die hard with a vengeance (1995)

Even tho I have a soft spot for Bruce Willis' action comedy style of sardonic humor mixed with extreme violence, and even tho the third die hard movie is well paced and plotted and written (for a dumb action movie), there's something about it that just doesn't add up; the two leads have very little chemistry, maybe overall the movie just lacks heart.

Seeing Like a State by James C. Scott

This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.

I Saw The TV Glow (2024)

Creepy slow and artsy, well-acted altho some of the monologues and artistic choices tried a little too hard, overall just different  which I really appreciated, deep and heartfelt and not afraid of some discomfort.
