I'd give both a solid 8.5/10. I really enjoyed Old Man & the Gun. Apparently, it’s Robert Redford’s swan song. Should be, considering he’s 140 years old. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was great! It's not gonna have you at the edge of your seat or anything, just a nicely written/acted/directed, quaint little charming piece of film to watch. The less annoying Affleck was good in it too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Baby Driver Watched it in the theatre originally, and have been spending the last couple days watching it again, but meticulously this time. Man, is this film a masterclass in editing. Literally everything in the film is linked up to the music, even when the actors blink their eyes to the beat. Unbelievable. I appreciated the movie before, but this time around is just crazy. Edgar Wright really set the bar high here. As much as I love his other movies, this is easily the best of the bunch, now. Which is saying something. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry Goose Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 X Men Dark Phoenix. Wow. I went into this expecting a terrible film. instead, I just watched what I think has blown the majority of recent comic book films out of the water. I &^@#ing loved it. But that could easily just be me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Coming To America - 6.5/10 Corny as hell, but even after over 20 years it was still good for a lot of laughs. Get Out - 7.5/10 I wanted to rate this higher, because the first 3/4 of the movie was fantastic. But the climax/ending was a let-down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I walked out after 15 minutes and went to our room to rewatch Red Letter Media Half in the Bag episodes. Very boring. Not because of the current hate towards Brie Larson (which I don’t give two sharts about), but because of superhero fatigue. In 15 minutes of viewing I could already predict the movie and what I was in for. Yeah the movie isn't bad, it's just boring (which in my opinion is worse). At least with a really bad movie, you can laugh *at it* (ala Plan 9 from Outer Space). Captain Marvel is like watching a hockey game coached by two Jacques Lemaire clones. Redlettermedia I think actually gave that movie a pass (I forgot one of the dudes names but it's pretty obvious he's a Marvel fanboy to the point I'd guess he likes Fox Marvel movies like the Fantastic Four - which give DC movies a run for the money in terms of crap). Their takes on the Star Wars prequels were hilarious though. Edited June 26, 2019 by NewbieCanuckFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their takes on the Star Wars prequels were hilarious though. I’ve watched their review a few times. It was more a “If you’ve seen the rest of them, why not.” They also didn’t like Fan-4-stick. Watched that review recently again, and it was a mess. Parts of it were good, but those parts were clearly where Josh Trank (director) was able to do a more dark tone, where it actually came across more like a horror film. But then the reshoots came in, and the movie was turned into an absolute mess. I’ve never seen them as Marvel Fanboys at all. More, as long as the movies are enjoyable and not formulaic. Captain Marvel looked really boring. Like you said, bad I can take, as it’s always fun to laugh at a movie. But boring is much, much worse. To me, I actually “like” the Star Wars prequels, because they are so bad. Whereas, I can’t sit through The Force Awakens. It’s super boring and terrible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLASSJAW Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 David Simon (The Wire, Treme) is adapting Philip Roth's The Plot Against America for a 6-part miniseries for HBO - the wonderful John Turturro is in it, and the still-foxy Winona Ryder has been given an opportunity to not embarrass the production, too great book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Shin Godzilla 2016 Japanese Godzilla film. Sits at 86% on RT. Yeah, how much can we really trust RT nowadays. But for a non Hollywood film, that’s pretty trustworthy. Great Godzilla movie. Much different take, as this is focused a lot more on the government side, and how the decision making that would go into dealing with something you’ve never prepared for, and the hoops government has to jump through to get something done, if anything.

Z.Kassian9 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Saw Spider-Man Far From Home last night and man I gotta say, what an amazing movie. 10/10 and possibly the best solo Marvel movie so far. Great visuals, great character development and great story. There is a mid and post credit scene so definitely stick around and watch those, also possibly the best mid and post credits scene to date. I love how Marvel keeps impressing us with these scenes. I'm just sad that we are going to have to wait 2-3 years for the next marvel movie...
