We’re going to the new Hunger Games movie in a few hours. Will review later.

Was entertaining enough. Main chick is a Gypsy singer or or something like that. Way too much of her singing. Not enough action/violence.

Spoiler…

Was happy that the main guy…hero…singing chicks love interest…ends up being an evil fuck. Yay!!!

7/10

Next Goal Wins. 6.5/10. A few good hearty chuckles and one completely bonkers scene where a character is introduced and immediately run over by a bus and never mentioned again. Wacky...

Leave the World Behind. New movie on Netflix

4/10

Terrible end of the world movie filled with insufferable people who deserve to die at the end. Sadly, I think they all live.

Oh, did I spoil the ending? Good!

Julia Robert's Academy Award should be revoked after this movie. She was awful in it. She's slumming it bad here. The ending completely destroyed this film. Just awful.

I finally got around to watching King Richard on Netflix and it was excellent.

I highly recommend it.

I watched 2022's Babylon, starring Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie along with a giant cast of other people.

It was a seriously shitty piece of shit, like, the sexy stuff wasn't hot, the funny stuff wasn't funny and the entire thing just reeked of bad decisions from the direction to the writing to the plot to the supposed message(?). Fucking garish to look at, horribly inaccurate historically and overall a misfire on every level.

It was also liiiiike 3 fucking hours long or some shit. I'd give it 0 stars out of 5, butttt....

I found it inspirational. It was such a waste of money, resources and talented people, that after watching it, I was like: "Damn. I gotta make a movie. There is NO WAY I could fuck up this bad"

So for the inspiration, I give it half a star.

Yeah, my dream if I was rich and not so lazy would be to make horror movies with just the most blood and tittays that you could fit in them. And a good story too. But the kind of movies where the guy from Troma would say “isn’t that too much blood and tittays, dawg”?

Can’t see how that wouldn’t have a market, and be better than shit like your Brad Pitt movie. And be done in 80min, to not waste no one’s time”

Are the Terrifier movies close to this? I see a lot about them though I've not watched. My only thing is that there is a fine line between making you nauseous and being almost cartoonish in the gore. I agree that there is a ton of crap being made with major stars and big budgets.

Anyway, I haven't watched a new movie for a while. The last movies I watched were Home Alone and A Christmas Story, both for the 100th time. I watch them every season, and despite the silliness and plot holes/armor, I love them.

Soooo, over the weekend, I watched BARBIE, because it finally popped up free on Max or something.



It is...fine. Good, even. Maybe even darned good.

They really hammer the point of the movie a LOT (Barbie has a complicated legacy and the patriarchy is bad) but do it in a charming and self-aware enough way that it doesn't elicit the eye-roll that most movies that overdo it with a message will get.

The whole cast is good...and some of the casting was brilliant, like casting Emma Mackey, who is a virtual Robbie look-alike as another Barbie. (There were 3 actors total from Sex Education...Greta Gerwig must have fucking loved that show or something).

The only thing is, like, it was fine and a lot of fun and all, but I don't really see the "BEST MOVIE EVER WOO!" shit. I kind of feel like that comes from people who are so basic that they never really thought about any of the themes dealt with in this movie...like guys who never realized that being a woman is hard, or women who never really thought about Barbie's whole thing.

I'd give it like a 7 out of 10.

Then on a different night I watched 1965's Our Man Flint. Now THERE is a fucking movie



Strangely enough, it deals with some of the same themes as Barbie, namely man's unapologetic exploitation of women via institutionalized patriarchal thinking and ideation, but just lets you figure it out yourself.

It is also stylish, fun, has a healthy undercurrent of absurdism and amazing soundtrack work courtesy of the great Jerry Goldsmith.

I give it, liiiike, an 8/10. Maybe a 9 because I just sort of love it, even though I know it probably is not worthy.

Babylon is the definition of a "Vanity Project", and IMO not comparable to LA Confidential.
If you liked LA Confidential, I would check out Chinatown (1974), or Mulholland Falls (1996).

Ok thanks, I kinda see what you mean there.
And I've seen both of those films and they are excellent too.

1900

Gérard Depardieu touches Robert De Niro's dick.

Watched the 5 hour 17 min version.

Otherwise still processing (not that part) as opposed to completely forgetting I watched it.

Could have done without the cat scene. Closed my eyes.

I saw it twice this year, once on TV (Netflix I guess), the 2nd on a long flight. On the return flight the guy in front of me was watching it so I half-saw it again. I enjoyed pretty much everything except the dumb snake scene, but esp. the looooong tracking shot at the party and playing "guess the Hollywood Babylon reference". It didn't drag at all for me.

Plus if you're looking for historic accuracy in ANY Hollywood film, you're wasting your time. Llamas in Troy, most WW2 movie that edit out any real-life non-US contributions to the subject, "this film is inspired by true events (= we made it all up)" etc.

John Wick Chapter 4. 2/10

Huge Wick and Keanu fan, but this movie was torture. I had to split it between two nights to get through it. Plot was in the background. Fighting was the foreground in a bad way. Too long and tedious. Where the fights in the previous three movies was mostly artful choreography, these where like “less agile John Wick dispatching the Putties from Power Rangers.” All goons that were easy kills. Now imagine each of these fights droning on for 15-20 minutes. Some trivia was making it out to be a good thing that Keanu had less than 300 words of dialogue. That meant less talk, more prolonged action.

[TravisBicklesMohawk]

The Lighthouse - 5/10. No words for this mess of a movie. So much potential; the acting is stellar, but completely wasted. Yuck.

Invasion of the Bee Girls. 9/10 This one got it right. A bunch of hot chicks who kill men through sex . . . winner! Deducted one point because of a nasty gang-rape scene, so be warned.

Both free on Tubi.

[Hatchets Molly]

The Equalizer 3 - 1 out of 10.

I loved the previous two movies in the series. I love the OCD methods of Robert McCall and watching him mentally calculate how it's all going to go down. This movie had none of that. There were a few very small fight scenes, but nothing to the caliber of the previous two movies. Denzel is close to 70, so don't make an action movie if you can't do the action. Or maybe it was the horrible writing. 80% of the movie was in Italian (even Denzel's lines), which was annoying. I thought it would be a fun 1:50, but it was not. It was hard to stay awake.

Godzilla Minus One - Minus Color 10/10

The color version is amazing, but the black and white version makes the dread and doom of this film 10 times more effective.
The black rain scene is a great example. Not to mention that Godzilla looks utterly terrifying devoid of color.

Go see it now as it will be gone in a few more days.

[Hatchets Molly]

I finally got around to watching Oppenheimer last night: 9/10 with a qualifier. Nolan is a cinematic genius, and the cast was top-tier acting. I like anything with Cillian Murphy, and Robert Downey Jr. was excellent.

My only complaint is if you've read American Prometheus or have seen a good RJO documentary, you know what this man did and went through. Nolan and the cast still did a wonderful job creating tension and angst with a well-documented history.

She Shoulda Said No (Also known by several other titles)
https://tubitv.com/movies/8009/she-shoulda-said-no

I give it a 6 out of 10.
It's a cheesy, tacky cross between "Reefer Madness" and TV's "The Untouchables."
Lots of cornball, over the top acting, and plenty of theremin music in the background.

[Love_Industry]

"The Weekend Away" on Netflix. Wanted to watch it mainly because it was filmed in one of my favorite cities - Split, Croatia - but it turned out to be a decent murder mystery with more than a few twists. A solid 7 that I could watch again.

Much better than "Faraway", another Netflix movie filmed in the area (Solta and Brac islands outside Split), but the views there are great too, and for a throwaway romantic comedy it isn't bad.
