I really liked Wind River so I am definitely up for that, just wished they had not gone with Sicario 2 as the title.

Just watched Mother!
Good film. The fact anyone had to discuss what it was about is hilarious :lol, it's so on the nose. A bit too blunt and unsubtle, but it feels like a filmmaker making exactly the movie they wanted to make, which I'll always champion.

I like how she needs a telescope to see that gigantic city on wheels directly behind her.
By Apollo Go To PostThat is the worst trailer of the decade.Apparently the lead is Sean Penn's girlfriend?!
Guardians of the Galaxy 2
Way too many big scenes undercut but dumb jokes but overall very enjoyable. The new additions to the cast are coolandDrax steals every scene. Probably better than every star wars movie. Haven't seen TLJ yet tough.
More thoughts on Good Time.
This movie ramps way the fuck up after the twist. Really good performances by everyone involved and the OST was good as well. I haven't seen many movies from this year at all but this is at the top until further notice.

I thought GOTG2 was dreadfully boring. Jokes crossed the line into crass and mistook that for funny. Everyone's characters but Peter's stagnate.
hopefully Max Landis can go back to Redlettermedia and try to explain whose fault it is that yet another one of his movies is bad
By RATHasReturned Go To PostDidn't he disown it when Ayer went Suicide Squad on his script?lol then my post might actually be serious and not a joke
Landis has never done anything good. Chronicle is the one everybody always holds up, but I really hate that movie.
Kong Skull Island was meh. Immediately forgotten 90% of the things that happened. I have never seen Tom Hiddleston be good in anything.

By LFMartins86 Go To PostHigh-Rise?
Haven't seen it yet, but it would surprise me if he's any good. I think he's shit in Thor, I thought he was shit here. No charisma whatsoever.

Says Loki lacks charisma but loves Boyega...
Anyways, Call Me By Your Name is the best movie of the decade.

Boyega shows more charisma and acting chops in attack the block than wooden charisma vacuum hiddleston has in anything i've seen him in
Boyega is not charismatic, and Hiddleston is full of it. Wtf are you on n8

Watched Hitman's Bodyguard. I'd heard that Coventry predominately features so I wanted to see how they portrayed my hometown. Clearly not a single member of the crew had been to Coventry or knew anything of it's existence. A city famous for being bombed to shit during WWII and having 50's/60's architecture does not have the kind of buildings that were being shown.
The film actually turned out to be decent, a lot better than I was expecting.

I laughed when they were at Coventry Police Headquarters and they were seemingly walking down an endless corridor.
Hiddleston was pretty miscast in Kong (though I still enjoy the whole of that film), but I do find him to be a much better and likeable actor. He's fucking amazing in The Night Manager.

MOST STYLISH MAN OF THE YEAR
You can't be stylish and not be charming. n8 laust
You're just mad that Tom is one of the few tall and handsome British men with a full head of hair and good teeth around.

That hairline breh
TBH I'm just mad that your ugly red headed step child of a prince is forcing Meghan Markle to leave Suits.
By reilo Go To PostYea that's a full head of hair for a British man. I didn't lie.His isn't better.
Don't be fooled.
Saw two today. I had planned and wanted to do three but just not in the mood after the second.
Disaster Artist was a enjoyable. Franco's did a very good job. Straightforward and they told the story they set out to tell.
----------------
3 Billboards wasn't just bad, it was terrible. Tonally all over the place and the soundtrack didn't help.
I really expected more given the quality of the cast, but at no point did any part of the writing draw me in. The first hour just slogs along spinning it's wheels when a character needlessly exits, and yet nothing of any consequence is added or lost at all to the core plot which involves the rape and murder of Frances McDormand's teen daughter.
Sam Rockwell's character in particular is more annoying than convincing as a bumbling bigot cop to Woody Harrelson's Chief of Police. It's fitting that Mac's mother from Always Sunny has also been cast as this guy's mom because this film doesn't know what it wants to be.
They're constantly throwing in incredibly lame and contrived dialogue from forgettable supporting characters that are meant to be comic relief I guess, but it all falls flat and not just because of the subject matter. The writing and execution is just plain poor.
The fictional town of Ebbing Missouri is apparently run by the dumbest police department West of the Mississippi. Nothing that happens in this movie - outside of the main murder - makes any sense.
Assault kids on school property in front of parents? No problem.
Beat the shit out of the ex-wife for years before leaving her for a teenager? Son is still excited to see me.
Attempted murder literally in front of a police station in plain view of police officers? Not an issue in this town.
Burn the police station down? Not worth investigating even though there's very clearly a suspect with clear motive. So much motive it's in the title of the motherfucking film!
It's just a dumb movie and that's without even mentioning the pointless climax and dna testing that could never happen in reality.
This is a made for TV version of Law & Order SVU the movie.

By n8 dogg Go To PostJust watched Mother!It's funny you should say that because a writer for the Ringer had this to say, while trashing the film:
Good film. The fact anyone had to discuss what it was about is hilarious :lol, it's so on the nose. A bit too blunt and unsubtle, but it feels like a filmmaker making exactly the movie they wanted to make, which I'll always champion.
Mother! was (I guess) a parable about a male artiste whose bombastic creations overpower his female partner’s creative energy
It was about a few things innit
Biblical allegory
Environmental allegory
Tortured artist allegory
Toxic masculinity allegory
All are so fuckin' on the nose.

I mean, look at how many people didn't get the latest Star Wars movie, which, lest we forget, is actually primarily for children.
