The Swimmers was good - the first half is harrowing.

The strongest TIFF opener in years, harrowing and inspiring by turns. Sally El Hosaini’s real-life drama of Syrian sisters Yusra and Sarah Mardini, who fled civil war in pursuit of an Olympic swimming dream, was the fist-pumper we needed to get the festival party started. It’s also a potent drama of the global tragedy of refugees; an aerial shot of a beach littered with abandoned life jackets will take your breath away.
Glass Onion - just ok for me. I thought Peg did it because she had no other reason to be in the movie.
