Spiderman (Homecoming) <Theater> *Marvel Fanboy disclaimer
Wasn't sure what to expect with new actor in lead role. Had heard RDJ makes appearances as a mentoring Tony Stark, so I looked forward to that and went in with an open mind. Came out quite pleased with the overall production. I thought it was true to the teenager Peter Parker, had a good dose of Stark and his right hand Happy, and was very pleased with Michael Keaton's portrayal of the Vulture. The villian role was developed as an average guy trying to make his way, and it just happens to cross the line of legality but he's doing it for his family given the current political climate. Special effects, dialogue, story line, all of it stays on par for the expectations of a Marvel film and it ties in well with the others recently released. 8/10
Wonder Woman <Theater>
Yup, snuck across the hall for another double feature. Everyone said this one was good, so I checked it out. I was actually the only one in the theater, so I suppose it's on it's way out. I will say I haven't been much of a DC fan, but I figured what the heck. I will state that I felt the film was good. Characters, action, storyline (for the most part), direction and photography. Really, I thought it was a good film....it just never really drew me in. I don't know if it is my Marvel bias....I think it was more the concept of Wonder Woman just didn't appeal as to me as well. 6/10.
Get out - thriller marketed as horror but still good. Black guy goes with white girlfriend to meet her family. All the other black people are really strange so he gets suspicious. The end game of it all was not what I thought it would be and was a nice surprise. This ones a little slow burning so be patient. Good performances from people you know. 7/10
I liked it. I also like Split which was about 90% thriller/10% horror. That one however I feel is a movie you will either like or hate with very little in the middle.Thanks. Been really considering that one. Haven't had any horror/thriller for awhile.

Ha! I also want to see Split but haven't gotten to it yet. Thanks.
Zambo approves.No boobs in either, unless you count primate nipples.
Saw it Saturday as well... I generally feel the same, but left expecting a little more.. I thought it was too short and could have done more to set up what turned out to be the majority of the movie(the beach). Enjoyed it thoughJust saw Dunkirk. Nolan is one my favorite directors so Nolan and a war movie seemed like a good idea.
The movie was intense, beautiful, bleak and well done. Not much dialogue and the little there was could be difficult to understand due to the score in the background the entire movie and the loudness of the movie.
Nolan tells the tale via land, sea, and air which made for an interesting dynamic. You could get confused by this. The cinematography is top notch. The story telling through picture and action is solid.
Check it out.
This was one of the best pics I have seen in awhile... fun, original movie. I loved it!Baby Driver. Great cast, amazing soundtrack, and some of the best stunt driving maybe ever. No boobs for Joe Bob.
Please enlighten us to some examples of "pro-American" films that should have won Best Picture in the past but didn't. And I beg you, please don't say American Sniper. That film was stinking hot garbage.Dunkirk won't win **** since it is pro-American and candy-assed liberals in Hollywood want to rewrite history.
It's actually not even about America or our troops.Dunkirk won't win **** since it is pro-American and candy-assed liberals in Hollywood want to rewrite history.
