MDL_JET Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Watched two recently... Revenge: Pretty damn good watch. Not the most realistic movie but once you get past that it's ridiculous in terms of reality, it's a good quality gruesome movie. Great cinematography on top of it all. Plus a bad ass hot chick throughout, can't go wrong! Upgrade: Another revenge movie, but just so well done and the action/fight scenes are amazing, and the way they used the camera movement to give it all that robotic feel. Def recommend going to see this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Finally caught up on Avengers and Deadpool this weekend: Avengers was awesome. Arguably the best Marvel movie to date. Everything fit, everything worked, the humor registered, the mysterious ending with just the core Avengers left alive. So good! Absolutely loved it. Deadpool really just didnt do it for me. It wasnt anywhere near as good as the first one and I often found myself extremely bored with the story. It was funny and entertaining to an extent but it was just very blah. It might need a 2nd watch. I just found myself getting really bored with the plot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought Ehrenreich did a great job (was shocked that he pulled it off as well as he did), thought the movie was fun and cool (aside from the annoying AF, pointless Droid) and I really loved a few moments in it. I think I get their plan now. Make mindless new crap in the series films for the idiot SJW millennial crowd, and make cool throwbacks for the anthology films for us old geezers and our kids. Whatever. I hope Solo gets a trilogy and I think Kenobi with McGregor will be epic. Still havent seen Solo. Probably not going to the movies for it.

CotcheryifyouCan Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 just got back from infinity war. waited for the crowds to die down, literally only 5 people there in the theaters. imo one of the best marvel movies ever. toss up between this, civil war, winter soldier, and iron man 1. also saw deadpool 2 two weeks ago and thought it was hilarious. prolly not as good as the first but the x force scene along with cable was worth it. im also a huge xmen fan so the villian reveal was great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Untouchable Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Surprisingly, the new Halloween trailer doesn’t look half bad. I’m glad they’re totally ignoring those sh*t sequels and making a direct follow up to the 1978 original. They even managed to get John Carpenter on board as executive producer and to produce the music and are bringing back the stuntman who played Michael Myers in the original.

Not as much as the 1st but still good. Well at least they brought back the real star (Firth) for a bit. The complete miscasting of Samuel Jackson and the stupid speech impediment they gave him in the first, ruined that one for me. I was like "this is beyond stupid and horrible" everytime Jackson appeared or said anything. Was the 2nd movie really worth the time? I know I won't be watching any more of them, unless forced to.

Larz Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 So my first attempt at seeing movies on weeknights to avoid crowds was a success. Saw incredibles 2 last night. Smallish crowd, no babies!

T0mShane Posted June 29, 2018 Author Share Posted June 29, 2018 Just saw Sicario 2. If you enjoyed the complex meditation on the fluid nature of ethics in the face of overwhelming evil from the original, this movie is not for you. Instead, this feels like they took a bunch of set pieces cut from the first film, taped them together, and marketed it as a sequel. There’s no depth, and the film consciously avoids making the hard narrative choices that made S1 so compelling. As annoying as Emily Blunt’s moralizing was in the original, you definitely miss that element here. Instead, it’s just a morose Benicio Del Toro mumbling sh*t at an acerbic Josh Brolin, with no counterweight to balance what they’re plotting (Brolin: “We’re gonna start a war...between drug cartels.” Del Toro: “OK.” Brolin: “And it’s gonna get dirty!” Del Toro: “Yeah, sure, fine.”) There’s also some weird aside with a deaf guy that goes nowhere, but the deaf guy is played by Pablo Escobar’s attorney from Narcos, which left me wishing I was home watching Narcos instead. As in S1, there’s a subplot with some minor characters who live along the border, but—unlike the Mexican cop in S1–they’re so one-dimensional that you don’t care about them at all. All in all, if you liked Sicario and you like Taylor Sheridan scripts, I’d wait until this is on Netflix. Otherwise, pass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stand by my opinion that Tarantino movies are overeated trash written from the point of view of a 14 year olds confused mindset combined with a lonely 55 year old hermit-pedophile that hates women. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I'm a huge Purge fan so take this with a grain of salt, but The First Purge is pretty great. Perfect mixture of B-movie goodness and embracing what I think is one of the cooler movie franchise concepts. When the franchise accepts that it's a throwback to the type of sh*t that John Carpenter used to make, like it did in Anarchy and this one, it really shines. I am still hoping they do an entire movie about Purge Tourism, which they talked about in Election Year. That is a dope concept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Solo was very good. Star Wars films have been hit and miss with me over the past few years. I wasn't a big fan of The Last Jedi (2017) but I really liked The Force Awakens. I have to say my favorite film, other than The Empire Strikes Back (which is the best movie they've ever made) is actually the side project, Rogue One. Although a lot of people like it and it got very good reviews I still consider it underrated. The way they turned what was basically a footnote in the original Star Wars, Episode IV: A New Hope, about getting the plans for the Death Star into an entire movie with great characters and incredible depth was fascinating to me. SPOILER ALERT (although you all should have seen Rogue One by now): I thought Felicity Jones was phenomal as Jyn Erso and how her perception of her father changed from what she had suspected (he was a traitor) to knowing he had secretly been building a vulnerability in the Death Star was awesome. I also thought it was bold and somewhat un-Star Wars like to have almost all of the heroes and key characters perish by the end of the film. The movie almost had an Invasion of Normandy type feel to it when they finally landed on Scarif in that they knew there would be massive casualties and they would all likely die but the importance of the mission was so critical that it didn't matter. The final 2 minutes and lead up to Episode IV just sealed the deal for me on that movie. Quote What chance do we have? The question is "what choice." Run, hide, plead for mercy, scatter your forces. You give way to an enemy this evil with this much power and you condemn the galaxy to an eternity of submission. The time to fight is now! And she ain't bad to look at! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
