Jurassic World Dominion. Tap in par. If you like the other 5 specifically the last 2 you will like this one. New and old characters on screen together was fun.

Kimi.

Bogey may be even a lipped out double bogey.  Feels like one of those made for TV movie.  No suspense, slow moving in the beginning, etc.

Nope. In IMAX. Real, not LIEMAX. Barely a birdie. I appreciate what he’s trying to do, Peele, it’s not as focused as Get Out was but I generally like films that try for something but miss rather than play it safe.
 

The IMAX aspect ratio to me definitely added to the experience, noticed the IMAX camera usage immediately. Is it Top Gun 2 see it in IMAX no, more Lawrence of Arabia see it in IMAX.

It’s not straight up horror like his two previous movies but it doesn’t contain any less social commentary imho.

Knew that Steve Yeun was in this but also two surprise actors I know also showed up. One from The OA and another from Ocean’s Eleven.

Missed some dialog because of mumbling. So much mumbling these days. Will definitely rewatch for the closed captioning.

The Gray Man, par. It's got some good action sequences, though many are too dark/too fast to truly tell what's happening. Beyond that… same old story. Entertaining for an evening, but nothing more.

Ana de Armas needed a bigger part. 😉

Lightyear, tap in par. My 5 year old loved it. He also likes Buzz Lightyear more than Woody.

Bullet Train. Par but almost lipped out. It just was not as funny as I thought it would be. You could tell they threw some money into the movie not just the well known actors. Maybe I should just read the book. I think that would be a big improvement.

Prey - tap in birdie. A great addition to a certain franchise. If you don’t know anything about it don’t watch the trailer, just go into it knowing it’s an action flick. Too bad this didn’t get a theatrical release I would have certainly gone to a theater to see this.

I agree, I give it a birdie. I really enjoyed  this predator movie.

The Gray Man, tap in Par. A bit to frantically paced during the middle. I question some plot timing issues. The dry humor is good, and the action sequences are pretty good.

Echo for what @nevets88said.  I knew almost nothing about the movie other than the ethnicity of the main cast and that it's an action movie.  I had time tonight so I watched a movie and chose this one.   Otherwise same review.  Birdie.

Everything Everywhere All at Once was bonkers crazy, it was a little too much at times, but totally worth a theater visit. Birdie.

Had nobody else seen this?? What an incredible movie. Not a moment of it wasn't captivating or enthralling

I tweeted at the directors and they tweeted back! I noticed something about a musical bit and they said yep. We did that just for people like you who will would notice such details.

What Happened, Brittany Murphy?

Triple bogey. It's not really a movie, but I agree with what's written on Wikipedia:

Quote

In October 2021, HBO Max aired a documentary titled What Happened, Brittany Murphy?, covering the mystery surrounding Murphy's death. In the documentary, Murphy's 8 Mile co-star Taryn Manning remembered her as "free-spirited, whimsical and full of laughter".[55] After the documentary premiere, Daniel Fienberg wrote for The Hollywood Reporter that the documentary was "20 percent a reminder of Murphy's transcendent talent, 30 percent a dead-ended investigation into the mystery of her death, and 50 percent an unenlightening examination of Murphy's late husband", and concluded his review saying that "[Murphy] deserved better than the treatment she received in the media, which probably contributed to [Monjack's] ability to control her in the way he did."[56]

    • This looks like a better version of the Live View LivePod tripod. I just ordered one with the MagSafe mount.
    • Wordle 825 4/6 ⬜🟩⬜🟩⬜ 🟩⬜🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
    • I was lucky enough to get to try this product as well. The first thing I'd like to say about The GolfPod is that I was surprised by its sturdiness. I'm a bit of a clutz and even after dropping it in the parking lot or at the range, there are no signs of anything being damaged or chipped.  The second thing I like about it is the portability. As @iacas mentioned previously, a good tripod fits in your bag and that is certainly true.  Picture of The GolfPod inside its traveling case.  The GolfPod setup for my height at home.  Phone in The GolfPod holder. (Ignore the old phone used haha) The holder is one of the better ones that I have used in a tripod. It has a very firm grip on the phone and even when I tug on the phone to try and remove it has very good resistance. If you are on uneven surface, you can rotate the holder so you can keep your phone at the correct angle to film.    The last thing I wanted to highlight is the holder for the Bluetooth button. I think it's nice that there is a place to keep the button so you don't have to worry about losing it. I cannot speak about the functionality of the button as of yet, but having it on the tripod itself is a nice touch.  Overall, The GolfPod is a tripod I would recommend to anyone who needs one. It's easy to set up and use while you work on your swing. My favorite thing about The GolfPod is how easy it is to keep around by putting it in your golf bag. Because of its size, I no longer have an excuse to not film my swing while I work on it. That is an excuse I often give myself haha. But definitely check out The GolfPod and you won't be disappointed if you do purchase one. 
    • #12 wouldn’t be so hard if it wasn’t for the elevation. And the false front. And the wall. And the penalty area on the left with the terrain sloping left. And the tight tee shot that calls for a draw to a hole that doglegs right with tall trees blocking the corner, often resulting in having to hit a high cut on your second shot. Other than that it’s a pretty simple hole.
