American Honey is worth a watch...It's like Kids but with millennials. 1/22/2017 12:17:08 PM |

wasnt Kids about Millennials?
It was made in 1995 about 12-15 yr olds (i know the actors were older but they were playing those ages, i believe) 1/22/2017 4:12:55 PM |

Anybody seen Hard Candy?
Available on Netflix till end of this month. I definitely recommend it.
There are 2,000+ reviews on Netflix, with what seems like 80-90% 5-star, and the remaining 1-star, with very few in between.
It will make you go like this --->

Is it really worth the watch? I started it on a plane, but I gave up 30-40 minutes in. The movie just struck me as standard oscar-bait with the title perfectly describing the plot up to that point (thin, if there even at all).
The Shape of Water, on the other hand, was a great Oscar-worthy movie. I actually watched it several days before Phantom Thread, so I wonder if it just being so good may have spoiled Phantom Thread - the clear Oscar-baiting in Phantom just looked amateur in comparison.4/25/2018 1:45:11 PM |

Pesci in the Irishman isn’t much like the Pesci from the roles he’s most known for
it’s a very quiet and understated role 11/20/2019 12:50:14 PM |

So wait a second...
You're telling me Joe Pesci plays a mobster, alongside Robert De Niro, in a Martin Scorsese directed flick, and his performance is great?
Complete mindfuck.

Pacino is older and his performance is very loud
Pesci is known for generally going at one speed, and it was impressive to see him not go at that speed, especially after not acting much at all in the past 20 years 11/20/2019 1:14:03 PM |

Did anyone else see "The Audition?" It's a 20-minute short, a few years old now, but it was a fantastic watch of Scorcese and his regulars spoofing themselves. 11/20/2019 1:51:01 PM |

Any aficianados want to give their top 5 of the year? I haven’t seen too many. I thought joker wasn’t that great. About to find “Once upon a time in the west”. I thought Glass was a serious let down too. Want to see liar. Good boys had a few laughs but overall meh. 11/23/2019 10:10:00 PM |

Ford vs. Ferarri is too long and the racing scenes are really poorly done, it's almost fast and furious level "shift and push the gas to go faster" and the crashes look really fake. 11/24/2019 8:53:21 AM |

Just finished OUATIH. I mean i guess it was kind of entertaining at times, but definitely not as good as I thought it would be. Brad Pitt was awesome. End scene was less violent than I was expecting based on what others had said.

I finally saw The Irishman.
I thought the movie was not worth the hype. I'm glad I waited to watch it on Netflix. That movie could have been 90 mins, maybe 2 hours tops.
It was slow, it was boring, and I think its mediocre at best. 11/30/2019 2:15:53 PM |

Yeah thats about the only thing I didn’t agree with. I mean maybe 2 hours or 135 minutes, but not 90 minutes 11/30/2019 11:33:13 PM |

ad astra is pretty but not actually good
other recently watched films: yesterday was much better than i expected, very enjoyable downton abbey was great angel has fallen is bad even if you are just expecting a dumb action movie, it's very bad late night was good good boys is okay but the previews show most of the jokes the art of racing in the rain is fantastic, but you're gonna cry stuber is really funny, great buddy cop comedy midsommar is weird old boys is kinda cute, not great but enjoyable brightburn is a really cool take on the super here genre anna is very good, felt like a mix of la femme nakita and the professional fast and furios hobbs and shaw is bad, very dumb shazam is great booksmart is great, much better raunchy comedy than good boys teen spirit never really goes anywhere, it ends just as you feel like things are starting
