The Eyes of Tammy Faye (2021) - makeup/prostheses on Jessica Chastain were distracting.
An Actor should be able to portray the character successfully without all of that. That's what they are paid for!
Until the title character gets into the real action at around 100 minutes, one is struck with what a boring movie, did I tune into a serious Brit boring drama? It's one redeeming grace is the surprising bare boob for a fraction of a second. Redeeming for it is quite unexpected.
There are familiar faces in the supporting cast and nice "angry young men" faces.
When it finally gets to the end, it is intense but getting there rather plods along. In the words of Treylane, Dalgliesh does have one redeeming feature after all, he's ill manner and hence, quite a pain. There is, however, one thing that is confusing......where did a chief superintendent get the cash to have a Porsche 944......well, maybe he used his wife's life insurance payoff.

Spin Me Round (2022)
I loved it. It was perfectly casted, fun story, perfect pacing, plenty of funny. And if you've seen The Art of Self Defense, you'll appreciate that the actor who played the psycho karate instructor in that movie plays a psycho in this movie too, and does it just as well.
Imdb says it is an hour, 41 minutes long, my DVD was an hour, 28 minutes long. I wonder if that is correct or if the additional footage would have helped for as bad as it was, it was rather tough to get through. The horror scenes are decent but the rest of the flick is insufficient to tie them together. Further, the trailer tells too much about the movie. A 3.0.
Pretty intense post doomsday sci fi teen flick, sort of a combination of the Lord of the Flies and the Minotaur from Myth. It is a teen flick but the plot's background, of high, impossible walls is like so many sci fi landscape paintings, that one can be drawn into by that alone. I bought it as a trilogy so I knew it was going to be "To Be Continued" but this one is rather complete so if one wanted to, they could stop here. A 6.8.

The Grey Man.
Stupid, unimaginative trash. Just a bunch of action movies cobbled together into yet another CGI abomination.
"Instead of a prisoner, you're now a secret agent man, with plausible deniability. Go do stuff, then get in trouble with your superiors, who are actually the real bad guys."
Well, at least the villains are well cast, from being positively evil to certainly saucy. It's a nice 90ish minute getaway though it might get a little confusing here and there to what the score is. A 5.5.
