Watched White Noise last night on Netflix. I really enjoyed it though this movie is not for everyone. There was definitely a lot of homages to 1980s action/fantasy movies, which I loved, especially during the Airborne Toxic Event Chapter. Thought it did well to capture the consumer obsessed culture of the era as well with the supermarket scenes highlighted as a rainbow of colors. It's also just a movie that looks like an 80s movie as well which I really enjoyed. It is far from a perfect movie, somewhat disjointed at times, but I walked away entertained.
Also recently watched the Glass Onion. I don't share the same level of enthusiasm for the movie as others, I won't dissect it too much as I just think Rian Johnson's style just isn't for me.
The Menu was really entertaining, funny, thrilling, terrifying and just a compelling watch. Ralph Fiennes is, as usual, incredible. It does a good job of skewering the world of fine dining and the people and culture in its orbit. I recommend.
