Margaret Qualley who I love plays a lesbian chick. I wouldn't bother watching this. It has some Coen vibes early (as it's directed by one) but largely forgettable. The Aussie who was the co-lead should have a good career in Hollywood though I think, I like her.

Binged the first three Expendables. They definitely lower in quality as they go but Banderas was worth watching 3. I looked at the fourth movie's cast and checked out.
How does the Bone Collector stack up. That one is a pretty solid film but not executed as well.
Asteroid city. What a visual feast. Enjoyable and 3.5

I really enjoyed the french dispatch. Thought it was very close to a masterpiece.Asteroid city. What a visual feast. Enjoyable and 3.5
Asteroid city on the other hand was one of the worst movies ive ever seen. Just nothing intellectual or clever i could grab on to.

The plot starts relatively quickly, as we get to know the Americans and Russians who star in it. It’s no high art with its themes, and the plot is played super straightforwardly. That is no issue, as there is some padding in between more character interactions. The CGI is beautifully done, save for a few parts of it. The acting is sincere, and the action is well-executed. The world below is at war, yet we are given little context. All you know is the US has been nuked, and later, what looks like Europe, too. The biggest disappointment of the movie was the mediocre ending. Overall, though, it was a cool little thriller set on the International Space Station. 6/10 (Above Average)

Whelp. Looks like I have to put Arrival on the watchlist.
Had never even heard of it until today.

Definitely steer clear of the Charlie sheen movie of the similar name

Yeah, it's a brilliant film and one I've watched quite a few times now and it's like you find something new in it each time.

I loved the cinematography. Bradford Young combined large scale shots around the alien spaceship with close intimate moments of Louise (Amy Adams) and her daughter.
The score missed out on a probable Oscar because it featured some of Max Richter's work that had already been used in Shutter Island.
Much of the linguistic stuff went over my head but apparently it was well grounded. I would have been OK if they had spent a few more minutes going from exchanging simple words to 'thinking like a heptapod'. The montage with a Jeremy Renner exposition voice-over felt very inserted.
My initial thoughts after watching it were questioning why we live in a world where nations are in violent conflict. Naive, I know.
I’m gonna watch this tonight, thanks to you Jatzy
I reckon it’s got the best depiction of a panic attack I’ve ever seen. It was a great movie to watch with my kids and started a lot of big conversations with them.
Will be a good one to revisit with him in a couple of years. My youngest (4) enjoyed it but his brother (6) learnt a heck of a lot. I even got to explain puberty afterwards

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice
I think a high-level pre-production meeting with director Tim Burton went something like this:
Section Heads: So Tim, how weird would you like your new movie Beetlejuice-Beetlejuice to be?
Tim Burton: Yes
