Peter Parker and the Forgotten Murder

 Tuesday: Suddenly, Last Summer (1959)

        John is a surgeon at a mental hospital. He performs craniotomies on patients. A new case is brought before him. A young woman named Catherine was on vacation with her cousin. He died under mysterious circumstances. She can't remember anything and has a breakdown. Catherine is admitted to a smaller mental asylum. Her aunt wants her to get a craniotomy. John must find out more before he can decide to perform the surgery. I thought this was a good movie.

Wednesday: Point Blank (1967)

         After pulling a heist on Alcatraz, Walker is double crossed and left on the island. Once he is back in San Fransisco he must find his partner and get his money back. To do that he also has to take down the biggest organized crime syndicate in San Fransisco. This movie was alright. It goes between the past and present. Also you aren't sure if the events  actually happened or if it's a dream, so it's confusing.

Thursday: A Christmas Prince (2017) 

       Amber is a reporter who is sent to cover the coronation of a playboy European prince. Once there it becomes clear the prince won't speak to the press. Determined not to go home empty handed Amber gets a job as the princess's tutor. She will work undercover to get more info on the prince. Soon she realizes that there is more to the prince. This movie is ok. Not sure how it got two sequels. 

Saturday: Spider-man: No Way Home (2021)

        The world knows Peter is Spider-man. It changes everything for him and his loved ones. Determined to fix it Peter goes to Doctor Strange for help. He wants a spell that will make people forget he is Spider-man. Doctor Strange performs the spell but it goes wrong. Villains from other universes appear. They know Spider-man, but not this Spider-man. Peter and Doctor Strange have to fix what they have done. I thought this movie was really good. It was so cool to see these villains from the other Spider-man movies come back and interact with this Spider-man. There are some other cameos that I enjoyed a lot. I won't say much more. But they surprised me.
