Obliterated (2023)
Fun
Is it the greatest piece of modern film ever created? No. But it's more than fair to say it's a fun movie to just switch your brain off and watch. It have a good level of action and pacing to keep you entertained with interesting and fluid fight scenes. It also manages to cover some deeper topic such as the loss of a loved one and father-daughter relationships, while still maintaining a mostly fun and "lighthearted" tone. There are some graphic scenes but they don't contribute much to the plot and you could skip them if you so want. I would recommend to anyone that likes action films and doesn't want a story that need too much thinking.
Jung_E (2023)
Honestly mid
The movie starts of well and has gripping action from the start, the action sequences are some of the most exciting and edge of your seat combat with some cool ethical theorys as well as the morality of ai consciousness but it's structured very poorly. The exposition is thick and fast leaving you little time to really let sink in what has just been said. The action is also condensed into 3 or 4 blocks that while great, serve as little reward for the exposition you sit through to get to that point. While the ideas explored inside are definitely interesting and a great movie could be built on their premise the movie get slightly lost in itself with the amount of detail pushed into what is ultimately quite a short movie. It's a good watch when you can find nothing else but I would say it is a fall back on, rather than searching out.
