First Impressions Review Diary 6-Mar-2021

__Hello.🙂 How's everyone's year going so far? I'm certainly hopeful for the near future, but in the meantime, I'm staying at home and keeping myself busy the best way I know how.🙂
__As it's the first Saturday of the month, this would normally be the time when I'd post a compilation of my "first impressions" mini reviews for all the latest movies I'd seen. However, I wouldn't have many this time because I've barely been watching any movies at all. Instead, I've been focusing on video games and TV shows. After all, I have a huge backlog of both. I'm going through all my unplayed games by year, so I've mostly been playing retro games on emulators so far. At first, I didn't bother commenting on them, since I find it much harder to review something without voice acting or anything that normally defines visual storytelling, but then I tried it and found that I did at least have a tweet's worth of comments on each one.🙂
__Before we start, though, I did watch one movie back in January: Infernal Affairs. You see, whenever I do get back to watching movies on a more full-time basis, one place I want to start is the last few titles on a "100 movies bucket list" poster I got a few Christmases ago. One of those movies is The Departed, so I thought I might as well start with the original film that it's based on.
