Guilty

Guilty has a polished look that somehow contradicts the message and I think misrepresents some of India's youth but I liked the actors and the message. It worked for me despite knowing it is not that good. 

Us

Us is a good horror film and I enjoyed it despite seeing the twist right away. Lupita N'yongo is a great actress. It is not as good as Get Out but still it worked for me.

Voice

Voice turned out to be a decent/average crime show. I like these kind of shows so I enjoyed myself but it is not really very good. I love Jang Hyuk and he is his usual good self. The other actors were all good. The show generally has a conservative and religious point of view but not hammer on the head type, more subtle. I liked the psycho evil baddie and his comeuppence was satisfying to watch. I also liked that the rot in the establishment is shown (a popular theme with Korean crime shows).

The Memory Police

The Memory Police is not the author's finest effort but it was still suitably bleak and readable. I did not really care for the reading performance but it is more because of my taste than it being bad.

Spirited Away

Spirited Away gets better with each viewing. I liked it even more this time.

My Neighbour Totoro

My Neighbour Totoro is such a beautiful and timeless film that gives pleasure at every single viewing. 

Kill Me, Heal Me

Kill Me, Heal Me turned out to be not really to my taste but of course I enjoyed it at an average level and shed some tears during some scenes. However the collagen job on the upper lip of the lead actress was most distracting. Seriously.
