The Films and Movies Thread

Die Hard With a Vengeance, par.

It got a little old by this point.

' The Nun' Birdie. But hey, I love horror films. This one delivered.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, birdie. Very cool visual effects, good cast… Just way, way better than I expected. Loved it. Not a movie you watch a few times (or even twice), but very cool once.

  This popped up in my Amazon Prime cue last night, and I'd never seen it, so I figured why not?

I'll give it an easy par.  Visually it's a birdie, but it loses a stroke for reminding what a dick i was in my twenties.

The Usual Suspects-Easy birdie. Who is Kieser Soze?

Ant-Man and the Wasp - birdie for me, but I like Superhero movies.  Lots of action and laughs.  Michael Pena knocked it out of the park in his role.

A new Mary Poppins movie? That sounds stupid. Watches trailer. TAKE MY MONEY.

Duplicity, birdie.

A good bunch of twists with some reasonably good acting. An older movie (2009), but one I enjoyed re-watching. I don't remember much from the first watching (probably in 2009 or '10). I remembered a few parts. But it was almost new to me.

Hold The Dark.  Par

   Interesting Netflix movie about some messed up stuff in Alaska.  I liked it, although it was very dark, and kind of gory in spots.

Looking forward to this:

   Dear lord did the original creep me out as a teen.  Fred Gwynne will be missed in this remake, I think.

Free Solo. Eagle. Very inspiring and gives me motivation to keep working on shooting lower scores.

Lol! Agree. However Pet Cemetery 2 was quite a disappointment for me. I give PC 1 a Birdie....PC2 a double bogey.

However....John Lithgow? Awesome. Gywnne a classic...but Lithgow top notch in my book.

Pet Sematary 2 was a horrible, horrible film.  So bad that it's one of those movies where when its over you're pissed because it's an hour and a half of your life you'll never get back.

A Star Is Born - Easy Birdie

Bradley Cooper was great as the trouble and addicted Jackson Mayne and Lady Gaga was also great as Ally.  If you take a lady to see it, bring tissues.

The Greatest Showman, which I didn't know was a musical… I give a bogey to. Partly because the singing was so clearly not legitimate (I'm not saying the actors didn't sing the songs… it was just so much worse than other musicals I've seen in terms of believing that they're actually singing in the action), and because… it was so badly misrepresentative of PT Barnum.

Meh.

‘Tusk’

Birdie. Nice bizarre film by Kevin Smith. Pretty much a rip from ‘The Human Centipede’. The dialogue from the character played by Bryan Cranston is quite entertaining. And the quirky detective played by a surprise appearance by Johnny Depp was a bonus.

Venom -tap in birdie

I did not think this would be very good...no spider man. Delivered in a big way. Venoms backstory was legitimate, scary, funny, sad, and real (as in believable for sci fi fiction). I never really missed spidey
