Movie and TV Reviews - June 2025

Movies and TV shows that Nancy and I watched in May. I do these posts mainly so I can keep track of what we've been watching, so the reviews are cursory. Now that baseball season has started, there will probably be fewer items here.

Movies

• Titanic: The Digital Restoration. A National Geographic documentary about the creation of a digital replica of the Titanic. I found it absolutely fascinating and it's remarkable what it revealed about the sinking. (Disney+)
• Predator: Killer of Killers. Three warriors from three different eras fight the Predators. Animated (and quite nicely done) but not for kids (extreme violence, natch). (Disney+)
• The Accountant: Autism as a superpower. Entertaining enough, but not very plausible. (Amazon Prime)
• The Accountant 2: This one veered into more standard action flick territory. Not as good as the first one. (Amazon Prime)

TV Shows

• The Last of US (season 2): I'm not sure it's quite as good as the first season, but it's equally grim. We can't handle more than one episode a night. (Crave/HBO)
• Injustice. A twisty and well-acted crime drama featuring a couple of lawyers and a rather unpleasant detective determined to get at the truth no matter what the cost. (Acorn TV)
• Hinterland (seasons 1-3), Another British police procedural, set in Wales. As we expected, it's on the grim side, but with good acting and well-written, twisty plots. It does go a bit too far with the troubled detective trope though,. (Acorn TV)
