The Magnificent Seven - bogey. Even going in, not expecting much, expecting something formulaic, you'd think they still could of done something more interesting.Β

For some reason, I've read a ton about the movie Crash but had managed to never see it (aside from bits and pieces). It was kind of jarring in some places, and confusing in others, but I give it a birdie. Maybe a birdie that did a 360 and barely managed to fall in, but still a birdie.Β 

I also wonder what my opinion would be if I watched it like 3 more times. I have a feeling I'd either grow to really love it or really hate it.Β

There's Lynch's Crash and the Oscar winning Crash. Guessing probably it's the more recent one. I enjoyed both, the more recent one got mixed reviews though, mostly forgotten, like the Oscar winner that was theΒ silent movie w/the dog.

Shin Godzilla, birdie. This one was different than your typical Japanese made Godzilla movie and I liked it, more political than a monster movie, which was fine by me, iirc, did well at the box office in Japan, so we're not the only ones clamoring for change.

Ghostbusters 2016Β - Par. It would be impossible to top the first one. I thought the action was good and I like the actors.

Central IntelligenceΒ - Par. The Rock and Kevin Hart were quite good together.

I have. I give it a birdie. Though it was almost nearly a par… I enjoyed it more than I thought I would, and I liked some of the "twists." I put that in quotes because they're pretty obvious for movie fans, but my wife was - unsurprisingly - unable to see them before they happened. ;-)

Yes. Β Birdie.

Better than I thought it would be. Β Some really good performances coupled with some unique characters and a new twist on the storyline.

I'm an Anna Kendrick and JK Simmons fan, and I enjoyed seeing Lithgow. Β Affleck is not one of my favorites, but he did well.

The Myst (2007) - birdie. It's Halloween, no? This movie is so similar to The Walking Dead, I think Frank Durabont or Durabond was involved in this.Β

Poltergeist, the one from last year. Par.Β The original was awesome, but this remake wasn't too bad although critics panned it. Jared Harris as "the cleaner". A little too much on the nose w/reference to the economy, but relevant.

The Handmaiden, Doctor Strange - both pars.Β 

So looking forward to Arrival, this isΒ the movie I've been looking forward to all year. Will reread the short story.

    • We do not buy extended warranties. We will use one of our credit cards for the purchase that extends the warranty "x 2". Our thoughts are: a. if the item is a lemon, it will likely break right away and we can attempt to apply the original warranty or credit card extension. b. over the long haul, we will probably save more money by not purchasing the extended warranty and fixing/junking broken items out of our own pocket. The important thing is to keep some records of purchases so one may make a claim under the manufacturer's warranty. I recently sent back some Footjoy shoes for leaking and Footjoy did a reat job of making the claim process work very well. I had the original receipt, warrant info and box. Easy peasy.
