Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

What's up with Searching? Tense Psych/Noir or, "I have a very particular set of skills." find my daughter type film?
 
The Nun 4.5/8 - Was expecting a lot more. The jump scares were weak and the origin was rushed. Still a cool demon/villain whatever you want to call it.

Pretty much where I'm at. I loved both Conjuring's, and both Annabelle's, so I had high hopes for this, and so far it's the weakest one. I loved the tie ins, those were great, I like the idea of tying it all together, but the execution was poor, the scares were too predictable and too much drag in it.

Peppermint tonight. :hat
 


:emoji_goat:

I’m on season 5 of my sopranos rewatch binge. Show is top 5 hands down. Having said that......season 1 has some SUPER cringe acting moments :lol:


Man same here :hat. I’m on The Test Dream at the moment.

What has been your favorite season so far? I found myself enjoying season 4 a lot more this time. The fight between tony and Carmella in the finale was :eek

Show is top 1 btw

I think 4 is my fav. Ralphie was just too good of a character man. My favorite episodes are all from different seasons tho :lol
 
Infinity War 4.9/8

These superhero movies are continually underwhelming. Glad I only paid redbox prices.
Thanos wack. Character motives wack. Random bad guys wack. Dialogue wack.

But HEY! Cool CGI!

Avengers: Infinity War makes more sense when you've seen the previous films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
 
White assimilation into yakuza
I don't think this was the purpose, but the movie ******* sucked.

All the time spent, and you truly didnt understand how the organization worked.

More like a white man that was intrigued and loved the ????? Couldnt even say a sense of belonging and being loyal when in reality he already had that in the military.

1/8

they gotta bring this back
 
Anyone hyped for Bad Times at the El Royale? Also, was Watchmen hated on because it was super long? Could it have been any shorter in truth?

Peppermint was :smokin

Nothing special, but fun and entertaining. I miss Alias Garner. :(
 
Kin 5.5/8

Only real issue I had was there was some shameless in a few scenes and the story was pretty flat. Acting was okay at best.

Most compelling things about this were the sci-fi angle and James Franco as the villain and he was just good at best.

The big surprise for me wss the actor showed up at the end. That got all my attention. Planted some seeds for a sequel. Dunno if the movie will make enough to get one though.


Operation Finale 6.5/8

A movie like this reminds you how great Kingsley is. Son made a Damn Nazi and dude behind the holocaust somewhat charming. Just the way he tried to rationalize everything.

Issac was all the way on point in this. The movie is really him and Kinglsey with some tense suspenseful action and possibly being caught around the situation. Issac and Kingsley had great chemistry.


Peppermint 5.7/8

Better than I thought it would be. Pretty good given expectations.

This basically female Punisher. Goes in with some gruesome kills. This was some Equalizer type ****. I actually would've preferred if they dialed back some of the emotion and haunting moments of grief for more reckless violence.

One kill they should've definitely shown was the defense lawyer that offered her the bring (Mason from Ozark :lol: Also from Newsroom). The other thing being an explanation for how or when the other dude from Newsroom was a dirty cop.

The ending got a little fumb and silly with the social media but writers are still trying to adapt the modern age in to movies. Not an excuse but they're a bit lazy with that.

That aside action was great, her somehow being in LA going undetected managing to kill at least 2 dozen ppl in one day with various methods of killing was hilarious and fun. I meant it when I said female Punisher.

Andre the Giant 8/8 - Amazing documentary. Might be slightly biased being a wrestling fan but damn some of those moments were powerful. Check it out.

Disobedience 5/8 - Tough one to review. I might have been expecting too much from this. The chemistry between the two actresses is there and they go for it pretty good. Freedom of choice is undefeated.
 
Anyone hyped for Bad Times at the El Royale?
In it to see if Hemsworth is gonna pull off being a menacing crazy villain.

Also, was Watchmen hated on because it was super long? Could it have been any shorter in truth?
Hated on cuz it isnt good and diminishes the source material. Subpar acting, pacing, and directing.
 
I ask, because I just saw it again for the 1st time in years. I prefer the book, although, folks were viciously throwing hands throughout the movie.
 
So this season of Shooter will be my last. Its been like Dragonball Z where one fight takes up 4-5 episodes. It’s been labor to get through episodes for me... Really really hate the redneck name for the lead character to. It’s not respectable...
