it was really bad. It shouldn't even be mentioned in as part of the Bourne Series. Sort of Like the Van Halen album where Gary Cherone was the singer. Just void it from existence.

Yeah, I watched it recently. I did enjoy it but don't have any misconception about it being any good.

Bourne wrecked fools. I enjoy watching Bourne wreck fools. And that's about all there was to it. I did have an inkling that Bourne might die because eventually his story has to wrap up and they waxed Julia Styles to add some weight.

The real problem is they could have used footage from any of the bourne flicks. Him hiding in plain sight was very played out and really took me out of the movie. The story was largely crap also. But it was always an excuse for Bourne to wreck shit.

It was a halfhearted cash grab. But Bourne wrecked fools so whatever.

I couldn't believe how bad the Bourne was, and I saw it in the theater where action movies usually look better. I did enjoy the previous Bourne with Jeremy Renner. It was on HBO and I must of watched 15 times, especially the first hour. I like it when he at the cabin in the snowy mountains and then later when he goes after those people in that house. He comes out of that closet all hell breaks loose.

Speaking of Bourne, this looks WAY better than it has any right to be. Might even be a comprehensible plot.

I went to see "The House" the other day, not too bad, I was entertained.

I'll watch anything with Jackie Chan. Be interesting to see him in a more somber action role. Love the kung-fu slapstick, but good to see something different.

No shit. That looks good.

I wasn't expecting much from 47 Meters Down yet it still managed to disappoint. The constant screaming became annoying to the point I was rooting for the characters to die. I think it could've benefited from an All Is Lost type of feel with waaaay less cheesy dialogue fronting as being serious. The shark effects didn't make it worth it either. Thumbs down.

**Buehler445** · 07-04-2017, 02:04 PM

LOL. Every damn girlie movie my wife watches I totally root for total death.

Watched this last night. Meh
It was just ok.

Wasn't expecting much but Fantastic Beasts was pretty enjoyable.

I completely poo-pooed the idea of seeing 'Logan' in the thread made for it, and Sure-Oz popped me for it... rightly so, I might add

Rented it a couple weeks ago and holy hell!

That was the grittiest, most grounded X-Men flic ever made bar none

The new King Arthur flick was weak. Just weak.

Yeah, it was a bummer. Shame because I'm such a massive fan of Ritchie's early work. Snatch and Lock Stock are two of my favorite movies.

Watching The Accountant now. Very entertaining flick.
