Every movie I've watched since we've been in quarantine:
Cat People-First watch, really enjoyed this one. Other than A Clockwork Orange I haven't really seen any young Malcom McDowell movies. Also the David Bowie song kicks ass. Us-Finally saw this after all the hype has died down. This movie was a lot of fun. Felt like Jordan Peele was attempting to write his own episode of The Twilight Zone, which makes sense given that he brought The Twilight Zone back. Glass- I heard enough people saying that as a third film in the trilogy Night didn't stick the landing and sort of messed up the goodwill he got from Unbreakable and regained with Spilt. I thought it was fine. Not a total disappointment, not an amazing ending to a trilogy either. Godzilla: King of the Monsters- I like kajui movies, even mediocre ones are fun in my book. Do you guys like the modern Godzilla movies? Meaning the last one and this one? Not the Matthew Broadrick one from the 90's. Happy Death Day 2U- I enjoyed this movie as well. A movie that unlike most horror movie sequels didn't just repeat itself. Dangerous Liaisons- The best of the bunch so far. I enjoyed this movie a great deal. A fantastic cast, great score. If you've not seen it, see it. Everyone is so good in this movie. Arthur- Saw this for the first time last night. There are definitely moments where the comedy in today's climate could be quite questionable but isn't that the case with any comedy even 10 years old or older? I have heard that this movie is a comedy classic, and that the sequel to it is a major let down, so while that is available to watch I have no intention of watching it. All these movies I watched through HBO, I realized that even though I have Netflix, I haven't seen anything on it since February, prior to the Covid isolation. How about you guys? I'll keep posting as I watch, I tend to come to this board and then forget about it for weeks so I'll try to keep coming back and updating, cause, why not? |

Wee Wille Winkie, a Shirley Temple movie.

Really enjoyed watching Shin Godzilla, don't expect Hollywood style big budget special effects but like I said watch it as political satire.
Yesterday I channel hopped onto the last half hour of Wanted starring Angelina Jolie. Found it really surprising how stupendous it was despite the pretty good ratings it has on imdb. Two guys are in a gunfight (in a moving train), they shoot three times at each other and each time the bullets hit one another ???? |

Was it a bullet train? |

I was actually going to have this as my first choice for film night when I got back from New Orleans a month back. Instead I chose something that I can't even remember. Should get it watched really. |
^^^^^^
The lizards are the true stars of that movie :) Tonight I watched a movie that stars both Bill Murray and Bruce Willis. It was quite disappointing. Don't understand why anyone would like to make it or star in it. It's based on true events but definitely not as shown in that movie. A comedy that takes place in warzone Afghanistan...? (And has a sincere lack of humor). Avoid. ![]() |
rock the casbah was BRUTAL.

Watched a movie on Netflix called Wildling. About a girl who was severely sheltered by her father, until one day she is rescued and goes to live with a family, and her struggle to adjust.

i love cate blanchett but elizabeth the golden age was quite shit
|
Slint documentary on YT called Breadcrumb Trail.
Their parents should get a statue for allowing a bunch of 14 year olds playing trashpunk in their basement 24/7 Never knew (or totally forgot) that the drummer also played on the first Breeders albums. Makes sense long time I heard it, will be the Sunday morning starter |
Watched The Dirty Dozen.

Used to love this thread back in the day (I have some postings SEVERAL pages back and I am NOT digging them back up)...
The last 4 movies I watched, all via Netflix (most were exclusive/original) WHAT HAPPENED TO MONDAY Not particularly great but not horrible either. Dystopian settings are nothing new and for the most part this is no exception. Satisfying enough action-wise. Admittedly I mainly watched it for William Dafoe, but he's barely in it. Not recommended if seeing things happen to children upsets you. 7/10 UNDER THE SKIN Would be the one most of interest to people on here of this whole batch. Slow, sparse dialogue, but some really amazing cinematography. Most impressive is somehow they got ScarJo herself to play the lead role?! Some have called her miscast and her performance wooden, but I think it worked for the role (she plays an alien). More art than movie. Enjoyed but probably won't rewatch (rare for me these days anyway). 8/10 6 UNDERGROUND It's Michael Bay, so I knew what I was getting into. OK-ish acting, horrid dialogue and the main character comes off as a prick. Plus, it tries to come off as caring about the plight of people in the third world (mainly the Middle East) but ends up looking sanctimonious. Definitely a "turn off your brain and enjoy yourself" kind of movie. 6 (:D)/10 THE IRISHMAN A masterpiece, but...3 1/2 HOURS??!! I can think of ways he could have shortened it, and I usually can't for long movies (case in point, Interstellar). Great cast, with appearances from guys known for crime films/television both older (Harvey Keitel) and younger (Bobby Cannavale). Heard the Five Satins' "In the Still of the Night" in my brain for days after. Robbed at the Oscars. 9/10 |
