Man, I have so many 'superhero' movies in the back-burner, e.g. Dr Strange, an old Xmen, Thor...just can't be bothered.

They're just working from home that's all.

This seems to be jam-packed with potential, and some big stars. And it goes all sepia to make it seem even cooler.

Wow if anyone wants a movie to watch...check out The Voyeurs...holy cow. That lead actress is something else!

Neat movie, shot where I live, and nice cover song too.

Wes Anderson's kind of humor is not for everyone, though.

Great movie. As well as Rushmore, Life Aquatic, and The Grand Budapest Hotel.

I agree 100%!

Have not seen the other two but I did see Rushmore and liked it a lot.

Watched Moon Fall, it was ok. Pretty unbelievable that the moon is a hollow space craft.

Sedan_Clan · 09-13-2022, 01:15 PM

Pass on "End of the Road".

To me, it was one of those "it's so bad, it's kind of good" movies.

Watched Morbius last night.

The two cops Tyrese and the other guy were so pointless. I read after the fact that Tyrese's character had a bunch of scenes cut that mentioned a superhero-like arm.

Leto was alright, but Matt Smith was wasted. To be fair, he is wasted in every film he does (i.e. Terminator GenSys). He is such a great actor but he clearly only gets to spread his wings on TV (Doctor Who obviously, The Crown, and now House of Dragon)

Stupidest villain arc. My best friend who has a similar disease sneaks into my lab when I wasn't smart enough to evade the cops and uses my secret mix to become an angrier version of me, but guess we have to hate each other now? But wait, he is the whole reason I actually got out of the jail cell in the first place...

And the cameo at the end? Great! except your in the Spiderman universe, so you aren't actually going to follow up with any of this. and are you MCU or not now?

You mean to tell me you didn't like this scene? LMAO.

Matt Smith is an interesting actor, he has the acting chops but his face is too 'out there', guy has charm/is handsome but I can never see him play someone other than the villain. There are a few other similar actors who come to mind, like Cillian Murphy.

Could be good and creepy.

Could be dumb. No critic reviews yet.

Let us know what you think if you do.

I watched I Came By last night. Didn't expect who died and who lived and who ended up being a savior.

It was good and but slightly odd to see Hugh Bonneville as a villain but he played a good part.
