Entertaining but I thought it was a comedy which it was not. Fey has a ton of charm and she brought some humor but don't believe this is a comedy

I thought it was good but wasn't nearly as blown away as others were. Emily Blunt plays an FBI agent who works with some strange guys from other agencies who kind of write their own rules. At one point it appeared she was mad at them because they were supposed to wait to be shot at before returning fire. When they see two carloads of guys with guns they go on offense and have a firefight in the middle of a traffic jam. A) they shouldn't have gotten in the middle to begin with, they should have used the shoulder of the road to bypass. B) when guys are getting guns ready, start shooting. Why wait until a colleague is dead? Had some good action and nice tension in parts, just had a couple stupid parts that took me out of the movie.

The Adderall Diaries. Not the most uplifting movie.

Monsters University

Concussion. I still like football.

Concussion made football the equivalent of watching porn where you feel guilty for watching it. Still I will watch and the players know what they are getting into before they signed the contract.

Knight of Cups


Knight of Cups. I feel like I am in a trancelike state after watching it lol

If you don't like a lot of dialogue and a lot of narration this is the movie for you. It seems this is typical and what you expect from a Terrance Malik film

Gorgeous cinematography though.

Favorite movie of the three I watched this weekend. Even though they record separately, the onscreen chemistry between the two leads hasn't been this good since Toy Story. The conversation flowed so well you'd swear they recorded at the same time.

Jane Got A Gun...not very good at all. and that syrupy sweet ending was cringe worthy.

Elvis & Nixon...such an absurd premise. based solely on a famous picture. made thoroughly and unmistakably enjoyable through light direction, and embodying performances of Shannon and Spacey. the whole cast was just great. the movie, breezy and absolutely entertaining. this isn't a think piece, just a light-hearted look at what might have been in history.

They set out to make a sequel to Olympus Has Fallen by taking the same implausible plot and making it bigger, louder, and a higher body count. They succeeded. If you liked the first one and want more of the exact same, you'll like this one too.

Kung Fu Panda 3

How many different versions of "Kung Fu fighting" can you play during the movie and closing credits?

All this star power it should have been better than what it was. It's a 6.3 on IMDB right now and I'd have to agree with that assessment.

It would have been better if the movie focused only on Casey Affleck and Anthony Mackie characters The shootout with the Mexican gang was the only memorable scene.

Miles Ahead

Pretty good though I was expecting it to be excellent.

Agreed. Also I thought a die pack was something that had to be added to the loot by a teller, not already buried in money just sitting in the vault? Anyone in banking confirm?

The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane...very good. so eerie and creepy. Jodie Foster is just so good and Martin Sheen was equally good. the way that ending was shot was so well done. and i didn't know you were allowed to show nudity of any kind of a 14 year-old. isn't that some kind of law? anyway, very well done movie.

I think I saw that movie on MGM HD. Sheen was a creep.

Elvis & Nixon

I thought it was hilarious. Did not know Elvis was such a nut lol. Michael Shannon is great though not the first guy you think of who looks like Elvis. I have a craving for a maple bar.

Nixons assistants seemed like likeable guys until

Spoiler:
Watergate

Watching the first Death Wish. Not so enamored with it. The acting and effects are terrible. Bronson is so stiff...

I loved that Alex Pettyfer character went on to manage an early Billy Joel. Simply loved this movie.

Was disappointed in this one. I usually like McCarthy. Loved her in The Heat and SPY. Had a few laughs but this one was strictly a one time rental.

Too bad most people will ignore it since Nixon is involved.
