A quirky young woman crushes on a weird artsy guy.

This is quirkier than it's characters, and is worthy of earning seventeen times its budget.

A top-down bullet hell game with character and item variation. This would have been great in the early 90s arcades.

It's good/meh. Not really for me.

John Wick returns to alternately ruin and end his friends lives in the hopes of leveraging an obscure rule to free himself from .. whatever their assassins society is called.

It's adequate, but has nowhere near equality: I think one unimportant woman dies on-screen and then the body vanishes, another gets hurt, and this has to be the most brutally misandrist movie I've ever seen. Feminist approved!
