The Fall Guy (2024)
Better than Dune! Excellent, imaginative, romantic comedy with polished action and filmed with incredible flair. David Leitch reminisces about his stunt years and inspires lots of little kids to get punched, smashed and knocked down, then deepfake them into the star of the film. Ryan Gosling in The Nice Guys mode and Emily Blunt in superwoman mode are having an incredible time, and the chemistry is conjuring unicorns before your eyes.
Asterix the Gaul (1967)
The now classic that introduced Asterix and Obelix to the television screen. It's not as elaborate and there's less subversive humour compared to the comics. It certainly doesn't have the quality of later sequels, but it's still solid entertainment where the simple antics of the Romans will keep the kids reliably amused.
Wish (2023)
The decline of male role models in fairy tales is sad, but what scares me here is more the overcomplication of motives leading to possession by evil. Yet the primary one - not fulfilling all wishes - is not satisfactorily explained. The attempt at realism thus comes up empty, and the kids just won't get it. Otherwise, the European Union, America and Russia's approach to government are mixed together in one fairy tale. Disney adds songs, animals and beautiful visuals. It's all quite mechanical, but in trying to be original it forgets that every good fairy tale needs heart rather than weird half-truths. Encanto was much better
