I watched Interceptor on Netflix. HOLY BALLS is that a bad movie. I mean the chick is hot and there are fight scenes so I watched it but good god it was a bad movie. [Reply]
Went and saw Bullet Train tonight with Brad Pitt... that was hilarious in my opinion. The plot was a bit of a convoluted mess but it was a good convoluted mess. Lot of great fight scenes to go with the comedy as well. [Reply]
The Gray Man was good - I'm sure it's been mentioned but - not Gosling's best performance but good. I recommend it when you find time to watch. [Reply]

Yeah, it's not some masterpiece, but I enjoyed the hell out of it. Some stuff I've seen has panned it, but fuck that. It's worth the time. [Reply]
It's really good. Not happy, not funny, but good. Good in a Schindlers list kind of way.
I will however, say that if you haven't read up on the Holodomor, do that first. They don't beat you over the head with a lot of it, rightfully so, it would take away from the execution a good bit. Without that background knowledge though, it takes a bit away from the story.
Fuck the Holodomor. Fuck Soviet Russia. Fuck genocide. [Reply]

I watched that during the pandemic when I wasn’t looking for this type of movie at all. Immediately knew it was going to get dark once it started to set up that it was about the Holodomor but it was well done. [Reply]

The Russos? I haven’t paid attention, why do people hate them? I mean Infinity War was universally liked and Winter Soldier is my favorite marvel flick. [Reply]
I finished The Gray Man earlier this morning. I had fun with it.
Gosling is kinda dull but Chris Evans plays a good asshole.
Spoiler!
I cracked up when Gosling ran out of bullets and couldn't shoot off the handcuffs and Evans' "You douche!" line when Billy Bob set him up with the grenade.
Have I mentioned that I'd eat Ana de Armas' ass? [Reply]

Ok, saw this tonight with the wife. Not what I expected at all. It was basically a love story. It wasn't a bad love story... just a love story for the most part with some cool story telling mixed in. Wasn't horrible but just wasn't what I was expecting really. [Reply]
