Leave the World behind
Yeah, more like leave this movie behind. I won’t say too much as I don’t want to leave any spoilers but it was shit. Julia Roberts took her angry pills, Ethan Hawke has fallen a long way since Training Day…….and the movie left nothing but unanswered questions. Pointless. Avoid this one.

Rebel Moon. Well at least the first hour or so. Really shit. How ZS managed to fůck this up is beyond me. Could have been great but was awful. Disagree with @NTA that this would be loved if made in the 80s. Firstly the 80s film-makers would have killed for this budget and effects. Second, an 80s version would have been camp as fůck. I don't know wtf this was.
Had to watch 300 to detox. Now that's a good film.

Malbatt: Misi Bakara - the story of the Malay battalion that helped the US's rescue mission in Mogadishu as part of the UN, more famously known for Black Hawk Down.
Apparently it took 20 years for them to be officially recognised for thier efforts there too!
Obviously subtitled, think it was on a more modest budget than BHD, but seems the director had recently watched the original Top Gun as a scene early on was reminiscent of the famous volley ball scene....anywhoo, decent enough movie, if not struggling a bit with thier lack of budget with some of the cgi work not that great.
Also, am guessing a bit of resentment it took so long to be recognised for thier role in assisting the rescue of US troops with some of the dialogue.

Leave The World Behind
Complete dogshit. The cool trailer is the cool stuff in the film. So much pointless crap, absolutely no action whatsoever and basically just a movie full of people talking about stuff when they have no clue what's going on. Massive cast creates a massive disappointment. Don't bother.
1 dull boat crash out of 5 completely pointless staring deer.

Even harsher than my review
I too was fooled by the trailer. How wrong we were

I enjoyed Leave The World Behind. Fun little drama with plenty of intrigue and mystery that leaves you guessing.
Admittedly, I never saw the trailer - so maybe it sold itself as an action film.
I’m with you - scripting was a bit average, and Rent Boy has turned a little sappy, but overall I liked it, something different , and a great ending

Neat little bow on the Friends angle, left a bit to the imagination which annoyed the missus, outlier possibility left open for a sequel (hope not) - what’s not to like?

Look I don’t know what sort of policies you’re into but there have been two very in depth reviews stating why this movie was shite. It’s pretty much official

Astonishingly colossal use of the word bit.
