Shin Godzilla (2016)

As someone who has barely seen any Godzilla movie, this was fantastic. A geopolitical thriller with pertinent modern themes, that happens to revolve around a titanic nuclear lizard trashing Tokyo. Looks great, pacey despite mostly being set in big empty rooms and good performances. Also, a really weird but cool re-design/re-interpretation of Gojira himself.
Rating: Very Good

I, Tonya (2017)

Strong performances, and effectively portrays the abuse and pain beneath a clusterfuck of arseholes and liars.
Rating: Good

Room (2015)

Brilliant, heartbreaking film. Full of really strong performances, perfectly paced, and intimately directed.
Rating: Great

Molly's Game (2017)

Prime Sorkin - everything feels a little too neat, but it's exhilarating, witty, propulsive, rousing, fuelled by great performances and subtle, solid direction.
Rating: Very Good

Blood and Bone (2009)

Typically impressive fight moves from Michael Jai White, and a fun performance from Eamonn Walker. But the flat, pedestrian direction, production design and cinematography are on a level with the average Buffy episode (though not with the good ones), and the script is a mess. There is one interesting element that comes in and out of the movie, which is that even the powerful city-running crime-lord has to grit his teeth through meetings with racist white arseholes as he makes power moves, though this is compromised by two things: firstly that when we meet this big racist consortium, the extras hired are more like a United Colors Of Benetton ad, and secondly what is also the biggest issue with the entire movie: White's character is never in jeopardy, never makes a wrong move, inside or outside the ring. When you're rooting for the psychopathic crime-lord, the movie's doing something wrong. (The notably humourless, brutal 'ha ha he's getting prison raped' credits scene doesn't help matters either.)
Rating: Bad

The Post (2017)

Stirring and propulsive, with some great performances. Spielberg does Sorkin.

Robot and Frank (2012)

Touching and funny, with a great performance by Langella.
