The Housemaid, in theaters now.
Who is it for? Basic white bitches
Who is it also for? Men married to basic white bitches because arguing over a movie just ain't worth it.
The movie stars Sydney Sweeney's boobs attached to a down-on-her-luck 20-something who just needs a job. So, she hires on to be the title character for a rich family where everyone has their secrets. Also appearing are people you've seen before but don't know their names because you also don't care. Yes, you get to see Syd naked along with a few bouncing down the stairs shots. Absolute cinema.
Anyway, it is a thriller so it has the usual, if predictable, twists and turns. based on a book I don't care about from an author I've never heard of, the story is solid enough. Casting Sydney Sweeney's boobs was an excellent choice and those other people are good enough, I guess. Their kid is ugly though. "Porkchop around the neck for the dog to play with her" ugly.
Anyway, it is tolerable enough to keep you mildly entertained for the 2 hour runtime. Just go and keep her happy. Burn your capital on some other fight.
3 out of 5 gravy boats.

Corporate espionage thriller with a bit of violence thrown in. Didn't think I was going to finish but was pleasantly surprised.
Guy who helps whistleblowers is contacted by woman who has a "report" that would damage multi-billion dollar biotech company's IPO. Up against corporate spooks with all the gadgets looking to silence him and his "whistleblower". Twists and turns all the way up to the end. Worth it to blow a couple hours if you're into a more down to earth Jason Bourne or Mission Impossible thriller.

How was it?
Sinners by Michael B. Jordan (Creed, Black Panther) set in 1920's Mississippi. Jordan plays twin brothers setting up and running a club. The costar is a preacher's son who wants to be a blues musician. The plot is the club's opening night, the blues kid, and some vampire stuff. Rather well done, solid ending, fairly straight forward film. The acting is solid and the plot is mostly predictable, but I enjoyed it and it lacked some of the social commentary found in his earlier films. The really good part is that it has a banger of a prequel available if anyone chooses (hopefully) to make that story.

F1: The Movie staring Brad Pitt and some people you'll recognize. A over and down the hill racer is called back for one more shot at Formula 1 glory. I'll be honest, the plot is horrible and as realistic as Top Gun or Top Gun: Maverick. Coincidently I'm sure, the director directed Top Gun: Maverick.
Familiar type of plot, nothing special, but entertaining enough. The racing scenes? The director shines through here like he did in Maverick with its flight scenes. Bangers, really, really well done, even the CGI bits. Just badass.
The plot and mechanics if you're an F1 fan...you need to suspend belief as if you think pro wrestling storylines are real. The premise, details, dialogue...Top Gun: Maverick. Do this and you'll like the film. If you can't do this, stay away. If you want pure entertainment, this isn't Maverick worthy but it tried really hard.
Bonus point for F1 fans. Lewis Hamilton was involved and it shows in two scenes: One where he leads a race and another with Roscoe (RIP). Toto Wolf is one of eleventy billion producers and makes an appearance.
3 out of 5 (only because of the racing scenes and they might push this to 3.5) crashes.

It was fun. And similar to Top Gun, where I was pretty much a pilot… err, Naval Aviator after watching it 27 times, I now feel prepared to insert myself into the racing thread.
The movie does a nice job showing how running in dirty air kills the tires, why teams obsess over the out-lap, and how DRS plus ERS isn’t magic; it’s timing. Once you factor in tire degradation and track evolution, a lot of those “why didn’t he just pass?” takes fall apart.

I enjoyed it and would recommend; probably more than 3 stars - 3.5, maybe 4 (especially given all the pure crap being produced these days). But, your Top Gun analogy is a good one. You simply have to enjoy this movie for what it is...solid entertainment. It's a great F1 marketing tool and is another gateway to bring in fans. There's really only so much you can do with a film about auto racing, which is probably why they all feel so familiar.
Don't worry, you'll get to make more Top Gun: Maverick comparisons when the sequel come out.

In most forms of racing, the cars are now nearly identical. Tire and fuel management, coupled with driver intelligence wins races.
