'Wonder Woman 1984' - Joe's Take

Despite a year long delay due to the pandemic WW84 is sadly a disappointing sequel that takes on too much and pulls very little off.

'Borat: Subsequent Moviefilm' - Joe's Take

With big shoes to fill, it sadly doesn't pack the same punch as the first film but is still worth a watch on your Amazon Prime subscription.

'Midsommar' - Joe's Take

It is confidently in control of what it is doing differently to other films in the genre and should be watched by everyone for doing so.
