I was able to get free tickets to Sound of Freedom. Pretty cool. Dont know if its any good. Think you can just go to angel.com and get yours. I got mine from an advertisement on twitter...or X whatever stupid name it is now. [Reply]

I just watched this one on Netflix and thought it was a ton of fun. Highly recommend it. [Reply]

My wife wanted to see it when we were in KC last week. I'm not normally the one to bitch out of movies, but I'm not good for that. I don't need child suffering in my life. I'll watch John Wick shred dudes all day long. But I'm not good for kids. Even before my daughter was born I wasn't good for it. Now I have a 9 year old daughter that is oblivious to the world. And I have no space in my life for that. [Reply]
I saw all of the other movies but cannot bring myself to go see "Sound of Freedom" I HIGHLY understand the film but, I have 3 daughters, all grown and married as well as 3 grand daughters who have wonderful parents - I do not want to think of these family members in this scenario. Just do not want to go down that road and be presented with that message. :-) [Reply]
Creed III was decent enough for Michael B. Jordan’s directorial debut. I thought the imagery in the final fight was a little heavy handed but otherwise didn’t hate the movie.
More than anything, the movie made me want to work out. Michael B and Jonathan Majors were huge. [Reply]
I've been on a bit of a WWII kick since Oppenheimer. So I re-watched Darkest Hour.
I watched it once and under-appreciated it.
1. Gary Oldman is goddamned brilliant. Churchill is a tough egg to crack, and he hit it. There were a shitload of mannerisms, mumbling, doddering, etc that he could have stumbed on and he fucking killed it.
2. Lilly James is PROFOUNDLY attractive.
3. Ben Mendelsohn was really good. I didn't even notice him the first time around, but he's fucking good. Pretty much every time I see him in something, he exceeds expectations.
4. I don't know what the real story is (probably not what was shown on screen), but the subway scene was goddamned compelling. The writing and camerawork were tight as hell and Oldman oozed charisma. I honestly don't know how you make that scene any better.
5. Of course the never surrender speech is rousing, but if they're going to hit all the other stuff, that is a foregone conclusion.
You have to be in the right mood to watch it - it's British, so it can be a bit dry, but it's really fucking good if you're in the right frame of mind. [Reply]
