Haha ya this film "gun woman" is not for the squeemish at all it did not give the warm n fuzzies in the slightest. I was thinking it would be a decent background japanese gunslinger girl type popcorn action flick I could breeze in and out of the room while folding laundry and other chores. It wasn't that at all. Not one bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't really say anything about it because its very spoiler-heavy, but if you've seen the movie Coherence, it has a similar vibe (not as good as Coherence IMO). I watched about half of this 2 months ago. Need to finish it. Was very disturbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dral Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I don't post here often, but I do pop in frequently... Just wanted to say glad I'm not the only one who thought Sausage party was horrible... it's been a while since I've turned off a movie before it was finished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookie Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I Don't Feel At Home In This World Anymore 8/10 Man, Netflix must really be throwing around the cash if they've got the Sundance Grand Jury winner a month later, but I'm not complaining, thought I'd have to wait longer for this. The directing debut of Macon Blair, who starred in both of Jeremy Saulnier's movies. It's got a very similar style - everyday oddball characters who stumble into bigger, more violent territory - but is a little more uneven and slants towards the slapstick comedy side of the spectrum. I say uneven in that the first half is more or less straight forward hapless buddy comedy, then it explodes into a Coen Bros violent crime gone awry second half. Didn't like it as much as Blue Ruin or Green Room, but still look forward to more from him. Does have one of the best minor twists right at the end there though. Made me spit out a mouthful of beer and cheer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made me spit out a mouthful of beer and cheer. Watched this about a week ago. Was a lot of fun. From all the great things in it, nothing made me happier than seeing Melanie Lynskey finally starting to get consistent lead/supporting roles. Forever the afterthought, most known for being "the other girl who's not Kate Winslet" in Heavenly Creatures, she's finally getting the opportunity to show what she can do in more leading or co-lead roles. Her recent role in The Intervention and in the one above, is great for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM_ Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Went to see Logan last night. 9/10. Fantastic movie, nothing at all like the watered down stuff of most superhero movies. Bring your kleenex tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at her IMDB credits I think it must just be from small roles on tv shows like Key and Peele & Always Sunny in Philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dral Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Obviously haven't seen it yet... but thought I'd leave this here because the first one was pretty funny, and this one looks equally charming... WARNING: language Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Harvey (1950) - 8/10 James Stewart comedy/drama film about a man who sees and talks to a 6'8" rabbit. Stewart is awesome. So anytime you get an opportunity to watch him (it's on Netflix), then it's always a win. ---------- Crimson Tide - 5.5/10 Gene Hackman is terrific. 'Natch. Otherwise, it's a pass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to have most of their stuff way back when on VHS and a large portion of it on DVD... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riffraff Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Leggo Batman. took my son and two of his buddies. For about 10minutes in the middle there was some humour sequences surrounding the actual batman character. the rest was annoying noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 The House of the Devil Been about 2 years since I watched it. One of the best films that captures the 80s feel in both tone and cinematography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
