Alien Covenant: 3 out of 4
Solid entry. Gives a handful of answers I guess. Setting up more movies but still good. If you like Alien and/or Prometheus you'll like this. |

Star Trek Beyond - 8/10. I thoroughly enjoyed the story, the action (that sequence at the end had my head spinning with terror, I hate heights) and Karl Urban was fucking great. He even made me laugh. I have loved these last three Treks so much more than all of the Star Wars and other Treks. I hope they do a couple more someday.

Suicide Squad - 6.5/10. I was surprised how well made this was. Will Swith and Margot Robbie restored my faith quickly and set the standard well. I was not into Leto's Joker at all. Jared Leto is an amazingly talented twit.

Getting burned out by 13 Reasons Why. Still have 3 or 4 episodes to go and the characters are really starting to wear on me. The explanation of why everyone is acting strange is painfully slow and then it still makes little sense.
I'm not sure it needed 13 hours to tell this story like it was fucking Game of Thrones or something. I'm still going to finish this, but it's going to be a grind even though everyone keeps telling me how brutally amazing the end is. |

Baywatch - 7/10 - I was expecting this to be like a 3 at best, but I enjoyed it. A good mix of raunchy comedy, action and hot broads wearing very little clothing....

Got Argo, Manchester By The Sea, My Left Foot and Tarzan waiting to be viewed. I should get two done tonight. I've seen My Left Foot but it was over 20 years ago and I remember very little.

War Machine: 5/10
The movies plot/message at its core was very good. An honest look at the nature of modern war. The failing are the characters. None were remotely interesting least of all the protagonist. I would say the worst part of the film was brad pits performance whuch might be a first. |

Is the War Machine a comedy? Kind of looks that way from the trailer I saw which makes me not want to watch it.

Savages. 7/10.
Enjoyable action flick with a decent story. Generic though. Also uses a cliche fake ending swerve that I'm tired of now. Still overall a good watch. |

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell no Tales: 5/10
Ugh. I REALLY wanted to like this movie. I love the Pirates franchise, I'm a huge mark for it. But this one just seemed like a bad Pirates parody movie. Jack Sparrow has been Flanderized so much. Fuck, the entire cast has been. Henry was basically a carbon copy of Orlando Bloom, and the busty chick was just a poor man's Keria Knightly. The whole movie felt like it was going through the motions. I get it, that's kind of what this entire franchise is, but it felt especially egregious this time around. |

Yeah...... Henry and Busty Chick both very much felt like Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly "budget friendly replacements"........... Both were not very good......

I'm actually kind of excited for the new Blade Runner movie. It looks like it's going to be the movie that Ghost in the Shell wanted to be

Jack has really become a parody of himself. There wasnt much point in really having him in this movie. Thought the ending scenes were nice. I need to rewatch this again to really see my feelings on it. If they make another, I hope its a more grounded film. They have done too many supernatural storylines. |

The film was being produced as Johnny Depp was going through a bitter divorce from his wife Amber Heard. He was chronically late to the set, to the point where it ate into the schedule as the set often came to a halt for hours at a time. It got to the point where a production assistant was hired just to wait outside Depp's house and announce that he was awake when they saw the lights inside come on.
IMDB "trivia" for the newest Pirates movie...... |

The Girl On The Train - 5.5/10 Would be lower, but I liked the ending. Other than that this movie was weird as fuck and boring.

Wonder Woman-9/10
Landmark film. Diana is strong, confident, and fierce as well as soft, bright eyed, loving and naive, and acts with conviction. Gal Gadot has officially arrived. Chris Pine was great. The supporting cast served a purpose to further Diana's character, including the villains. It was funny, dramatic, exciting and action packed. The scene where she comes out of the trenches is one of the greatest comic book scenes I've personally ever witnessed. Wonder Woman arrived right then and there. This film was everything Man of Steel was supposed to be and more. Hats off to D.C., Patty Jennings and the cast for creating what I think will be the definitive super heroine movie and the equivalent of Chris Reeves Superman when it comes to shaping the genre for female comic book leads. God I loved this movie and cannot wait to share it with my daughter some day. |

I had faith in Gadot from the start..... while a bunch of people were going around complaining she was too skinny or her boobs weren't big enough, I was thinking "she's perfect for this".

In all fairness she was rail thin. To get credit, she busted her ass and went from model thin to looking like an athletic well put together woman. She deserves all the credit on the world for devoting herself.
She seems like a genuinely great person. Which just makes her even more beautiful. That smile tho |
