From the design of the creatures to specific narrative choices and its relative freedom of interpretation, this film clearly stands out from much of what dinosaur cinema has had to offer in recent years.

The animation is flawless, and the film is brimming with references and nostalgic nods, but in this third Minions-centered film (the seventh Minions film overall) surprises have become extinct.

Despite a few Robin Hood-esque touches, this film is a rock-solid historical drama that relies noticeably less on the clichés of its genre than it probably could have gotten away with.

The absence jump scares, the lack of pacing and a central metaphor make this film a contender for a post-horror hit. Unfortunately, creative decisions undermine any prospect for success.

A buddy comedy with a fast-paced rhythm and well-choreographed fight scenes, which only hits a few lulls when it tries too hard to be funnier than necessary—which, fortunately, happens only rarely.

I started doing a list on Letterboxd of movies I own and then went and completely forgot id started doing it! It may take some time to add all my DVDs and Blu-rays to the list now, still may be worth doing it though 🤔
