I posted above about JW4 making so much money on it's opening weekend, but TBH, I didn't love them either. Just posting what I read in the news.

Ripley had to survive to continue with the series, shame about the others and detonating the iron ore transporter ship wasn't her finest hour.

Just as silly as the first two, but they were youngsters then and could get away with acting that way. Overall I thought it was dumb and I don’t recommend it.

Watching this now, there's an armed traitor in the mountain lodge..

I thought the first one was great, the second was alright, the third one was like meh.

Me too, but I love action and Keanu, so I'm in for the 4th one.

^ I'll probably watch it when it comes to my TV for free.

From just watching the last Bill and Ted all I can see is Keanu playing Ted Logan.

M5Rick · 03-28-2023, 04:58 PM

Bad Company. Rock rocks in this one.

tranquility · 03-29-2023, 01:48 AM

Plane by Gerard Butler. Go in blind like I did, great action flick. Oh, worst flight EVER lol.

Tend to agree.
First decent.
Sequels watchable, but not great.
Will watch the 4th, because, why not.

Lamborghini: The Man Behind the Legend, not a bad watch for car lovers.

Funny you mention this. I had the house to myself for a few hours yesterday and thought I might watch this and then saw the reviews that called it "unwatchable". I suspect car people might enjoy it though. Next time my bride is away I might cue it up and see if it's watchable.

No, ironically, I suspect that the 'typical' car ppl will *not* like it because it doesn't focus as much on the cars as some may have liked. However, I was ok w that as they tried to focus more on the person (it's also a short film just being over 1.5h and I would've liked to have seen more).

It's not a great film but it was definitely watchable. Some ppl were comparing it poorly to Ford vs Ferrari and I thought that it was an unfair and silly comparison. As we all know, there isn't the usual struggle-leading-to-triumph movie arch as this was based on real-life and ofc while Lamborghini made his mark, he didn't really topple his Modena rival.

Have you guys seen the 2011 film Perfect Sense? I had missed it totally, and upon watching it was just like, wow, so prophetic!

Haven't heard of it but tx for telling me. It's rated pretty high @7 on IMDb.

BMW F22 · 04-01-2023, 05:51 AM

Watched John Wick 4 again, this time with the lady friend. We both enjoyed it. Stayed for the short after credits scene this time around.

I’m watching it again tomorrow morning!

Elysium was not bad and slightly upsetting with it's too knifey scenes but a good ending for a change.

Murf the Surf · 04-02-2023, 09:31 AM

We are running out of things to watch as we are caught up on the series we're watching and waiting for next episodes. So I had seen the trailer for this a few days ago and thought it might be good. We got about 40 minutes in, my wife was falling asleep. I had no idea what was going on, so we killed it.
