Watched: Invitation to a Murder two or three nights ago. ★★★★☆

I thoroughly enjoyed this film! It perfectly captured that classic Agatha Christie magic I love in a good detective story.

It’s set in 1930s England; six strangers are summoned to a remote island estate, and when bodies start turning up, an aspiring detective must find the killer among them before it’s too late.

I was so excited to find out there is a sequel out—Murder at the Embassy—and another on the way: The Mystery of the Golden Spear.

Gotta watch the sequel soon. I can’t wait to see more of Miranda Green!

Watched: Mr. K 🍿

It’s a rather unusual film, and I’m still trying to understand how it holds a 79% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. There isn’t much to explain what is actually happening to the place as he wanders through it; he’s essentially trapped in an architectural labyrinth. I can’t help but feel like I missed the point of the story, so I might need to re-watch it someday.

However, I definitely agree with this description:

A beautiful eerie nightmare. — Shantelle Santos

CATL’s new Shenxing LFP battery just clocked a 6-minute full charge, beating BYD’s Blade 2.0. It hits 10-98% in 6:27 and even handles -30°C temps with ease. We’re officially reaching gas-station speeds for EV refueling. Amazing! Will we finally switching from gas powered to electric powered soon?

It is on my watchlist: The Sheep Detectives (May 8th in theaters, hopefully streaming soon) featuring Hugh Jackson as George, the Shephard.

But when a mysterious incident disrupts life on the farm, the sheep realize they must become the detectives. As they follow the clues and investigate human suspects, they prove that even sheep can be brilliant crime-solvers.
