Coming 2 America. The only nice thing to say about this is that Eddie and Arsenio look amazing after 30 years. Christ what a shit film.
Well this review has damn well broken my heart.
Did Randy Watson and Reverend Brown turn up ?
Maybe. I stopped watching about an hour in. It’s so shit. Damn these 80s film destroyers. Can you believe they’re also making another Indy film?
I guess I can still cling to Kobra Kai. I’m also praying that Top Gun 2 won’t be total shit.
Given how shite the 4th one was it’s highly doubtful I’ll watch the 5th.

I never watched the 4th one. I took “Last Crusade” literally.

The Tomorrow War
Time travel version of Aliens and Starship Troopers. Much, much worse than it sounds.

ah that sucks, had that pegged to watch with my daughter over the w/e - still worth it if I go in with low expectations?

Yeah, watched it on the weekend and whilst I agree, it wasn't great, it is still watchable, especially with a child /teen and low expectations.

Very low. One for the kids.

A cross between those movies sounds exceptional.
Mind you Tenet ( cross between Bond and Back to the future ) sounded good but wasn’t so I’m not falling for that again.

I think you actually need to watch it to decide yourself. You'll know a short time into it whether it's worth it for you.
I want to watch Tomorrow War as the concept sounded good, and they've done a Pitch Meeting of it on Screen Rant that I want to watch, but you have to see the movie first. I wish I had watched it when it was first released before I heard any feedback about it.

It’s a great big FUCK NO from me. I really like Nolans previous work but this was just self indulgent awfulness. Denzels son is really bad in the two movies I’ve seen from him……actually another cool black dude Danny Glover has a son that’s quite shite in comparison too but I digress….
Tenet seems to be a movie that divides people so you should probably decide for yourself. @Nepia is a fan, I’d love to read a @Kruse review on it too.

I forgot to mention Prometheus and
Day after TomorrowArmageddon and Independence Day. Whoever wrote the script watched those too.The effects are well done, no surprise, it's 2021 after all. The script is lazy and schmaltzy with gaping holes of common sense. For kids that haven't seen a lot of movies, they'll probably be thrilled with the action.

Weird, I've really liked him the two movies I've seen him in. On Tenet, I'm a need to watch it again to really evaluate it, but Denzel Jnr is the best thing about it - I can't stand the female character and actress and Branagh was pretty average in a nothing role. The vampire kid was decent.
But my point was, @voodoo only needs to watch about 20 odd minutes and he'll know whether it's worth watching. Edit: missed your last sentence originally so disregard this.

I like Prometheus the more I see it ( a few times now ) I think it helps set up the Alien universe really well but again, I know others aren’t fans. Supposedly very intelligent scientists acting like fucken retards at times doesn’t help I will admit.

The apple has fallen pretty far from the tree in my opinion. Not sure why but he lacks all that makes Denzil great although they do sound exactly the same.

I didn't like it much. Build up was ok, but ultimately a big let down for me

I disagree completely, and I think most of Hollywood and critics agree with me (the latter doesn't really matter but he gets good reviews from them, I guess the former does as it will keep getting him work).

Well Black Klansmen was a whole lot of nothing so that possibly didn’t help.

He should have done a Tarantino and bowed out on top ( Ive heard he’s not making any more movies )
