What's the last movie you saw?

[Sundance Kid V2]

Venom 2 : 2.1 / 10. Bleh. Crap.

[jimmyboy]

Gucci
7/10
A well done soap opera, but wow lots of just bad behavior and family dysfunction. What's that saying, "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned"?

Ghostbusters Afterlife
7.5/10
A worthy Ghostbusters sequel. Most of the kids were annoying but I suppose that's accurate.

Shock (1946)
7.5/10
An interesting premise with good performances from the main characters. Humans can be too conniving for their own good and this story exemplifies it.

Scarlet Street (1945)
8.5/10
More human conniving and all around bad behavior, centered around a sad and lonely man's situation. It didn't unfold how I thought it would. Well done and very tragic.

Just got back from watching Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City in the theater. It's the best live action adaptation of Resident Evil (and I'm a big fan of the games). Having said that, the movie was still "alright" at best. This was my first theater visit in almost 2 years. Was more excited to visit a theater after all that time than see the actual movie.

[YellowBeard]

Dhoom - Kept waiting for The Rock to show up and he never did, instead I got Indian Fast and the Furious. It was glorious.

Haha. It’s such a garbage movie.

[nutcrackr]

The Fifth Element - 8/10 very slick movie with amazing dialogue. Just great fun to rewatch it again.

[Silent-Runner]

yep, an awesome movie indeed

[JZL]

Agreed. I watched this a few days ago on Hulu as it was expiring. I bet I hadn't watched it in at least 10 years and sure was nice on a modern TV.

[SubCog]

So many great moments and quotable lines!










The only other movie I can think of with so many quotable lines is Ace Ventura.

[KAC]

Ron gone wrong. 7.85/10. Some good funnies. Making movies about misfit kids and robots seems to be all the rage these days.

[YellowBeard]

Haha. It’s such a garbage movie.

It really is. But I was laughing for the majority of it.

Just watched Dhoom 2: Dhoom Again - Still waiting for them to get to Mars and The Rock to Show up. Lot weaker than the first one. Went a little light on the over the top action and a little heavier on the Telenovelas romance parts. I know there's one more on Amazon, and not 100% sure I'm gonna watch it for completeness sakes. We'll see.


Still need to watch Bahubali 2 one of these nights. And kinda saw the trailer for 2.0 on Amazon and that looks completely nuts. They are marathons though. Each one is well over 2 hours.


Also, what's with the mixing of languages? There'll be a random english word or entire sentence here and there. That normal?


Dhoom dhoom dhoom

[KAC]

Yes of course that is normal. Also I am assuming you are watching with subtitles. The songs must be a riot to read through

[YellowBeard]

Gotcha, yeah was just curious as out of all the non english language movies/shows I watch they are the only ones I've seen that do such a blending of two languages. Was just interesting to see.

Oh yeah, they're great. So many songs about heartache in that last one. Title song is a hell of an ear worm for me at the moment.

[JZL]

Oh gawd, I still "Multipass."

I also still love "All righty then" from Ace. I drive the grandkids nuts with it.

For me, other quotables notables are Stripes and Holy Grail.

Everyone one remembers "lean, mean, fightin' machine," but for me it's Winger's parting shot as his girlfriend walks out the door: "You can't leave-- all the plants'll die!" [Don't ask me why, it just gets me]

I prefer, "That's a fact, Jack!"

[SubCog]

Those who wish me dead. 5.5/10. Angelina Jolie fights bad corporate guys in a forest fire setting. Reminds me of that Liam Neesen ice road trucker movie: an action thriller based on some blue-collar profession, including a corporate conspiracy that means to murder the working folks. Includes stupidly contrived story beats that fail pretty hard, yet still maintains enough entertainment that I didn't turn it off. It's a stupid movie designed to cater to stupid people. Includes a surprisingly competent cast...makes me think some good actors lost a bet.

[dodger]

I Robot - 7.5/10 Summer action flick, some of the effects hasn't aged well. Was on my to watch list a long long time and noticed HBOMax had it again.

[Dengin]

Dune. 6.5/10. Maybe it was the theater where I saw it but there must have been an eclipse on Arrakkis because the picture quality was dark as crap. Also, I don't remember Jessica being such a crybaby in the books.

Black Widow: 5/10. If The Eternals is the worst Marvel movie to this point, it has this one to beat. The sister's cute and provides comic relief but it was pretty damn bad.

[UberBeavis]

House of Gucci- Gaga is amazing, but the tone is all over the place.
I'd read the book this was based on, and the book seemed to make Patrizia Reggiani (played fantastically by Gaga) almost a sympathetic character.

It bounces from soap opera, to prestige drama and back all through the movie.

7.5/10 - it was enjoyable, with a good soundtrack.

[Kain]

Watched In the Tall Grass on Netflix. It was alright.

[Lazy8s]

Enemy Of The State with Gene Hackman and Will smith.

Fun popcorn flick

[bob saget]

Last Bond Movie

I kindda liked it. 100x more memorable than everything other than Casino Royale. Also some action sequences for the events towards the end were definitely John Wick-esque I thought. Obviously not AS good, but you could see they tried.

They were hinting at some serious diplomatic consequences towards the end but then nothing came of it?!?! They just never mention it again? I thought it would be a perfect segway into the next series of movies

[YellowBeard]

Dhoom 3: YELLOWBEARD IS A FREE ELF! I have finished the trilogy. Geeze, the last one was 10 minutes shy of 3 hours. Went more action heavy this time around which was an about face from the second one, was a little disappointed it was set in Chicago though. Had to wait until the ending credits to get the iconic song. Also got a hearty chuckle when all of a sudden there is a ginormous dam set in the scenic mountains of Illinois.

Hell yeah, gimmie that title track.

[UberBeavis]

West Side Story.

It was magical.

Steven Spielberg has made a masterpiece. I love the 1961 version, but this just hits all the right notes.

[dodger]

From up on Poppy Hill - 7/10. Sentimental story when the world was lots smaller.

[JZL]

Lo and Behold: Reveries of the Connected World . . . 6/10

Werner Herzog doc on the past, present, and future of the internet, with interviews and narration by him, as only he can do. Interesting, not riveting, with a nice mixture of tech and culture.

I watched it on Hulu; it's leaving soon.

[Nascar24]

The Matrix Resurrected - 6.5/10 It was entertaining, popcorn flick.

[acroig]

Tomorrow night......

[KAC]

The Matrix Resurrected - 6.5/10 It was entertaining, popcorn flick.

Wow that is high praise. Ok will pirate.

[MangaSpawn64]

They shut down theaters here Was going to see the Matrix but probably won't be able for a while.

[JZL]

Got wifey to watch the first Matrix tonight. Now she wants to see the new one.

[UberBeavis]

Nightmare Alley.

Beautiful remake of a classic film.

Not for everybody.

[KAC]

Matrix 4. 4/10. So bad that I really had moments of disbelief where for first 30 mins they were mocking their own movie. Wtf?

[Mangler]

Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City.

I've seen worse, the story was a weird mix of the Re 1 remake and Re 2 remake with some bits of Code Veronica.

It still managed to be more faithful to the games than those old RE movies.

[Elysian]

Matrix Resurrections - 8/10

[KAC]

Don’t look up. It’s been quite a while since I actually laughed while watching a movie/10.

[JZL]

We got HBO Max to watch the new Matrix and I loaded up Blade Runner 2049 just to check out the visual quality, and I got sucked into watching the whole thing.

I've seen this now maybe three times and I'm still catching things and it's still such a beautifully eerie movie. I recommend re-watching if you haven't lately, especially if you have a bigger better 4K TV.

[KAC]

Fatman. 6/10.
Naked singularity. 6/10.

[Kain]

Watched two movies: Hush and The Matrix Resurrections.

Hush was a rewatch after quite some time. Great movie. I recently watched Midnight Mass and rewatching Hush made me see the Midnight Mass reference in the movie. Thought it was pretty cool.

The Matrix Resurrections is the weakest Matrix movie so far. Very uninspiring action and acting. I still thought it was okay overall, about as good as what modern Hollywood considers is a "good" movie.

Edit: Now that I slept on the new Matrix movie overnight, I think I actually did like it. Sure, Neo is the weakest he's been in these movies and the action was also forgettable but everything else was interesting.
