The Interpreter 2005 ★★★
A solid thriller based on a good idea. Though not as solid as I remember it being.
Sean Penn has the gruff cop down, even though it makes his line about forgettable faces a bit funny. And Nicole Kidman is solid as the titular interpreter, with the many meaningfull whistful gazes and more to her than meets the eye.
Still interesting for thriller fans, mind you.
Pearl 2022 ★★★
Pearl may not entirely live up to the hype, but it was overall entertaining. You can sense the obsession and the nobody will stop me sense lurking underneath the surface. Resulting in good kills. Pearl is ruthless, no doubt about that.
Still an okay watch, though. And Mia Goth has the psycho gaze down pretty good.
