your call, and it sounds like a good one. If the divisiveness is vital to the experience, don't spoil it.

I am in Accounting and have a son afflicted with Autism.....I will address both issues from my POV.

First off, I agree with you about the whole accounting being wonky. It just seemed that they brought in someone to draw mathematical conclusions on the board and shot the film around it. I'm like you in that the time allotted to coming to that conclusion, even with a "beautiful mind" behind it just seemed out of touch.

Second......again from my POV....is that I have a hard time, knowing the whole issue with sensitivities that most with Asperger's/Autism have , he could/would handle all that he had done so untouched.

Now having said that, I enjoyed the movie. I set aside my real life understanding of the character's nature and enjoyed it for the entertainment it was.

Has anyone gone to see Wind River yet? It's rare that Rotten Tomatoes scores from both the critics and the audience are over 90% simultaneously....

Yeah. Wind River was really really good. Saw it in theaters awhile back and enjoyed the hell out of it (might even be my favorite film of the year next to Dunkirk & Logan) . Jeremy Renner was badass in it. Highly recommend checking it out

saw Mother! today. Still trying to wrap my mind around it . Its from the director of Black Swan & Requiem for a Dream. Overall, I dug it BUT I can completely understand how a LOT of folks are gonna hate it. Like, really hate it lol.

I HATED this movie. I get all the religious symbolism but the story itself is awful and really goes off the rails in the last third.

I was just about to post that.

You watching DeFranco?

Watched First Blood the other night.

I thought it was pretty good. I had no idea it'd be Rambo vs Smalltown police force. And definitely not in America. I guess I just always assumed he'd be in Borneo or something fighting foreigners.

Anyway, should I watch any more of them? When is it no longer worth watching?

They get progressively shittier. But still absolutely worth finishing the series.

Rambo 2 is a cartoon...and it's ****ing awesome.

American Assassin is a decent movie to see in the Jason Bourne/Jack Reacher style. 3/5 stars.

How was Michael Keaton? I read the book and didn't picture him as the mentor role, like at all.

I saw last night and was steeled to absolutely hate the experience. I thought DA got the creepy mood of things being just off right. Third act didn't bother me given the story it was telling. Was better than I expected though I'm not sure if that was because I wasn't expecting anything or not...
