Wish You (2021)
Can't physically diss such a sweet movie.
Slow-moving, simplistic, uneven in places... but so incredibly sweet, with hints of genuinely interesting character backstories, and absolutely gorgeously shot & lit. The titular song is gorgeous too.
The Millionaire Tour (2012)
Not without flaws, but highly involving nonetheless.
An honestly very enjoyable film. Solid setup and acting from the start. Some mildly unfortunate colour and cinematic choices that leave the viewer unable to see everything they may wish to on a given shot, but it's only a slight issue. As I've seen several others say, Dominic Monaghan is the standout in terms of pure entertainment - the flashy, jovial villain role suits him well - but Jordan Belfi and Agnes Bruckner were also thoroughly enjoyable in their roles, doing well to bring out an audience's sympathy. I shan't spoil the ending, but I will say as of a first viewing it felt the weakest part simply for the lack of foreshadowing, as well as seeming to cut slightly short some of a previous scene's entertainment. But be that as it may, this is a film never unentertaining, with some interesting points worth thinking on. I have a feeling a second viewing would be a very different and interesting one.
