The Gift was pretty good. Bateman plays a great asshole.

I found this about Coherence.
https://www.quora.com/Can-someone-ma...film-Coherence **** IT! **** THAT! I got a little more than halfway thru reading this before deciding....you know what...**** IT! I don't want to know anymore about this ****ing movie! ROFL I give....the ****....UP! damn man..... PS - I may watch it again though. hahahaha |
Those that liked Coherence should read a recent book - Dark Matter. I read it a few weeks ago and some similar concepts.

Finally got around to The Nice Guys this weekend.
A lot to recommend it, but it kind of fizzles out at the end. It's vintage Shane Black, if you like vintage Shane Black. Excellent use of violence [if you see it or are familiar with Shane, you know what I mean]. Worth a rental or watch on streaming. I can see where people called it an overlooked gem. But I can also see why it was overlooked. It's offbeat to begin with, and like I said it kind of fizzles it's promise overall. Don't take that as a severe rebuke, more of a 'aww, this could have been even more.' It has one of the funniest bits of physical comedy in the scene referenced in spoilers below. Also, has a great homage to classic physical comedy, again spoilered.

TCM was doing a series of James Garner movies this weekend and I caught Hour of the Gun and The Great Escape.
Hour of the Gun was excellent. It is basically an earlier version of Tombstone. Jason Robards just kills the part of Doc Holliday. Highly recommend this one. The Great Escape was enjoyable but felt a bit overlong. Also, Steve McQueen's part felt completely shoehorned in. It was like he was in a different movie. Still, the movie made me read up on the actual escape, which was pretty interesting. |
Saw Don't Breathe on Saturday. Really a very well done suspense thriller. The tension is built throughout effectively. Also utilized some well-timed jump scares.
|
Has anyone seen In the Heart of the Sea? Is it worth watching? I love period ocean based movies so even if it's just some good special effects then I would give it a look.

That bathroom scene was hilarious, though. Some good acting by Gosling there. He legitimately looked frazzled. Also, "Wanna see my dick?" |

Best movie Ive seen a the theatre in a long time! Plot, acting, soundtrack all freaking great. It takes a lot to get me to theatre. Solid fick! |
Watched Grave of the Fireflies this weekend for the first time. It was a beautiful film, like most Studio Ghilbi films, but definitely not a cheery movie. My Neighbor Totoro it was not.
|
Finally caught Star Trek Beyond at the theater this weekend. Wow. I didn't think it could be worse than STD. Boy was I wrong. Absolute pile of shit. The stupid hologram, clone, transporter, people carrier toy of Jala was almost as bad as the magical raise the dead blood from STD. The motorcycle scenes were idiotic, the CGI'd fight scenes were jarring, the beginning scenes were so dark as to be unwatchable, and the humor was uninspired and bland. Ugh.

Phantasm: Ravager (2016)
http://115.imagebam.com/download/O4t...83649/rav0.gif Phantasm: Ravager isn't great, but in a way, its...um...not greatness and its confusing ending are kind of appropriate for the series. Very weak special effects fwiw. Essential viewing for fans of the series. Skippable for everyone else. Also watched: The Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll (1960) Scarecrows (1988) The Monster of Piedras Blancas (1959) I vampiri (1957) Shark Exorcist 2015 The Dead Pit 1989 Lies 1985 Hercules, Samson & Ulysses 1963 The Borrower1991 Hell Night (1981) The Initiation 1984 And last, but not least, the slasher classic "Silent Night, Deadly Night" http://115.imagebam.com/download/Fpu...4730/snowm.gif http://115.imagebam.com/download/hOM...4644/punch.gif |
Caught the Big Short on Netflix. Very well acted.
I'd need to do some research on truthiness, but the business side seems oversold. That's just me being a nerd. Watch the movie. It's well done. |

https://www.amazon.com/Big-Short-Ins.../dp/0393338827 http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...57106dd404.jpg Books has way more information and infuriating, but educational. I highly recommend it. The movie adds the humor and dramatized it but there isn't much factually off in the events or timeline. |
Just caught The Shallows.
Most definitely worth a viewing! |
Watched "Everybody Wants Some" the other night, pretty good flick. It's pretty much "Dazed and Confused" of the modern day.
|
I thought Split was enjoyable but generally only because of McAvoy's performance.
Spoiler!
It's worth a watch though. |
I watche Sausage Party last weekend. what a ****ed up movie LMAO.

Highly recommend Don't Think Twice.
I've always enjoyed Mike Birbiglia's standup. His movies seem to mirror his standup -- funny (but not the funniest), but excellent storytelling. |
Just lost 2:15 hours of my life...USS Indianapolis has got to be one of the worst war movies I've ever paid a $1.50 for...
It's like Sharknado and Pearl Harbor...ugh...I'm kinda mad at myself for watching the whole thing (actually I should blame my wife). Do yourself a favor and pass on this one..it's an utter abortion. |
I would like to see "3 idiots" again.

I gave up on it about 20 minutes in. I thought it was just...not good...not funny. maybe some drunken evening I'll give it another try. the potato getting skinned though...just too damn funny. WHAT THE ****! ROFL |
lesbian taco voiced by selma hayek was hilarious
|
the concepts were what were making me laugh so hard.
the non-perishables were basically Gods or some sort of holy men. and the douche, being.....well, a douche. Those were the highlights for me. Stephen hawking type character as Gum lol. I enjoyed it. |
Got free tickets/food promo card to go see the new XXX movie.
Not enough Tony Jaa. |
Are you going to see XXX movie using your free tickets?

The Founder was very good.

Finally caught the Revenant. It was good. Very well shot and acted but some of the stuff I missed. Not sure I was paying close enough attention.

I saw the Intern recently.
Better than I expected, although my expectations were really low. I'm not a Hathaway fan (although I'd like her to sit on my face) and DeNiro has laid some eggs recently. It should be noted that I'm a business junkie, so the dynamics of the company, as unrealistic as they were, held some interest. Hathaway did a far better job than I thought she would. DeNiro was endearing. The story wasn't too damn shallow. Not great, but worth a look. |

Good Lord, Free State of Jones was tough to watch. Like, nearly as tough to get through as 12 Years a Slave.
I've got to stop watching movies like that. |

Gave me an appreciation for Fassbender. There's like a 20 min long convo in one cut. |
finally saw 42 last week. it was glorious and repulsive, beautiful and hideous.
my gawd racial discrimination is just sofa king stupid man. all this time later and it's still alive and kicking....what are we DOING? just unreal. |

Both of those look kick ass. Guardians is one of my all time favorites.

I thought Get Out was so good.

I'm about to say a thing I never though I'd say: I have respect for a Frenchman.
After "Prisoners," "Enemy," and "Arrival" I am forced to walk the fence and look my neighbor in the eye while saying "Well done sir..." |

I caught Get Out this afternoon. It's pretty damn good. Just the right mix of comedy and suspense. Equal parts Tyler Perry and Alfred Hitchcock. Smart story that is a nice departure, for me anyway, from all the rehashed crap coming out of Hollywood.

I feel pretty confident in saying you won't find it particularly terrifying. It was really more suspenseful and creepy before becoming thrilling by by the final act. |

I haven't seen it yet...but it's on my todo list....I found out this weekend that Jordan Peele wrote and directed Get Out...he of Key and Peele....
I did not know that! interesting.... |
Watched Passengers last night. I thought it was a very good movie. Great acting, lots of suspense, good story. Saw some bad reviews, but watched it anyway. Glad I did!!

Trainspotting 2 opens up nationwide this weekend. Just found out the only theater in Dallas showing it is just down the street from my office. I can't wait to go right after I get off work on Friday!

Up until 5 minutes ago, I knew nothing of this. Now, I'm positively giddy with anticpation.
Director of In Bruges Frances McDormand the rest of the cast Missouri!! <iframe width="637" height="358" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Jit3YhGx5pU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |
