(That is one long trailer.) Lol

All I can say.... Believe the Hype! 5/5 for me!

I gave me a nostalgia from watching the legendary Toho earlier films of the 70s.
And the soundtrack... OMG!!! Dolby True HD had my Theater literally shaking from my recently upgraded 14in sub.

The Minister of War and Finance and I watched "Anna" last night-- It was fun as long as you ignored and accepted the obvious plot holes and stylized "super anti-hero" violence. We both decided we enjoyed it.

But, it was directed by Luc Bession (e.g. La Femme Nikita") so you sort of saw that coming.

It was interesting that the (anti-) heroine has only acted in one other thing, is *actually* an international fashion model, and really *is* Russian.

Some pretty big names too-- Helen Mirren and Cilian Murphy for starters.

Might be worth a watch with the Minister of War & Finance once I get back from London and Paris.

This was silly fun.
Good date night movie.

Meh.

Just saw it and a big meh. Got EXACTLY what I expected, it tried to be bigger, badder, supercharged etc but the entire thing felt stilted, manufactured, emotionless and ham fisted. The lead female literally narrating the storyline the entire movie to try and explain a series of incredibly "long bow" situations was terrible writing.

Great fights, outstanding CGI but meh.

TXSTYLE · 05-09-2024, 09:17 PM

This was pleasantly entertaining. It had that A Quiet Place vibe.
Cage is doing pretty damn good in his later years...

Alfisti · 05-10-2024, 08:40 AM

I like a good bug movie but that reeks of everything happening in the dark and you can't see shit for 2 hours. I'll still watch it because bug movie.

I saw the trailer yesterday in the theatre before watching kong and godzilla. It looks OK but man, Jackman looks old/slow/over it.

What we need is for someone to cut the Shogun series into a full-length movie.

Ricky Stanicky w/John Cena, laughed so hard and often.

The Coffee Table, a Spanish film.

WARNING: don't watch if you can't take intense stuff.

Watched this tonight. It was entertaining. 4/5

The Last Stop in Yuma County was entertaining.

Anyone see this?
VOD in Canada is weird for this movie... right now, seems only available in the US.
I'm a GR fan.

Alfisti · 05-13-2024, 01:27 PM

I like Guy Ritchie but yeah, nah.
