The Zone of Interest (2023) Its about Rudolf Hoss and his family-hes the commandant of Auschwitz. I'm normally interested in Holocaust movies, but this one felt pretentious and gimmicky since its main focus is on the family doing mundane stuff against the backdrop of all the killings, which are only hinted at via the background noises. I found it boring and it actually isn't historically accurate either. I would have preferred a straight up adaptation instead of this. Rating: 3/10
The Queen's Gambit (2020) This showed up in my Netflix queue unexpectedly. About a chess prodigy with a dark past in the 1960s. It started off very well, but the middle episodes dragged. It wasnt until the last episodes that finally got me interested again. Rating: 6.5/10
