with a moral underpinning that remains incredibly relevant. A children's classic that is well enough made to be enjoyable for anyone.
