I enjoyed LtWB
Sure I get some of the chatter It has the helpless-without-his-smartphone white husband and dad The angry at everyone, judgmental white Karen wife and mom who has an underlying touch of jungle fever when in the presence of a strong, intelligent, capable black male Doofus teenage white son Traditional white little sis no one listens to Strong, intelligent, capable black male Strong, sassy yet vulnerable black daughter White doomsday prepper who'll pull a shotgun on anyone at anytime to defend what's his But none of those are inaccurate portrayals in society so unless you're super insecure about yourself its just a regular ol movie. I appreciated the filming style and the score. I thought the ending was well done. Plus they had me at Misled by Kool & The Gang early in movie. That song is fire (she's as heavy as a Chevy ![]() |

****ing terrible movie. Ending was garbage. 2-hour and 20 min run time and THAT was the payoff at the end? 2hour snooze fest. Kevin Bacon got like 10 minutes of screen time. The ship running ashore was the only interesting thing to happen in this movie.

Finally saw "The Postman" after 26 years.
Loved every second of it. Was it perfect? No. A lot of cheese. But a lot of heart, and you can't beat that final shot. ![]() Also, David Brin's take on it will leave you happy it was made the way it was made. It could have been a LOT worse. There's also a fun site about the novel's backstory that's interesting to read. And as a FORMER postman, it definitely hit me right in the feels.

Just watch "The Day After." It's a fairly realistic end-of-it-all flick that may not have held up as far as special effects or stock film go but the setting and story hit home.

Just watched The Iron Claw last night. Pretty good movie but nothing out of this world or anything. Solid 7/10 I would say. It seems like they glossed over some of the story after reading up on it. I probably watched some of their matches when I was a kid but don't remember the story at all. Very tragic for the family.

Blue Beetle on Max
I thought this was supposed to be pretty decent. There's no reason to watch it for the super hero part, you've seen it before. It's got a nice family dynamic. Between that and the campy humor that misses a bunch.. it really feels like a movie where the main characters should be 10-12 year olds. I thought it was pretty cruddy if you're watching as an adult for adults. |

Wow. Oliver Stone's JFK was ****ing amazing. Amazingly well shot, too, and great score. Costner squoze some tears out of me at the end.
No doubt that the CIA took out Kennedy. Back and to the left. That shot could only have come from the fence. Gonna have to watch Nixon and W. now.

Also the analysis of the photo on LIFE was quite interesting. No question that photo is fake.

Speaking of which, I got up early this a.m. before in-laws coming over for Christmas and watched "Beverly Hills Cop". Had not seen that movie in forever! Guess I needed a freshen up so I can look forward to the new one coming out next year on Netflix. Fun watch as I had remembered.
