Sinners
Two hours of my life I'm not getting back
1 Dusk out of 5 Dawns
Damn that's harsh, I wanted a straight down the line gangster film, which it isn't, but on its own merits I can't see how it only gets a 1 Dusk. 1 Dusks (or 1 Slow Mos) are reserved for Zac Snyder films (except 300).
It’s like the ‘black’ Western that came out last year or the year before
So overhyped because of the cast

Finally saw the Captain America film with Harrison Ford getting his hulk on. Can't rate it as it did not hold my attention at all. Not sure I could find anything at all to recommend about it.

Even for a movie of that era it was absolutely ridiculous that Dr No summoned someone to his island and his master plan to kill Bond was to.........put a spider in his hotel room.......
Dr No was a crazy mastermind disfigured, monstrous and lucky to be alive. And his limbs were spider like. Thematic stupid death is a thing! Yes I had all the books when young(er).
It is critics like you who are making all the evil criminal masterminds leave showbusiness. Unless they are ex-wives with plenty of mushrooms.
PS being killed by a spider in NZ would be a great murder weapon idea as no one would believe it..You are the most unique poster on here, this is a baffling take on JB.

Thoroughly reliant on Pitt and Clooney's charisma and could have been shit, but was actually very watchable.

Can’t stand Clooney but Brad is always outstanding, I’m on the fence about this one

Better than John Wick 2

I feel like I just watched @kruse going through the motions of writing a movie review.
I don't want to do it again.

You've seen it or you're speculating? I didn't think it was released until August in Oz?
I like the first one but remember it being overhyped with people saying it was more realistic than John Wick which left me flabbergasted especially considering Christopher Lloyd.
Ballerina: Speaking of John Wick. Girl John Wick with John Wick in a longer than cameo role. Preposterous, but fun if you like the Wick series. Ana De Arms doing a slightly more vicious turn as her character from James Bond.

Pure speculation. But I loved the first and the second looks to be the same, even if there's no surprise this time - just fun without taking itself seriously.

Started shit, I didn’t think it could get worse but then McCartney started singing about vegetarianism.
I found what looks to be a pretty accurate review online….
“One of the most pointedly stupid movies I've ever seen; not gross at all but inane, repetitive, and specific in a way which feels like a calculated prank to test people's patience and earn three dollars at the box office. I have only respect for the gumption to make something this dumb and get it released to the general public; not entirely my thing although I cried laughing when the full weight of the opening scene hit and I realized the register in which this operates... so take my take with a grain of salt. Might've hated the tone if I saw it in a worse mood but eventually it settles in like you've unlocked the key to an elaborate inside joke. A throwaway Dewey Cox bit maybe, tortured out to feature length by some infinitely patient juvenile jester: please, stop fighting here in this Scottish cottage.
Sky Elobar started his portion of the intro by sighing with resignation, pausing, then saying "it is what it is." It sure is dude.”
This movie looks absolutely atrocious.
@MiketheSnow I want to you have a long hard think before you share anything again.
