Has last week off, and ended up going to see 2 movies in theatre Naked Gun - 6/10. Was a huge fan of the original - this new one isn't terrible, but pales in comparison to the OG. Weapons - 6/10. Film is well produced and technically very good, but the story feels a bit silly towards the end. (also ...

i made my wife try watching Severance 3-4 times over the past year before she finally got into it. she thought it was boring and depressing/bleak at first. (she still thinks it's kinda bleak though)

apparently you can still find it in and around South Africa.

Schmucks sucked! Had such great potential... but very few real funny moments. "The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call - New Orleans" with Nicholas Cage was surprisingly very very good! Nicholas' best role in many years. the new 'Rush' documentary was super good. "The White Ribbon" - ge...
