Bad Times at the El Royale - While this has lots of star power in it, the movie is a bit of a mess. Jumps around all the characters as you try to figure out the mystery of the hotel and each character. Got confusing at times. Don't even really know how to rate this movie as it could come out differently after a second viewing. For now I give it a 5/10
Creed II - If you have seen the previews you know that Drago and his son come back to challenge him. Like the first movie it is a little slow at times as it focuses on the real life going on around him, and what family means. He jumps into the fight it at first carelessly with the first fight that ends controversy and needs help to find himself again. While good, it fell flat of the first Creed. The matches in them are good and you get the good old training montage, but I don't feel as connected to these as the Rocky films (we will ignore everything after 4). This one almost feels a little forced and seems like they took elements of Rocky II, III and IV and smashed them together with the story not feeling as original.
The Drago combination did well in their time with Dolph playing a good role as the washed up outcast desperate to get his good name back while his son has been trained for years as his way to do that, but the two of them grow together by the time the movie is over. Michael B Jordan does his usual good work. His characters don't seem to change much, but he has what he does down. The interactions he has with his lady and family are very well done. As for Rocky he picks up where he left off in the first one. Happy to be helping him out, but still full of regrets in his life and dealing with his being a crappy father at times. In the end it appears he has made amends and is ready to take a step back from everything. Still a good movie, but not as good as the first one. 6/10.
Johnny English Strikes Again - There is nothing award winning about this series, but I find Rowan Atkinson to be hilarious. James Bond spoof that gets a little to corny at times, but has enough moments that make you laugh. He is called out of retirement to stop a hacker exposing agents and the hi-jinx being. 5/10
