Here are three good ones (all very different genres) that we've both enjoyed. A couple of them I didn't think I'd be interested in, but I got surprised:

I, Tonya

Snowden

Dark Waters

Saw I, Tonya. Thought it was pretty good.

All I can say.... Believe the Hype! 5/5 for me!

I gave me a nostalgia from watching the legendary Toho earlier films of the 70s.
And the soundtrack... OMG!!! Dolby True HD had my Theater literally shaking from my recently upgraded 14in sub.

The Minister of War and Finance and I watched "Anna" last night-- It was fun as long as you ignored and accepted the obvious plot holes and stylized "super anti-hero" violence. We both decided we enjoyed it.

But, it was directed by Luc Bession (e.g. La Femme Nikita") so you sort of saw that coming.

It was interesting that the (anti-) heroine has only acted in one other thing, is *actually* an international fashion model, and really *is* Russian.

Some pretty big names too-- Helen Mirren and Cilian Murphy for starters.

Meh.

Just saw it and a big meh. Got EXACTLY what I expected, it tried to be bigger, badder, supercharged etc but the entire thing felt stilted, manufactured, emotionless and ham fisted. The lead female literally narrating the storyline the entire movie to try and explain a series of incredibly "long bow" situations was terrible writing.

Great fights, outstanding CGI but meh.

This was pleasantly entertaining. It had that A Quiet Place vibe.
Cage is doing pretty damn good in his later years...

I like a good bug movie but that reeks of everything happening in the dark and you can't see shit for 2 hours. I'll still watch it because bug movie.

What we need is for someone to cut the Shogun series into a full-length movie.

The Coffee Table, a Spanish film.

WARNING: don't watch if you can't take intense stuff.
