concur w/ maverick. a film that textually promised to be a return to the kind of big-budget action movie making that they don't do anymore, a celebration of movie stars and authenticity, yetcan't help itself to be marred by contemporary over-determined plotting and structure, and for all the honestly pretty cool footage of the actual planes, just dog shit cgi.
really captures none of the charm of the original.
Some I’ve seen relatively recently:
Top Gun Maverick
Fantastic Beasts, Secrets of Dumbledore
Percy Jackson, The Lightning Thief
Honorable mention to Malignant, except that Malignant is so bad that it’s actually amazing and I enjoyed every minute of it.
Edit: Oh also the new Thor movie sucks dick, which is really disappointing cause I usually love everything Taika Waititi makes
