No One Will Save You (2023) follows an exiled anxiety-ridden homebody who must battle an alien who's found its way into her home. This film has a slow start, but by the end I found it to be very enjoyable. Despite the inconsistent pacing, the film manages to build up tension with impressive sound design, and a great performance from the lead.
One of the film's strongest points is the cinematography. The movie uses great mood lighting, paired well with strong colour palettes and nice camerawork that make for a lot of pretty shots. I love the creature design as it's fairly simple yet extremely eerie and reminiscent of Lovecraftian imagery. Additionally, the CGI looks good and is used tastefully along with some very skilful editing.
The sound design is unbelievably effective and creates such an unnerving and spooky atmosphere. The sound is also mixed well, and the score is very fitting. Furthermore, I really like the creative decision to have minimal dialogue in the film as it adds to the sense of mystery.
Kaitlyn Dever gives an outstanding performance as Brynn, she shows so much raw emotion and her character has an impressive level of depth making it easy to sympathise with her. She's an extremely mysterious character that I enjoyed following along. Also, the one line of dialogue was so hard hitting and emotional!
The film is hard to stick with at first and takes a while to get going, but it quickly picks up in the second half and I grew to really enjoy it. It has some predictable moments but they're played off so well that it isn't really that much of an issue. My main problem with the film is that the aliens are revealed way too quickly, destroying any mystery surrounding them.

The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar (2023) follows a man who is able to see through objects and predict the future with the help of a book he stole. This is such a fun watch. The cinematography is gorgeous, as expected from a Wes Anderson film, and the acting is great. I do wish it was a bit longer though!
Wes Anderson films are visually unmatched, and this is no different! Every shot is gorgeous with beautiful, warm colour palettes that contrast each other well. The framing is also impressive paired well with impeccable and heavily detailed set design. Additionally, I really love the character costume design.
The film features subtle sound design, which works most of the time but there isn't much to say about it. The sound definitely adds to the overall vibe but isn't overwhelming, and the score itself is fitting to the tone of the film.
The best thing about this short is the acting and characters. The cast is an intimate group of famous actors that all feel perfect in their roles. Every character is weirdly quirky and loveable in their own way, thanks to the flawless writing and performances. I particularly like Richard Ayoade, he perfectly suits the Wes Anderson vibe and I hope to see more of him in future Anderson films.
Lastly, the film sets the plot up well, and is very fast paced and witty. The storytelling is flawless and includes good use of narration, creating an engaging and heartwarming story all can enjoy. The ending wraps things up nicely, and leaves the audience feeling satisfied.

Totally Killer (2023) follows the infamous "Sweet Sixteen Killer" who returns 35 years after his first murder spree to claim another victim, when 17-year-old Jamie accidentally travels back in time to 1987 determined to stop the killer before he can start. This film is a fun and easy watch but lacks a lot of depth. The cinematography is good and the characters are likable. However, the writing is somewhat cringeworthy and there's nothing in terms of sound design.
The film has some pretty cinematography and good mood lighting, with bright colour palettes capturing the style of the 80s. Also, the costume design is accurate to the time which I really liked! However, the movie uses quite a lot of CGI which unfortunately is very poorly done resulting in some scenes looking laughably unrealistic.
The sound design is extremely underwhelming and adds nothing to the experience of watching. The score is also rather forgettable but luckily picks up in the last 10 minutes, showing a lot of potential. The soundtrack itself includes some cool tracks but I definitely expected more.
The cast do a good job for the most part, but there are a few performances that feel rather patchy and it is distracting at times. Kiernan Shipka is great as Jamie and very fun to follow along, her character is rather cliché but this didn't matter too much. The scriptwriting is okay, but some of the dialogue is extremely cringeworthy and the humour is very hit or miss for me.
Unfortunately, I feel the plot isn't set up well and the time travel concept feels very forced in as it lacked depth and explanation. Although, it still makes for an entertaining watch and is easy to follow along. It doesn't take itself too seriously and has steady pacing with somewhat unexpected twists and a cute cheesy ending.
