Sam & Kate (2022)
I wanted to love this
I really love the two older actors so I wanted to love this. I did not. This movie doesn't know what it wants to be; romantic comedy or tragic love story. It really fails at both IMO. And the ending? Nope. The chemistry between the two younger actors is ok, but I think her acting was flat. He was pretty good. I didn't feel any chemistry between Dustin and Cissy at all. He was just awful throughout this movie. Not his acting, his character. No redeemable qualities at all. Overall I gave this a 4 and I think I'm being generous. I really wish this had been a much better movie. I love Dustin and Cissy.
Extrapolations (2023)
The best show on television
I don't understand some of the bad reviews. It is thought provoking, timely, emotional, intelligent and scarily accurate. I absolutely love it, even though it scares me and makes me cry. If you don't watch this, you are really missing out. The episode with the whales made me sob, the episode about the Rabbi made me really think about how religion would play out with climate change crises increasing. The series as a whole is all tied together and is so well done and really makes you think. This should be required watching for everyone and maybe people would start really caring about this world and what we're doing to it.
The Princess (2022)
Way more fun than you would expect!
This movie is so over the top, physical and fun that it's worth a watch. Do you need to suspend belief? Of course! But the stunt choreographer should get an Oscar. This was a blast! And 10 out of 10 for female empowerment!!
The Old Man (2022)
Absolutely fantastic
No spoilers here but if those dogs, who are heroes btw, get hurt I'm going to be mad!!! Lol! Such a great show. Well done, superbly acted. I'm loving this!
Nightmare Alley (2021)
I expected a lot more.
Very slow moving and boring for the first hour and a half. The last half hour picks up but the ending is very predictable. I usually loveDel Toro's movies but this one is just ok.
Diabolical (2022)
More please!
This is right up my alley!! I love it! It's dark, twisted and awesome. I love Garth Ennis, Justin Roiland, Seth Rogan, etc. I cannot recommend it highly enough!!!
The Adam Project (2022)
10 out of 10!
Whoever gives this lower than an 8 out of 10 has not watched the same movie that I just did. What a great movie! It has action, comedy (of course) and emotional content. The kid in this is great as is Ryan, Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Garner, Zoe Saldana and Catherine Keener. Really great, fun, sad, exciting action/comedy movie!
Our Flag Means Death (2022)
Wanted it to be much better
I am a HUGE Taika Waititi fan but this is nowhere as good as What We Do In The Shadows. I am so disappointed! I was hoping for it to at least be funny. Not funny at all. And I love Rory Kinnear but his character is just flat.
The Tender Bar (2021)
Quiet, sweet movie based on a memoir. Worth the watch!
I really loved this movie. Very sweet and yes, tender, movie based on a memoir. No action no CGI. A movie about people and love and real emotional events in this man's life. The acting is superb, especially Ben Affleck. I'd highly recommend it!!
Don't Look Up (2021)
It's an accurate reflection of our current situation.
This movie is fantastic! Leo deserves an Oscar for this and I hope he gets one. This is called a comedy and there are some light hearted moments, but this is so much more. This movie is 100% accurate for how Mankind would react to this situation. It's how we are reacting now. The media coverage, Certain types in government covering up, The social media aspects, The conspiracy theories, The deniers of science and the deniers in the face of reality, it all rings 100% true. I'm not religious at all, but I found the scenes of people turning to their faith to be very realistic and very touching. What a great movie. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Destination Wedding (2018)
This is an almost perfect movie for someone like me
I cannot express how much I loved this movie and related to the two lead characters. Snarky, sarcastic, cynical, negative, depressed and out of hope for love and humanity these two meet on the plane ride to a destination wedding. They bond over their hatred of the wedding party and all things related to the wedding. They bond over their mutual lack of trust and hope for themselves and humanity. I LAUGHED through this entire movie and have never felt to acutely aware of my own personality being portrayed on film. The writer must be my secret best friend. .LOL. I cannot give this enough stars! This is Keanu and Winona at their best and I want to see them do all the movies together from now on!
Free Guy (2021)
Way, way, way better than I expected!
I loved it! Funny, sweet, good script, great cameos, and an original premise. I HIGHLY recommend. It's a real tribute to gamers and gaming as well. I enjoyed this so much! I will definitely watch it again.
The Family Man (2000)
Worst ending of all time!
I loved this movie in the beginning. It could have been one of my top 10. A take on "It's a Wonderful Life" only his alternative life is way better?? What's not to love? The ending. All the magic is gone and it's just harsh reality. Boo.
Catwoman (2004)
Give it a chance. Female empowerment movie!
This movie is not as bad as some say IMO. I watched this with my young daughter when it came out and we enjoyed it. Very empowering for females as lead superhero is female of course and villain is female as well. I thought Halle did a good job and I hate that she disparages this movie. There are fans of this movie out here!
The Peanut Butter Falcon (2019)
If you don't LOVE this, you have no soul
I cannot express how much I loved this movie. Hidden gem for sure. Shia Lebouf is one of the greatest actors of his generation. I gained mucho respect for Dakota Fanning from this movie. And Zach is a revelation! Fantastic!!!
Same Kind of Different as Me (2017)
The acting elevates this story 10 fold
I'm not normally into this tearjerker movies that are so intentionally done to evoke sad emotions, HOWEVER, the acting in this one is what makes this an 8. the story itself is good, but Djimon, Renee and Greg give wonderful performances. I cried like a little baby throughout this movie, just warning you. But watch it anyway.
Downton Abbey (2019)
Adore it!
I'm late to get to watch it, but I'm so glad I finally did. Absolutely great send off to my favorite Biritish show and cast of characters.
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
Phenomenal! Did I watch the same movie as the negative critics?
As a lifelong fan, I was 11 when the 1st movie came out, I thought this movie was damn near perfect. Gave us, the fans, what we wanted to see and wrapped up almost all the loose ends. Well done JJ and company. This movie made me laugh, cry, and cheer! I LOVED it!
Upgrade (2018)
One of the BEST movies EVER
I cannot say enough about this movie. Absolutely fantastic. This is my favorite genre and this is how it should be done. Action, violence, sci-fi elements, LOVED it! Not a single big name in it, but I'm telling you WATCH this! You will not be disappointed!
