Rolling Stone's 98th greatest album of all time
I was supposed to listen to each album from RS's top 500 once through and review. I had to listen to this one again, it was just brilliant. Lipstick Vogue, Radio Radio, Pump It Up, ... Chelsea, and a whole host of songs just as good. Absolutely fantastic album.

"Like Lynch, I chose to go with another pair of career milestones. Blood Simple put the Coen brothers (and cinematographer Barry Sonnenfeld) on the map with their unique visual style and storytelling and remains one of the greatest film debuts ever. And Llewyn Davis shows that even three decades later, Joel and Ethan can still top themselves."

"A classic. Everything is perfect. On top of its incredible cinematography and mise en scène, I think it’s the story that attracts me to it. I love the idea that the hero is a huge asshole. And I cry every time his son falls off of his horse. That’s maybe why I never rode a horse."

"This book entertained me during a pregnancy. It’s set in the a small English village in the 1930s and is a battle of wit and wills between two women. It’s all fetes and musical soirées and fighting tooth and nail to be top dog. LOL, as they say. My baby got jiggled for days on end with my laughter."

Better than expected
I enjoyed it, I don't want to read too much into it as I liked the first film, but it's pretty much the same thing. I'd recommend it and would watch it again but it's not in the top 10 action films.

After watching the mess that was dark phoenix a few days ago,rewatching this was a timely reminder of how a comic book movie should be done.

This was a sequel that improved immensely on the original.A brilliant storyline,a bad guy who you could really hate and some top notch special effects.A classic

I liked the first volume of this and will be starting volume 2 ASAP. I just felt like our main female character went a little over the top at times with her reactions, hence the three star instead of four, but I still kinda like her. He seems pretty cool.

Off to start the second one now.
