The Killing is alright (leaves Netflix Aug. 1st though, so have to stick with it if I'm going to finish it). The Fall is outstanding. Yep! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously not the only reason, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was a contributing factor. TLJ really caught fans off guard, which is a little funny considering so many have been asking for something different, rather than the "same old same old". The problem with TLJ was that it was just a boring, incoherent mess. Didn't bother me that they tried something different, but it wasn't like Rian Johnson to make something overly complicated and empty. I have a theory that the true quality of a band / musician's album is reflected on the sales of their next album.

Not necessarily. Paul’s Boutique is a phenomenal album. One that performed poorly when it was released. Yes an outlier, but it happens. Movies are the same. Lots of great movies that perform poorly because they aren’t Transformers or Avengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen a previous work of this writer-director due, Spring. They like using super natural elements to delivery simple, everyday messages. Thanks for the reco.

Hugor Hill Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 12 Strong - 6/10 Been on a Michael Pena binge lately... 12 Strong is not bad until the climax when Chris Hemsworth becomes this indestructible superman. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 @Hugor Hill I like Pena too. He’s not a villain type, like Alan Rickman was so good at, but I find him funny like Rickman. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alflives Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 “Going In Style”. (The 2017 remake) 10/10 Laughed my way through this. The three old guys first attempt at stealing (grocery store scene) is hilarious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Puck Luck Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Hero starring Jet Woo Li If it any point during the movie I pressed the pause button, the picture left on the screen would fit in an art portfolio as the entire movie was shot and set beautifully with significant purpose. Also, the way the complex plot of the movie was told was unique in its non-linear style and unreliable narration and twists. In addition to the articulate martial arts fight scenes of the genre (and an appearance from Donnie Yen of Ip Man and Rogue One fame), the way the movie was presented visually and sequentially, along with its underlying messages about life and death and sacrifice makes it feel like you're watching a 90 minute poem. 8.5/10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJSkingz Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Ant-Man and The Wasp 7/10 Nothing groundbreaking. It was a fun, entertaining ride with well placed laughs and some really nice action. I enjoyed it for what it was. Paul Rudd was excellent. Evangeline Lilly kicks so much ass; I am in love. Stick around for the 1st bonus scene at least. The one after the credits was not worth the wait in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Puck Luck Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Just saw Dunkirk at the Omnimax (large dome screen) theatre in Science World. Its not my first time watching it, but I enjoyed it more this time than my before. Maybe because I know what to expect going into the movie this time. Rather than provide an emotional journey where you slowly learn the traits and personalities of each individual, which I find is the norm for war movies. Dunkirk just lays it all out there, showing the audience a spectacle and simplifying the movie into a thrilling and anxiety-inducing, determined fight for survival. As for the theatre itself, it was a unique experience as the screen really takes up most of your visual space, allowing you to become immersed into the world of the film. Which is why I think Dunkirk is a good film for this type of viewing experience as you feel like you are right there with the characters. 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugor Hill Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) In Darkness - 5.5/10 It started out really well, but had thrown all logic out the window by the end of the movie. ps I still think Ed Skrein made a better Daario Naharis Edited July 12, 2018 by Hugor Hill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
