    Mandy

    Directed by Panos Cosmatos. With Nicolas Cage, Andrea Riseborough, Linus Roache, Ned Dennehy. The enchanted lives of a couple in a secluded forest are brutally shattered by a nightmarish hippie cult and their demon-biker henchmen, propelling a man into a spiraling, surreal rampage of vengeance.

    I watched this immediately after ‘Colors Out of Space’ because I was expecting ‘Mandy’ to be more of a revenge thriller, but it was not. It was more mind bending insanity with Nicolas Cage slowly going insane after his lover is taken from him by a cult.

    Enjoyable, but weird as fuck.

    Jojo Rabbit

    Directed by Taika Waititi. With Roman Griffin Davis, Thomasin McKenzie, Scarlett Johansson, Taika Waititi. A young boy in Hitler’s army finds out his mother is hiding a Jewish girl in their home.

    The trailers and commentary about this movie before it was released seemed worried about the comedy and softening of Hitler, but what the movie turned out to be was so much more than I was expecting. Sure, Hitler is here, as played by Taika Waititi, but he’s what a 10 year old boy would imagine him to be. WW2 is happening in the background, but I’d argue that the war itself is less important than the family dynamic that’s happening with Jojo, his mom, the hidden Jewish friend, and Sam Rockwell’s character, all of them played straight, sometimes to a fault. The only one not being serious here is Rebel Wilson, who has some fantastic scenes that cracked me up.

    Star Trek Discovery The Way to the Stars

    An original novel based on the explosive new TV series Star Trek: Discovery!

    Despite being an inexperienced Starfleet cadet, Sylvia Tilly became essential to the U.S.S. Discovery finding its way back home from the Mirror Universe. But how did she find that courage? From where did she get that steel? Who nurtured that spark of brilliance? The Way to the Stars recounts for fans everywhere the untold story of Tilly’s past.

    It’s not easy being sixteen, especially when everyone expects great things from Tilly. It’s even harder when her mother and father are Federation luminaries, not to mention pressing her to attend one of the best schools that the Federation has to offer. Tilly wants to achieve great things-even though she hasn’t quite worked out how to do that or what it is she wants to do. But this year, everything will change for Tilly, as she about to embark upon the adventure of a lifetime-an adventure that will take her ever closer to the stars..

    A good book that I ultimately did not care for, but I’m not going to hold that against the author. I went in hoping for Star Trek action and adventure but instead got a coming of age story of a 16 year old girl that has inattentive parents. It was a fun story, but ultimate had nothing to do with Trek at all.
