Have you guys seen the 2011 film Perfect Sense? I had missed it totally, and upon watching it was just like, wow, so prophetic!

Haven't heard of it but tx for telling me. It's rated pretty high @7 on IMDb.

Watched John Wick 4 again, this time with the lady friend. We both enjoyed it. Stayed for the short after credits scene this time around.

Elysium was not bad and slightly upsetting with it's too knifey scenes but a good ending for a change.

We are running out of things to watch as we are caught up on the series we're watching and waiting for next episodes. So I had seen the trailer for this a few days ago and thought it might be good. We got about 40 minutes in, my wife was falling asleep. I had no idea what was going on, so we killed it.

Entertaining but flawed film. Way too long, could easily trim 30-40 minutes and not lose anything. Visually impressive, but a total CGI overload. Very simplistic storyline and characters you struggle to tell the difference between as all just gangly blue people. That said, I enjoyed it more than most Hollywood blockbusters of late.

For the reasons you just mentioned, James Cameron is a hypocrite for talking shit about "Comic Book Movies".
I will finally watch it this weekend at home.

Hopscotch (1980)

Walter Matthau, Glenda Jackson, Ned Beatty, et. al.

I watched it with my father yesterday and had forgotten what a great movie it is.

Short synopsis: Matthau is a career spy who unceremoniously gets put out to pasture by his nipplehead of a boss during the height of the Cold War.

So, he decides to write a tell-all book and sends it chapter by chapter to various spy agencies.

And those spy agencies collectively lose their minds as they race to capture/kill him before he publishes the book.

It's a "literate" script with a lot of clever dialogue- although it's probably classified more as a comedy than as a spy movie. It's worth watching, if only to see how the world was during the Cold War.

Would be very interested in Heat 2 but not a fan of Adam Driver. Have found that people either like him or they don't. There's no middle ground.

I totally get that and agree, although I guess I'm the rare middle ground, even he's another obvious 'chosen one' the bigwigs decided to prop up.

That looks so bad. 5 minute story they try to turn into a 2 hr movie.

Esteban · 04-05-2023, 05:17 PM

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves

TTM0TION · 04-06-2023, 10:18 AM

So it's a spoof flick like Robin Hood Men In Tights kind of thing?

Alfisti · 04-06-2023, 11:36 AM

That actually looks half fun.
