Just finished Best of Y & T compilation. Every few years I have to remind myself how awesome Dave Meniketti is.

Nocturnal Animals - 2016 - Jake Gyllenhaal and Amy Adams. 8/10 Pretty good psycho-thriller with an open ending that leaves you wondering???

Not surprised. She rocks hard in Orphan Black...

Moonlight. 4/10. Very little happens in this film. By far the slowest and least interesting of all the 2016 Best Picture nominees that I've seen. Only Arrival comes close. Much preferred Hell Or High Water, Hacksaw Ridge and Hidden Figures...

Hidden Figures - 8/10. The whole "running half a mile" to the bathroom bit got a bit tiresome, especially since it didn't actually happen...

Been listening to the new Hardline CD Human Nature quite a bit lately. Review coming...hold your breath!

Finding Dory - 6/10. Barely half the film Finding Nemo was...

Hacksaw Ridge. 8/10. Pretty intense anti-war war film with some fine performances. Vince Vaughn has never been better. Airborne appendages galore!!!

Everybody Wants Some - 7/10. I guess I was expecting more. Not as good as Dazed and Confused but a worthy companion piece. R rated comedies should really feature more than just 1 exposed breast!

The Intern with De Niro and Hathaway. 6.5/10. Pleasant enough diversion with a few chuckles even if very lightweight...

Slummed it a bit Saturday night with a Liam Neeson thriller A Walk Through the Tombstones. Very enjoyable for what it was. Liam has a certain skill set and knows how to use them...

Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982) A "classic" that lived on to its reputation 8.5/10 had no idea Forest Whitaker, Nicolas cage, Anthony Edward, Eric Stolzs were in it, take spicolli out and it would be even better I've long contended that Spicoli was Sean Penn's greatest career achievem...

The Revenant - 8.5. Would have been a 9 or 9.5 if they had employed an editor. Yet another film that's at least 20 minutes too long with seemingly endless scenes of Leo wading through and floating down frozen mountain rivers and crawling on his belly across the snow grunting. No he doesn't actually...

Bad Words - 2013 - Jason Bateman stars and directs. Pretty mediocre comedy about a 40 year old genius 8th grade dropout that finds a loophole that allows him to enter the national spelling bee. 6.5 out of 10. Best thing about it was it knew when to quit and didn't overstay it's welcome. The little ...

Had family movie night Saturday as my daughter surprised us with an unexpected visit home from college over the weekend. Showed the kids Minority Report. Solid 8.5 out of 10. Main complaint was the length...trim 15-20 mins of that puppy and it's perfect.

Sling Blade (1997) - 8/10 Billy Bob is amazing. That's a very special film for me and my wife. It was the last thing we watched before our first child (daughter) was born. I thought you were gonna say that his character reminded her of you. Well yes there's that too but I reckoned you all would jus...

We had family classic movie night last night and viewed This is Spinal Tap. 10/10 of course. My 18 yo daughter loved it but my 15 yo son who just started playing guitar couldn't be bothered. Made me want to cry, cry, cry all the way home...

Jurassic World in 3D. I was really enjoying this film and totally prepared to give it a 7 or even 7.5 until the ridiculous ending which brought the final down to a 6. Effects and 3D are great. Some good thrills and chills that made my wife and daughter jump a couple of times. I understand the need t...

I love the Wachowskis. They almost never let me down, so I will definitely check this out. Are they the ones responsible for Sense8? I've given it five episodes on Netflix and can't take it anymore. Horrible. Yep I was pretty excited for this but after 4 episodes it's been pretty hit and miss. 1 an...

Jupiter Ascending It's a fun film, could watch it with the 12 y/o...I could watch it again. Visually beautiful, though I feel like it's made for a younger audience. I'm going to have her watch Heathers. Movie was critically slammed but I was one of the few who saw and enjoyed it. But I'm a sucker f...

Tomorrowland - 7.5/10. Excellent effects, good story, great humor. Really pretty magical and you feel like you really are in another world at times. Only drawback is that like most movies these days it was about 15-20 minutes too long...

You mean the Frieda chick? The Kerri Russell movie was Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, but I know what you meant.

Sorry oops yes that's the one.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes - 8/10. Excellent CGI, pretty good story and sufficient action. But mostly because Kerri Russell!

John Wick- 8.5 out of 10. The killing/fighting scenes comprise some of the most beautifully choreographed/artistic depictions for brutal violence ever. Keanu nails it...

This is where i leave you (2014) Jason bateman, Tina fey Adam Driver Fun movie 7.5/10 Wife and I watched it Saturday night. I'd rate it about the same. Not normally my type of movie but it was Mother's Day weekend after all. Got a kick out of the recurring Jane Fonda fake boobs jokes. "Wow, th...

Another movie where Eva Green gets her tits out. Another movie that pales compared to the first.

The topless swordfight scene was pretty epic!

Woosh wrote:I watched Blade Runner again. Yep, it's still an 11.

Modified slightly cause it's my favorite move of all time.

Citizenfour. 10/10. That is if you like having the holy beejezus scared out of you... Privacy is a thing of the past....

Watched Walk of Shame with Elizabeth Banks with the wife on Valentine's.
Entertaining enough for a 1 star sleazy sex comedy. I'll give it 6.5 out of 10...
