Which movie did you watch lastֻ

Angel of Mine 2019

Good performances by the two main actresses.

Sweet Carolina (2021)
Marketing executive, Josie, returns home when she becomes the unexpected guardian of her niece and nephew. While there, she reconnects with Cooper, her high school boyfriend.

finalizing Hitchcock.
Frenzy.

it is a predecessor to Silence of The Lambs.
there are multiple points of comparison. for example:

1. the audience knows who is who from the beginning.
2. the “chase” is the conflict. can the killer be caught?
3. more importantly, HOW will the killer be caught?

off point: these kind of movies allowed us to wonder if the old legends of Vampires, Werewolves, and
whatever were just stories about actual ancient serial killers with some extra “boogie-man” emphasis.

good movie!

Gonna watch that looks good!

I watched https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8695030/ the other day, always liked Bill Murray, especially Ground Hog Day, Ghostbusters, Garfield, but wondering why!

Was he just bored?

No Sudden Move…without spoilers, our opinion:

1. we turned on the CC. could not accurately hear what they were saying sometimes. rewind did not help.
2. movie was set in 1954. the $64K Question game show started in ’55. yes, we are that movie nerdy.
3. fisheye lens. just stop. no more.

regardless, it was still entertaining and worth the rental cost.
it would not have been worth movie theatre ticket prices, though.

“The Dead Don’t Die” was Murray’s fourth movie collaboration with Jim Jarmusch - they’re friends. I’ve read that Jarmusch said he made this movie so he could spend time with friends, but that might not be the whole story. Tilda Swinton reportedly suggested the idea to Jarmusch. There are many references in the movie to Ohio (Jarmusch’s home town was Akron, OH), and also to “Night of the Living Dead.”

While this movie isn’t considered by many to be Jarmusch’s best effort, ironically it was the first of his movies to be given a wide release (600+ screens). It also was the opening movie at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival.

So it wasn’t me! Couldn’t hear a thing! thought my speakers died or something.

The Tomorrow War (2021)

A family man is drafted to fight in a future war where the fate of humanity relies on his ability to confront the past.

I actually liked this one, sounded a bit weird but was OK.

I can’t see the images from your review, or the latest here. But I still see the images here:

Even in a browser where I’m not logged in to my joogle account.

Can ’ya see this one?

Yeh.

El Camino - A Breaking Bad Movie

very good, watching it the 2nd time

I love that song at the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2DyPVDIpTM

The Dig (2021)

On the eve of World War II, a British widow hires a self-taught archaeologist to dig up mysterious formations on her land, leading to a staggering find.

Based on a true story.

I saw Final Destination (2000).

The acting is pretty typical for a horror movie.

The music is excellent.

The movie is somewhat entertaining, but there are some boring parts.

It's just okay.

I saw Final Destination 2 (2003).

It's not very often that Part 2 of a series is even a little bit better than Part 1, but in this case it happened.

I don't have anything else to say about this sequel.

I saw the new Black Widow. I kind of like the idea of seeing a show/movie about Soviet Captain America, origins etc. The movie itself was okay.

Other’n what’s on teevee (so I can do Other Stuff while it’s on as well), I only had time for a few shorts, which I could watch in one sitting.

Me 3.769”, which wasn’t at all what I thought it was going to be. Only looked at imdb after I watched it. It’s a short, like 10min long, so came’n’went pretty quickly. Interesting enough, kid wants to be more “developed”, and has a rather unexpected and unpleasant encounter with a relative. Any more and I’d spoil it completely.

Eh, for 10min it’s definitely worth a watch, pretty good development in that time in both story and characters. Well, more like 7min ’cause there was about 3min of credits at the end.

Next up was “Flight”, which was surprisingly good. Jamaican flick, seemed “authentic”, about a boy who’s got his sights set on the stars and wants to travel to the moon, despite his dad’s rather brusque way of trying to squash that dream.

You kinda expect the dad to be an asshat, but that one moment of revelation about 2/3 of the way in should have you reaching for a tissue, especially watching dad’s performance, quite moving, even though it ended up being a feelgood flick. :slight_smile:

Only 13min long, and it said everything it had to say in those 13min.

Last up, “Her Body”, another 10min flick. More horror than drama, a woman wakes up wrapped in plastic, left for dead, to be handed off to body-traffickers. Well, surprise, she’s alive, and she’s got to fight for survival while her kick-ass sister tries to find her.

Short, but surprisingly good. Definitely worth the watch.

3 for 3, pretty good.

Come True 2020, nice horror movie :disguised_face:

The Tomorrow War.

Worth a watch, but it borrows a lot and it’s not exactly an homage.
