Not sure what I was thinking, but I finally watched The Phantom, Billy Zane's early '90s, one-off pulp hero adventure film based on a hero from the '30s. Treat Williams is a fantastic foil, chewing the scenery and leaning into every line as though it were a radio drama. The action scenes were long-winded, trying to compete with Indiana Jones but pushing the believability envelope even further back. It's a fun romp if you've got 90 minutes to kill.
Also finally got around to watching Timecrimes (Los Cronocrímenes); it had such hype behind it, I was worried I'd be disappointed. And for the first two acts, pretty much everything played out exactly as I'd expected. In the third act, though, things got weirder and more satisfying. Definitely recommendable. I went on to look at other items the director had done the recent Colossal movie with Anne Hathaway, Open Windows with Sasha Grey and Frodo, and had done something in V/H/S Viral.
