Julia Louis-Dreyfuss had me falling off my couch laughing. The flick starts going in a lot of places that really needed to be gone to, and then it just...stops. The whole thing becomes some very stupid and very cliché pile of drivel after that. I just can't watch Julia's face anymore since all the 'cosmetic' work. She was butchered.

Of course Jonah Hill is gonna write the scene so that he turns out to be some street basketball wiz. I'm shocked his first choice to play his girl wasn't Beyonce.

He added that The Wild Bunch (1969) isn’t “perfect” but so close it deserves an honorable mention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoFlaJets Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 The only one on my list IS The Wild Bunch. The Cincinnati Kid is right up there among my favorites along with Pat Garret and Billy The Kid, The Maltese Falcon, Killer's Kiss is cool too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Hitchcock, and this was, imo, his best. Some of this other classics are dated but enjoyable for the nostalgia, but this one is just as good today as when I first saw it. Probably about 40 years ago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Namor but if you don't have Black Panther in it, it's not a Black Panther movie and I'm just not interested in a Shuri movie. I had a lot of respect for Boseman, but they should have recast the character. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was nice to feel like the MCU is once again building toward something with some gravitas in the Kang Dynasty. This last phase felt so rudderless at times. What was the point of so many of these characters being introduced with no clear plan to have them interact with each other? Just give us some proper Fantastic Four and X Men movies, I could care less about the Marvels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T0mShane Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 Infinity Pool was so, so good and trippy. Similar in tone to Barbarian and The Menu, but is more mind****y. Saw it a few weeks ago and I’m still thinking about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsfaninNorthHollywood Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I haven't been to the movies in ages, as nothing has really captured my interest. But I recently watched "Bullitt", "Reservoir Dogs", "Straw Dogs", and "Margin Call" for the first time in awhile. That car chase in "Bullitt", to me is the greatest car chase, aside from maybe "The French Connection", "The 7 Ups", or "Blues Brothers". My colleagues at work were trying to tell me the "Fast and Furious" had the best car chases. Umm sure ok. lol 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Quantumania missed out on an opportunity, but after watching a video from New Rockstars...maybe not. I liked Wakanda as well. IMHO it was probably one of the better movies from Marvel since Endgame. Given, what they had to do trying to 're-write' history after Bozeman's death, I think they did a real good job. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
