Suicide Squad - uuuh, 4-5/10?

This was not a comic book movie. This was a Will Smith movie. His fucking speeches and stupid oneliners. Does he have a "I need to say the movie title" clause in his contract?

And fuck's sake, they all became friends, or even according to El Diablo "family". I like cheesy, but that was just cringeworthy.

I liked Harley Quinn, though. Especially her ass.

Not a Star Wars fan, not a fan of sci-fi in general, but this was actually really good.

Alien Covenant: 3 out of 4

Solid entry. Gives a handful of answers I guess. Setting up more movies but still good. If you like Alien and/or Prometheus you'll like this.

Star Trek Beyond - 8/10. I thoroughly enjoyed the story, the action (that sequence at the end had my head spinning with terror, I hate heights) and Karl Urban was fucking great. He even made me laugh. I have loved these last three Treks so much more than all of the Star Wars and other Treks. I hope they do a couple more someday.

[Seanny One Ball]

Suicide Squad - 6.5/10. I was surprised how well made this was. Will Swith and Margot Robbie restored my faith quickly and set the standard well. I was not into Leto's Joker at all. Jared Leto is an amazingly talented twit.

Getting burned out by 13 Reasons Why. Still have 3 or 4 episodes to go and the characters are really starting to wear on me. The explanation of why everyone is acting strange is painfully slow and then it still makes little sense.

I'm not sure it needed 13 hours to tell this story like it was fucking Game of Thrones or something. I'm still going to finish this, but it's going to be a grind even though everyone keeps telling me how brutally amazing the end is.

War Machine: 5/10

The movies plot/message at its core was very good. An honest look at the nature of modern war. The failing are the characters. None were remotely interesting least of all the protagonist. I would say the worst part of the film was brad pits performance whuch might be a first.

[Ruien]

Is the War Machine a comedy? Kind of looks that way from the trailer I saw which makes me not want to watch it.

Yes. Its a comedy, though the only real joke in it is the nature of modern war, which would be funny if it werent true.

All of the structured jokes as just plain bad, mostly due to the uninspired characters.

[Sepholio]

Savages. 7/10.

Enjoyable action flick with a decent story. Generic though. Also uses a cliche fake ending swerve that I'm tired of now. Still overall a good watch.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell no Tales: 5/10


Ugh. I REALLY wanted to like this movie. I love the Pirates franchise, I'm a huge mark for it. But this one just seemed like a bad Pirates parody movie. Jack Sparrow has been Flanderized so much. Fuck, the entire cast has been. Henry was basically a carbon copy of Orlando Bloom, and the busty chick was just a poor man's Keria Knightly. The whole movie felt like it was going through the motions. I get it, that's kind of what this entire franchise is, but it felt especially egregious this time around.

[Lock Jaw]

Yeah...... Henry and Busty Chick both very much felt like Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly "budget friendly replacements"........... Both were not very good......

I too am a big Pirates fan. I thought the action sequences in DMTNT were on the whole much better than Stranger Tides, but though the story and acting were much better in ST.

Jack has really become a parody of himself. There wasnt much point in really having him in this movie.

Thought the ending scenes were nice.

I need to rewatch this again to really see my feelings on it.

If they make another, I hope its a more grounded film. They have done too many supernatural storylines.

[Cool King]

Event Horizon - 7/10

[Lock Jaw]

The film was being produced as Johnny Depp was going through a bitter divorce from his wife Amber Heard. He was chronically late to the set, to the point where it ate into the schedule as the set often came to a halt for hours at a time. It got to the point where a production assistant was hired just to wait outside Depp's house and announce that he was awake when they saw the lights inside come on.

IMDB "trivia" for the newest Pirates movie......

Wonder Woman-9/10

Landmark film. Diana is strong, confident, and fierce as well as soft, bright eyed, loving and naive, and acts with conviction. Gal Gadot has officially arrived.

Chris Pine was great. The supporting cast served a purpose to further Diana's character, including the villains.

It was funny, dramatic, exciting and action packed. The scene where she comes out of the trenches is one of the greatest comic book scenes I've personally ever witnessed. Wonder Woman arrived right then and there.

This film was everything Man of Steel was supposed to be and more. Hats off to D.C., Patty Jennings and the cast for creating what I think will be the definitive super heroine movie and the equivalent of Chris Reeves Superman when it comes to shaping the genre for female comic book leads.

God I loved this movie and cannot wait to share it with my daughter some day.

I was pleasantly surprised as to how well Gal Gadot portrayed Wonder Woman. I did not have faith in her acting abilities when she was first announced. Chris Pine was also terrific in the film.

I had faith in Gadot from the start..... while a bunch of people were going around complaining she was too skinny or her boobs weren't big enough, I was thinking "she's perfect for this".

In all fairness she was rail thin. To get credit, she busted her ass and went from model thin to looking like an athletic well put together woman. She deserves all the credit on the world for devoting herself.

She seems like a genuinely great person. Which just makes her even more beautiful. That smile tho

We're talking about comic characters, you realize this?

Obviously a character as old and iconic as wonder woman has been drawn hundreds of ways, but most fans prefer the more toned athletic look, that some aryists have gone with, as its befitting of someone who is meant to be a warrior. I had the same reservations about Gadot's frame, but she worked the fuck out and looked great in this.

They only chose that guy to play Tupac, cause he looks a lot like Tupac (it's how he got famous in the internet).

John Wick 2: 9/10

The action sequences, the way Keanu plays it straight in a universe where every character is describing him with childlike awe granting him "monster under the bed" status, the spot on dialogue and the soundtrack are all contributing factors to a glorious continuation of the Wick legend. I loved it.

Spider-man Homecoming - Completely ridiculous, how did this kid get all these spider powers? I was so confused. A third of the movie should have been dedicated to explaining this.

Lost City of Z - Not a zombie movie. I liked the look of this, shot on 35mm, it had a style reminiscent of the finest movies of the 70s, but it felt under cooked. I pretty much say this about every movie but it needed more scenes in the jungle. Spider-man was in this.

St Elmo's Fire - Damn, this movie was so bad. Just a bunch of post-college yuppie shitheads being awful in 1985. Gets melodramatic and unintentionally funny towards the end. It was funny that Emilio Estevez was stalking Andie Macdowell yet she would keep inviting him inside her house after she would catch him stalking her... and then her husband offered to take a picture of her and her stalker. Fuck this movie though.

It Could Happen to You - Pretty enjoyable dumb movie from 1993. It felt like the filmmakers wanted to make a Frank Capra movie but they didn't have a script or anything and were just making it up as they went along. Nicholas Cage plays an "everyman" which was fun because he's a maniac.

Kong Skull Island- Watched it on a plane, enjoyable. Good movie to watch on a plane because it felt impossible that a plane would crash and kill 200 people while Kong Skull Island was on.

[ClockShot]

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets - 3.5/5

The CGI was incredible, the concept was great. What kept it from being up there with the likes of Avatar, Star Wars, etc. was the lousy plot/story. And, the chemistry between Dane DeHaan & Cara Delevingne. Too cookie cutter.

The best X Man gets the best solo film. Stephen Merchant was mesmerising. I truly loved it but was saddened by the spectacle rapidly losing realism. The baddies were too much like X2, Last Stand and Origins.

The Bourne Legacy-6/10

This was the one without Jason Bourne, even though he's central to the plot. Jeremy Renner plays Aaron Cross, who's trying to make physical and mental enhancements from pills permanent.

The Jason Bourne situation causes the bureau running the programs to shut down "outcome", and Cross is the surviving member. He saves and partners with Rachel Weisz' character from there.

It was l an interesting idea but the plot kinda muddled along, trying to hard to tie in the 3rd Bourne film to this one, and not putting enough focus on Renner's character and his seemingly interesting backstory.

The ending was awful. It was a non finish to the story being told and the film really doesn't go anywhere. Felt it'd have been better to tell a separate story that happen because of the Bourne fiasco, and tie the characters together in a following film. But alas.

Captain Fantastic - 8.5/10

[Stickman]

The Revanent 2/5. Netlix made me because a 3 is "i liked it" a 2 is "I didn't like it." I didn't dislike it but I didn't like it either so I felt a 2 was more honest.

As for the movie itself, it was very meh. The scenery and all that jazz was great but the story was dull and unoriginal. Pretty much knew what was going to happen 2 hours before it happened.

Yeah dude.

Dont get me wrong, you like what you like but that movie was literally 0about the journey. Of course you know where you're going to be in 3rd act...

[Destor]

Jackie - 7/10

Script is pretty thin but Natalie Portman shows thats she's the best actress going today despite the fact.

[Stickman]

Dont get me wrong, you like what you like but that movie was literally 0about the journey. Of course you know where you're going to be in 3rd act...

I understand that it's about the journey and whatnot, but it doesn't make it a riveting tale.

Moviepass #3 It 9/10 enjoyed it a lot

for what its worth the crowd applauded right at the end and then groaned at the Chapter 1 spot at the end.

[Blue Demon]

Logan Lucky 4/5

[Seanny One Ball]

Free Fire - 7.5/10

Funny, slick and a waste of Brie Larson. I dunno why she was there really.
Not nearly as good nor as weird as A Field In England not as solid a tribute to a qgreat movie as Kill List but definitely a solid, fun one-room scenario. I wouldn't say it was brilliant or particularly memorable. In fact I would say it might be trying too hard to be The Guard...or Calvary.

[ClockShot]

[Frank Drebin]

A Cure for Wellness - 2.5 / 4

So frustrating. The movie is beautifully shot. Really great aesthetics. It's great to look at. The final act is fucking terrible. So forced. So dumb. A shame because the themes are spot on.

[Droford]

Moviepass #4 mother! 5/10

0/10 for realizing at the 90 minute mark this is about how humanity is destroying...mother nature..ugh..9/10 for the wtf is happening last 30 minutes compared to the first 90. 1 extra point for having some good acting performances although I couldn't not see mini Brad Garrett every time Javier Bardem was on screen.


If you have seen the trailer and go in expecting to see the movie in the trailer..you won't like it. I wish I hadn't seen the trailer for it although my opinion would still stand.

[Frank Drebin]

Oh no....I wanted to see Mother! I hope you're lying about that first part because that's a punch in the gut right there.

[Malfeitor]

IT - 5/10

[Droford]

Oh no....I wanted to see Mother! I hope you're lying about that first part because that's a punch in the gut right there.

The trailer I saw was before It last week which supposedly a custom trailer.

Last weekend, to goose interest among the It masses, Paramount released a custom in-theater trailer in the vein of a Screen Gems horror film that exclaimed to audiences, “In one week, in this theater, one movie will mess you up for life…You will never forget where you were the first time you saw mother! After the movie, visit the box office to get your tickets.”

A Cure for Wellness - 2.5 / 4

I couldn't agree more. That ending just ruined the entire thing for me and I was getting ready to hype that film fairly hard after 80 minutes of Dane De Haan being awesomely gothic. Then the ending... the big reveal is a grossly misjudged, feckless Stephen King-level misfire.

I shouldn't have expected much from a man who's most enjoyable film for me is a late 90's slapstick caper called Mousehunt but there you have it.

Oh and if anyone sits through it thinking the tits are worth it you are going to have one tough wank ahead of you.

[Seanny One Ball]

brigsby bear - i thought it was bangin

I've been waiting for a chance to see this because I saw the synopsis recently and it caught my imagination.
I want to see It Comes at Night and Dave Built A Maze too, they were mentioned a while ago any they sound nuts.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

It-7/10

Really good. Not really as scary as it is tense. Though there a few scenes that were great, such as the projector scene in the garage and the baseman scene with George.

I agree with Drebin on the dad. Mike also got very little time to develop compared to the other characters.

But those are minor issues. Overall I enjoyed it a ton and hope chapter 2 lives up to it.

[GD]

It - 7/10

The Prestige - 7/10

While I enjoyed the film, I did not find the explanation at the end to be compelling.

Anomalisa - 6/10

I am very confused with respect to the parallels between Lisa and the antique Japanese doll that Michael bought from the toy store.

[Frank Drebin]

The Georgie death scene at the beginning is master work. I haven't read the book but it felt like it was perfectly done.

[Seanny One Ball]

It was pretty fucked up in the old one too.

The first half of the original is top class terror whereas the second half is mostly piss.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

Yeah the Georgie scene was wonderful. Great character work in such a small amount of time. I like that, at least from what I saw, the trailers held off on Pennywise talking. It was a pleasant reminder that he's not some mindless monster.

[Frank Drebin]

Pennywise drooling at times kinda reminded me of Heath Ledger ' s Joker licking his lips in more of a reptilian/non human way.

People have said here that the Tim Curry version is more of an actual crazy clown while the Bill Skarsgaard one had more of a feeling of a creature posing as a clown which is great.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

Agree. Feel like Tim Curry just hammed it up. Skarsgaard drooling was a really neat but subtle touch. I really loved the opening scene.

More I think about the more I wanna see the movie again. Child banter was also very good.

[Sixx]

Jonh Wick 2 - 4.5 out of 5

I was genuinely surprised by how good the film was. Can't wait for the third installment to come out next year.

[Lock Jaw]

I didn't like the first one so much, but really liked the second one and also can't wait for the third.........

[Emperor Smeat]

I was genuinely surprised by how good the film was. Can't wait for the third installment to come out next year.

Yeah the second half of the film was really great. Before that was leaning towards liking the first film a lot more.

Laughed a lot at there being a king of the hobos and immediately thought about the Vince limo story where he was meant to become one.

[Seanny One Ball]

Sunshine - 4/10

The first two thirds of the film are tense, confined and visually stunning. The final third reveals that you have been watching Event Horizon fan fiction all along.
I like Event Horizon but they've basically taken the ending beat for beat and ruined an interesting film with it.
I can't stress enough just how much this ending ruined the movie for me.

Don't watch Sunshine.


Mystery Men - 6/10

I know 6/10 isn't a great score but this was a masterpiece in comparison to Sunshine only this time it's the start of the movie that brings it down a peg.

[Lock Jaw]

I remember liking Mystery Men a lot when I was younger..... haven't seen it in years, though.....

[Frank Drebin]

I really really liked Sunshine. The ending didn't destroy the whole movie for me, but it was not good and I could see why it would do that for some. I wouldn't throw it into the basket of "movies with great concepts executed terribly" since the majority of it is so good.

[Seanny One Ball]

It was beautiful until it turned into another movie. Go and watch Event Horizon and tell me Mark Strong in Sunshine isn't playing Sam Neil in Event Horizon.

I'm not a big Danny Boyle fan at all. 127 Hours was crap too and Trainspotting 2 was a muddled mess.

[Seanny One Ball]

The Deer Hunter 3/10

This universally acclaimed monstrosity is duller than a soup spoon and easily 90 minutes too long.
I hated it. If the filming hadn't been so obviously well done this would be fired down to a 2/10 because there was just nothing to this film at all. I had seen it before when I was an alcoholic but I figured I must have missed something.

Unfortunately I had not.

I'm not sure why anyone would jump on the bandwagon and declare this shit a masterpiece because it really is a long slow turd that emerges broken, disjointed and somehow missing vital pieces.
It really makes very little sense. I find it ludicrous that a man could indulge himself by filming a wedding for an hour to absolutely no improvement of the film only to have to rush through or skip some big chunks later on which leave you wondering how a guy with a broken leg now has no legs and one arm or why the fuck Christopher Walken does any of the shit that he does at all.

The best scene in this entire 3 hour mess is the bit where Bobby De Niro decides not to shoot a majestic deer on his solo return from Vietnam. I have never sat through a film as fidgety as this. It was a huge waste of time and anyone that was a film critic when it came out should be ashamed that they so easily fell into parroting back what others praised it for.
This film is the perfect example of a movie with all of the right ingredients yet that somehow created an inert, wasteful pile of crud instead of the high powered rocket fuel it should be.

I am amazed that anyone was surprised that Cimino's next film went so hugely over budget and was decried as the worst movie ever made.
I mean what Deer Hunter did these idiots see?
The one I've just watched is probably the most wasteful piece of shit I've ever sat through so I'd be expecting Heaven's Gate to be an even longer and more protracted bowel movement.

It really is sorely obvious from the Deer Hunter that Michael Cimino was an arrogant, ponderous buffoon and that he would only ever produce low energy guff that relied on slow camera work, panning all over countryside and across irrelevant scenes of a life nobody should be interested in.

It is fair to say that I actually hated The Deer Hunter.

I could edit the footage down to a lean 20 minute movie that made sense but I'd probably still have had to use 5 minutes of tracking shots just because nobody wants to see a 15 minute movie.

[Seanny One Ball]

Huh...I just checked and there are two critics that hated it just as much as I did. I take great warmth from the knowledge that Mark Kermode truly hated it and still does.

[Seanny One Ball]

Just thinking on the Oscars that year….how could Midnight Express not sweep the board?
Midnight express is actually good for a start, has great performances and tells a story that is ultimately far far more interesting.

Michael Cimino should consider himself lucky he's dead because I'd kick his ass and demand my three hours back.

[Frank Drebin]

It Comes at Night: 3 put of 4 stars

Solid. Seems alot of people were really big on this one and while it's good, I didn't think it was terribly different from others who have tried this sub genre. I liked it though.

[Seanny One Ball]

Is it at least better than 10 Cloverfield Lane?
These enclosed space horror flicks get on my tits. I did not like the one with Michael Biehn a few years ago.

[Frank Drebin]

Similar setup kinda sorta. They can go outside though. I dunno, I kinda thought the characters from 10 CL were better. I liked that movie though even with the unnecessary last ten mins. This one had more of an interesting dynamic since it's more of a fear of the unknown that the characters deal with rather than a fear of a figure who's motives become known.

Better writers and actors in 10, but better story and emotion in ICAN.

[Sixx]

War Machine - 7.5/10

What I don't get is Pitt run ended shitty, while this general his character was based on apparently got off with a shitton of medals and was hailed as a hero.

[DrA]

The Founder

It was good enough I guess. It told the story it was supposed to tell and it didn't drag on for too long. It's pretty much the exact same "rise of the capitalist" story as the Facebook and all of those Steve Jobs films that have come out recently, which in general I don't think is a particularly good concept to make a movie around since you need a bunch of contrived situations to explain the plot points. They of course had the cut scene where you see gradually more and more McDonald's start to open one after another. Michael Keaton basically did his Jack Nicholson impression that he probably developed for talk shows, but he plays a good sleezeball, and it's nice to have an actor you're comfortable with when the main character isn't really that interesting on his own or well written. Bill Offerman was good as the McDonald who keeps getting screwed over on the phone, those were the best scenes.

[Frank Drebin]

I liked reading that review, DrA.

[Seanny One Ball]

Nick Offerman not Bill.

I'm looking forward to seeing the film because Michael Keaton, Nick Offerman and John Carroll Lynch are all absolutely incredible at what they do.

What's all this shit about Michael Keaton doing a Jack Nicholson impression? That seems like a fairly large slight to aim at the man while he's currently in a well deserved career resurgence…especially when you have the man's visage in your avatar.

I love Michael Keaton, and I thought he was good in the movie. That's how it came across to me in the end speech that he did, not really the entire movie, but the speech is one of the last scenes so that was on my mind as I finished.

I had a number of "issues" with the film, but on the whole it was just so much fun. During one of the scenes during the climax of the movie, I had a big wide smile on my face involuntarily.

I wouldn't put it above the first one, but it is still good and fun.

The Taking of Pelham One Two Three-8/10

This is original with Walter Matthaugh. It's at times tense, funny, smart and well paced with good characters.

My only gripe was the end. The character who helped operate the train for the bad guys seemed hesitant the entire film, until the end where he assumes he's a free man. His demeanor changed and didn't seem to fit.

But overall it was very good.

Kingsman 2: 8.5/10 - Not as good as the original, but it comes far closer than the majority of sequels do. The "celebrity cameo" made the movie IMO....

[Sixx]

Whose cameo?

[Lock Jaw]

Elton John

[Schlomey]

I finally watched National Lampoon's European Vacation. With Chevy Chase Commentary. He is a self absorbed egomaniac and that movie was garbage for the most part. A couple little chuckles.

[Droford]

I've never seen blade runner. There's a double feature (for 2x price obviously) tomorrow night . can't use movie pass though. Do I see pay to see both or rent original somewhere and moviepass the sequel..decisions

Wind River - 8/10

Weird I haven't heard about this movie at all. Renner is great, Bernthal with a small role, but delivers as usual.

Like

How 2 replicants could make a baby?

Personally

Blafe Runner - 5/10 not really understanding the cult following/love for it. Felt like I watched a movie for 90 minutes and nothing happened. They atmosphere of the movuecwas great though..albeit with some 20/20 hindsight watching a movie set 37 years in the future 2 years away from the time frame.

Moviepass #6- 2049 6/10 I sort of felt like while there's more of a story the fact that its almost twice as long evens that back out. The visuals all convey the same universe from the original spot on. The twist at The end actually got me but it seems to not mean anything inn The long run. If they don't make a sequel again the whole movie just seems pointless

[Frank Drebin]

Lol yeah....they never got around to explaining that did they?

[Droford]

Moviepass #7 Mountain Between Us 6/10 take out Winslet and Ilba and replace with generic actors and you'd have a lifetime movie that id never bother to see. As it was it was ok. They should have eaten the dog though

Because..moviepass. Tons of old people

[mitch_h]

The Bitter Tea of General Yen - This movie was very interesting. Very progressive for it's time in showing a relationship between a white woman and a Chinese warlord (during a time when miscegenation was illegal and would soon be banned in film) and portrays American missionaries as naive and misguided... but it also has it's main Chinese character played by a white guy in yellowface. Films of the early 30s also seem very strange to me, like they had just started using sound and didn't quite know how to make movies with talking yet. Weird, beautiful, dreamlike movie, a couple times I thought I fell asleep watching TCM or something. Great picture! 10/10!!!

Wonder Woman - Good. I can't stand when the third act/last action scene is the worst part of a movie, very common with many new action/comic book movies. I still liked this though 7/10

[El Vaquero de Infierno]

Blade Runner 2049 7/10
