Down by the River Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Designated Survivor (TV Series) Its like 42 minutes of the worst writing Aaron Sorkin has done. Also, why is it impossible for Hollywood writers to have a teenager not act like a moody prick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugor Hill Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Star Wars - The Last Jedi - 7.5/10 Rey spends half the movie training with Luke while the rebels plot another attack against the Empire (or other way around, doesn't matter). Half way through the movie Rey realizes her friends need her help so she leaves training early. Luke begs her to stay but she wouldn't listen. In the end Rey gets her ass kicked but nerdy Sith disciple but Luke shows up last minute to save her. Luke gets killed by the Sith Lord in the process but Rey gets away.

Forgotten/underrated thriller. ------------------------ Logan - Am I missing something?/10 Really didn't enjoy it. I didn't hate it by any means, but I was indifferent towards it. Seemed like they were so happy that they could swear and show gore for the first time, that they actually relied on it to make the film edgy.

Imagine yourself to be seated in that situation on a plane. And I KNEW she was going for the field hockey stick. I KNEW IT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down by the River Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Don't Breathe: Don't buy the hype/10 Didn't really find the movie as intense as it has been described. The whole 'oh, he's got a girl chained in his basement' started as an interesting twist, but then it had zero to do with furthering the plot. She just kind of existed, got shot, and things moved on.

Monty Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Volcano (1997) - Pretty bad/10 It had been 20 years since I last saw this "masterpiece". 20 year anniversary seemed like as good as time to give it another watch. Wow. So apparently only 50 people live in Los Angeles, because that's about as many people as you see. The dog saving his bone from the lava was the best part.

Tre Mac Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Unfriended - 2 / 10 Oh man, talk about being too old for a movie. The whole thing is just a Skype webcam between 5 or so friends who all get attacked by the ghost of a former friend that killed herself. Horror movies are suppose to be somewhat realistic for them to be effective and this one just flat out isn't. Pvr'd two movies off of movie central this week to watch: Wardogs and Kill your Friends, hope they're better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She just kind of existed, got shot, and things moved on. I don't remember all the details but I thought it was pretty good. The thing you talked about in your hidden comment is designed to give the audience a hint of what is to come if the lead character gets caught... Spoiler ...which she does, for a bit... The film loses momentum as it progresses towards the end though.... if I remember correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugor Hill Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Sherlock Holmes (2009) - Yawn/10 It's boring. Everything is rather predictable. The fake magic stuff is okay, everything looks nice, but really I'm not sure why people give it such a high score on IMDB. I don't know why they decided to tell us Irene had an alternative agenda from the get go. And since when did Sherlock Holmes become Jackie Chan? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 /\ Yeah, the Sherlock Holmes movie was pretty bad. Sequel was better, but only marginally. And they look even worse when compared against BBC's Sherlock series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the poster to Tron. Disney coincidence? I think not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
