Nosferatu. Everyone acts their socks off and it’s entertaining enough but the drama felt, I don’t know, a little overcranked? And I’d call it creepy rather than scary. I enjoyed it though.

And last night I rewatched The Transporter for the first time in years. It pains me to say it’s not as good as I remember. I don’t think I’d noticed how edited the fights are, sooo many cuts so it all seems so much faster than it is. And I love Jason Statham, his movies are reliably entertaining if a little formulaic, but his acting wasn’t great in this, I felt he came off a little wooden at times. I remember at the time finding Matt Schulze’s character a bit weird and he still is. What’s with stroking the envelope of cash? And had Ric Young had plastic surgery? Super weird looking. Anyway, even with all my complaints it’s still good fun.

Re: Nosferatu

I also liked the Transylvania bits, the crumbling castle especially.

I enjoyed the physicality of Lily-Rose Depp’s performance as not-Mina, although her overacting got on my nerves a bit.

I found the first portion of the film set in Transylvania very scary. Honestly I think it peaked around then and the rest of the film, although still good, never got close to reaching those heights.
