Movies

Financial crisis explained like a heist movie, except the heist is legal and everyone gets away with it. You will learn and you will get angry.

Love story wearing a physics coat. It’s about time, illness, stubbornness, and the price of brilliance.

Jazz as violence. Practice as obsession. The drum solo is basically a fistfight with time.

A burned-out chef loses everything, buys a food truck, and drives across America with his only remaining friend and the son he'd been too absent to actually know. Turns out the kid is great, whoops. Jon Favreau wrote, directed, starred, and somehow wrote himself a sensual thing with Scarlett Johansson AND a marriage to Sofia Vergara. No notes. MY MAN!!!

Space, time dilation, crying, and a soundtrack that makes your chest vibrate. The science is serious, the feelings are louder, and the ending is a philosophical jump-scare.

Codebreaking, war pressure, and a man who changed history while being punished by the same society he saved. Infuriating and necessary.

A man who can relive any moment slowly figures out that the whole point is to stop needing to. Romantic, warm, and quietly one of the most useful movies ever made about how to actually live.

They're together now. It's real, it's lived-in, and it's hard. This is not the romance film. This is what comes after the romance film — a long argument in a hotel room that will make you deeply uncomfortable because it's too accurate. Still worth it.

Teen movie that looks soft, then punches you in the childhood, guts your trust in people and makes you realise one or two individuals might still be worth living. Friendship, trauma, healing, and a soundtrack that hurts in the best way.

Two men from different worlds become friends and accidentally re-teach each other how to live. Funny, warm, and annoyingly effective.

Spying without gadgets, explosions, or charisma bonuses. Everyone is tired, suspicious, and lying to everyone else. If James Bond is fantasy, this is the paperwork.

Baseball, but the real sport is fighting tradition with spreadsheets. If you like strategy, this is a thriller in disguise.
