Beyond the Hills
Brilliant movie about misguided/short-sighted good intentions. I love it how the director jolts proceedings with just minimal seemingly mundane changes of surroundings (that ending!).

Margot Robbie is the actress you a talking about. She's good in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, haven't seen her in much else. she's in The Wolf Of Wall Street with Di Caprio. I've only seen some of the film but she goes fully nude in it

I'm pretty sure it was full frontal. Did you see bush (I don't mean the president of 'merica) or at least a boob (again not the president of 'merica)?

The wrong Missy - A pretty hilarious movie and quite sweet at times too. I enjoyed it quite a lot! Thanks to spartanmcdoodle for mentioning it! If you (spartanmcdoodle) haven't seen The Heartbreak kid with Ben Stiller I would highly suggest you to! I think you would like it.

Teen Titans Go To The Movies
I love the show, it's up there with some of the funniest shows ever. The movie was good, fun, but a little disappointing. It had it's moments, but overall felt like a long, mediocre episode.

Da Five Bloods. What an absolute clusterfuck of a movie. So disappointing. Certainly no Blackkklansman. Spoilers/summary below.
So you think it's going to be about some Black Vietnam War veterans returning to old battlefields wanting to repatriate some of their fallen comrades remains. Maybe it will give some good insight into Black US soldiers during the war and their experiences/struggles when they get home.
But nah it's not that. I mean it starts off like that, then it turns in about 30 other directions. Some highlights:
- The story quickly changes to be a treasure hunt movie with the guys trying to find some gold they buried during the war. Sometimes it changes back to the story about the guys remains. Sometimes it's about civil rights. - All the flashback war scenes has the present day dudes of 70ish play their younger selves. A stylistic choice perhaps but a terrible one. - All the war scenes look like they are from a comedy and are in no way believable. - There's a heartfelt scene where they do find their fallen brothers remains, they swear an oath to bring him home to his sisters. You never see them actually transport the remains during or reference to the remains ever again. Then a few scenes later, one of the guys, for no apparent reason starts talking to the group while walking backwards. Then he explodes from a landmine. The others throw his body in a shallow grave and continue on with their journey like nothing happened. This character is never mentioned again despite being one of the 5 Bloods. There's no talk about bringing his remains home or anything. - One of the main guys is a die hard MAGA conservative for some reason, complete with MAGA hat, spouting racist shit about immigrants and 'fuck off with that gook language' etc... That character arc comes to a sharp halt a few scenes later as when street trader tries to sell him a chicken. The chicken incident triggers some PTSD and now he's a haunted soldier from this point on (who actually speaks several Vietnamese phrases himself throughout the film). - This same guy in one scene says he's not there for the gold, just to bring his mate home. - A few scenes later we're supposed to believe this guy goes crazy and thinks that a crazy Frenchman is working with the Vietnemese army to steal their gold. So he grabs some high powered weapons and his gold and takes off into the jungle solo, complete with monologue about how no one is going to take his gold this time. Then he falls over, basically drops all his guns and gold and then keeps walking for some reason leaving all his gold and guns behind. The next scene he's surrounded by Vietnamese troops and gets machined gun to death. Oh yeah and at some point a snake jumps out of a tree and attacks him. - There's some PowerPoint slides in the middle of a scene about a black athletics college athlete. - There's some footage of a Trump rally. - The conservative/PTSD/crazy guys son is there for some reason and falls in love with a Finnish volunteer. - The Frenchman is real and actually begins wearing the MAGA hat for some reason while getting into a shootout with the other Bloods, the crazy dudes son and the Finnish volunteer.
- There's 40 year old Vietnamese woman who we're supposed to believe was a prostitute during the war and has a special connection with one of the 5 Bloods. - We're supposed to believe the woman and one of the 5 Bloods have a 30 year old daughter. They all have a nice dinner together despite never speaking or seeing each other since the war. - The story, if you haven't realised by now, is convoluted, terrible and completely illogical and unbelievable in every scene. At one point some people just randomly appear in the jungle and help them. - The script is awful. E.G. "Ya dig?!" at the end of every second sentence, but not like a Black Exploitation movie or anything, more like a KKK guy from the deep south in the 1960's making a joke of how black people talk. But yeah none of the dialog makes any sense nor does it reflect how humans converse. Think "I hate sand" from Star Wars.
Honestly there's so much more to rant about but I need to stop and move on with my life.

Madagaskar 1, 2 and 3: daughter shows no interest.
Happy feet: even lesser interest
The lego movie 2: sucks, the first one is way better
Conclusion after a gazzilion kids movies: daughter doesn't like kiddie movies. She likes Superman, Batman, The Flash, Wonderwoman and Shazam.

Cool little film. I read Flea's book recently and discovered he was cast in this. He's the one with the rat

Birds of Prey: And the fantabulous emancipation of one Harley Quinn - Such a nice surprise! You shouldn't always trust word of mouth. I had mostly just heard bad things about Suicide squad (haven't watched it) and from the little I had heard about this one it was not positive at all. Anyway: I was glad to discover that I didn't agree. I really, really enjoyed this! Such an entertaining movie and I loved the visual style of it. I wouldn't have liked it in a Batman movie, but I was able to see it for what it is, and what it is is a really entertaining movie with lots of humor and really cool and fun fighting scenes. Margot Robbie is great as Harley and I hope there will be a sequel to this one with the same cast. I loved this movie for more or less the same reasons I loved the Deadpool movies. Here's hoping for a sequel to this one as great as the sequel to Deadpool was.
Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back - They started screening it at the cinema recently and I just had to go and see it. Great experience (even though it was the special edition version)! Even though I've seen it so many times I still got goosebumps during the I am your father reveal. Now I've seen all of them in the cinema except for my favorite, Return of The Jedi.

Original Mad Max trilogy
1st: awesome! Here and there a bit overacting (especially from the gangleader) but overall a really good movie.
2nd: good. I kept wondering why a lot of the gangmembers are wearing s&m slave/master clothing ...
3rd: meh. Same with the s&m clothing. And why has that guy a stick on his back with a head on? That is really practical.

IIRC, the gang leader in the first one is played by the same guy why played Immortan Joe in Fury Road.

Tomb Raider reboot
Decent, fun, adventurous. Angelina will always still be Lara Croft for me, but the new girl is okay. Fun, easy watch.
