Dolemite is my Name.
An enjoyable movie with some funny lines.

127 Hours. Damn good. James Franco killed it, most of the movie is just him trapped by a rock, but had me captivated the entire time.
And the amputation scene... fuck.

Marriage Story - Damn good. Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson were great. If you've ever been through a divorce where kids were involved, it hits home.

Very good, I really liked everyone in this, the cast is uniformly superb. Hated the kid though, by which I don't mean the acting. Is he supposed to be a regular kid, or have some learning disability or something, 'cause I found him super annoying and spoiled (giving up easily etc... maybe he was just written like that). Really liked on how a very charged movie there was some room for humour and nice touches (the recurring NY vs LA gag "but the space!!11!"). The score by Randy Newman was out of place though, needlessly sentimental in a movie driven by actors more than by plot.

The Phantom menace - A bit worse than I remembered.
Attack of the clones - A bit better than I remembered.

I didn't even notice the score all that much (need to go back and listen again now), but the kid just seemed like your standard, cookie-cutter movie kid. What hooked me was the chemistry between Driver and Scarlett. That one big argument they have in his apartment... man, brought about war flashbacks from my past. If nothing else, those two nailed it.

Revenge of The Sith - Still really good.
The Force awakens - Still great.

The Rise of Skywalker - I loved it! I felt excited throughout most of the movie, got goosebumps several times, got to laugh a lot and towards the end of it I was moved to tears. I'm not sure if that has happened for me with a Star Wars movie before. Such an entertaining and beautiful movie. <3 I'm so glad I somehow was able to avoid more or less all the spoilers before seeing it! Looking forward now to seeing it again. : D
The Last Jedi - A little bit better than the first time I saw it (which was a major disappointment). I watched a fan edit this time, because well, I felt that they can't really make it that much worse than it is.

The CGI Lion King.
If you grew up with the cartoon, thisone doesn't have the magic. ... but it sure as hell looks awesome. The only time you can distinguish the animals from real ones is when they start to sing. They don't do that in real.

I’m a similar vein, check out Aniara. what's Aniara? never heard of it. “When a spacecraft carrying settlers to Mars strays off course, the consumption-obsessed passengers are prompted to consider their place in the universe.” It’s a far more effective exploration of the lonliness of space than Ad Astra. More unsettling too.

6 Underground
Decent enough. Minimal storyline, some cliche moments, but the action is fast paced and visually awesome.
Ryan Reynolds plays Ryan Reynolds as always, not much there, but always enjoyable.
Lots of blood splatter, broken bones, and bodies flying through the air.
8/10 Worth a watch for some easy to get into brain garbage.
Now on Netflix.

6 Underground was actually unwatchable. I turned it off after about an hour. Absolutely horrible dialog, acting, cinematography, sound, everything. It was painful.
I went in only expecting a typical Michael Bay popcorn flick with good action and some explosions, but it didn’t even deliver that.
Not sure how you guys can praise the action scenes, it was all just super fast edits, shaky cam, super close ups, with session musicians playing some stock metal riffs in the background.
It was like a less than d-grade low budget TV movie, but not in a “so bad it’s good” sort of way.

Anyone ever seen the director's cut of Kingdom of Heaven? Apparently, it's amazing.

That Legolas bloke can't carry a movie to save his life. Here I kinda gave him a pass because there's Ed Norton, Liam Neeson, Brendan Gleeson, Jeremy Irons, David Thewlis, etc but then he sucked monumental floppy dick in Elizabethtown too.

John Wick 3 - has to be the highest Body Count next to Star Wars A New Hope.
I do wish Halle Berry would have changed her clip more often though. These 45 round clips take away the tension, a tad...
