Dream Scenario starring Nicholas Cage was good. Entertaining all the way through, well written and acted. These high concept allegory movies can often fall too much in love with being clever or making Big Statements, or they're either too on the nose or too confused about what they're actually saying, but this one worked very well. It's an easy watch, stays pretty light even when dealing with heavy topics, it's thought provoking but not preachy. An A24 film, for those who care.
Would recommend if the premise looks interesting to you. Essentially, this is a good version of the film promised in the trailer.
Also rewached Godfather 2. Still worthy of it's reputation, a fantastic film. I actually strongly prefer it over Godfather 1.
