On a Fun, but Bumpy, Road with Onward
While the film didn’t hit me as emotionally as I wanted it to, I still enjoyed it. I simply wish there was a little more, particularly with the world building.
Jōmon ni hamaru hitobito
Jomon Period. This word that even elementary school students know if they are Japanese. However, the more I know the actual situation, the more mysteries there are ... In fact, most of them are mysteries. Although there are a huge number of strange shaped objects such as clay figurines that seem to support the theory of aliens flying to Earth, what they are, even now in the 21st century. It's still a mystery without anyone reaching the truth. The film approaches the core of its secrets through interviews with archaeologists, cultural figures, artists, and those who are passionate about the Jomon period.

Amazon Prime's Pretty Lethal: Makes No Sense, Is No Fun
I write for a diversity-focused film review blog, so I’ll be honest: I really wanted to like Pretty Lethal. Starring Maddie Ziegler, Lana Condor, Iris Apatow, Avantika, and Millicent Simmonds, Amazon Prime’s new thriller seemed like it would be a girl power movie about dancers with a horror action twist. Sort of a Suspiria for teens. But with shallow and unlikeable characters, a confusing plot, an overreliance on violence, and cringey dialogue, any fun the movie started out with was quickly lost. What was left was a faint echo of greater horror movies about dancers made before.
