Figured I'd start a thread for good movies folks have seen lately

Just caught Magnificent Seven. I'm not a big western guy but it was a solid action movie. I enjoyed it.

Last movies i seen at big screen were suicide squad in august and tarzan in july.

Tarzan was good, SS was alright but feel mainly i built it up too much that it couldnt live up to hype.

The Accountant looks pretty good so probably go watch that. Not really a movie goer unless something catches my attention.

Last movies that I saw in the theatre are a year old now, Revenant and Star Wars. Watched them again on cable and the both lose a little something without the super big screen, especially Revenant.

Last one I saw was Star Trek: Into Darkness, which was dope.

Next up will probably be Rogue One, and Arrival

I mostly catch movies later on Netflix, but I somehow always end up seeing sci-fi's in theater.

Last film I saw in cinema was Suicide Squad and I went in with a clear mind, ignore all the reviews and what not and I came out thinking it was brilliant. Obviously far from a perfect film, it has plenty of faults but overall I thought it was fun, had heart and I managed to follow the story so I enjoyed it... I understand why others may not have though.

I am not a comic geek or anything like that but watched cartoons as kid and read bios and played games. Plus did research of Suicide Squad. Just think you gotta not even know anything about topic to really enjoy it.

Once you invested in topic little or big things start to bother you.

Yeah, I kind of agree with that. I went in not knowing much about it all before hand, just who see twin characters were, but my friend who I watched it with is big into comics and had a much better idea of it all going into it then I did and I'd see he possibly enjoyed the film even more than me. Although he could be the exception to the rule when it comes to people who have prior knowledge on it enjoying it less.

Finally got around to watching The Usual Suspects yesterday. It's been on Netflix for a while and has been in my queue forever. I definitely recommend it. I loved it.

I just netflixed that movie "The 33" about the Chilean Miners starring Antonio Banderas. It was okay, but any attempt at dramatic tension was sorta undercut by knowing that they all made it out okay in real life.

It did make me laugh that seriously less than 5 minutes into the movie they had an Evil Corporate guy in charge of the mine shutting down the safety inspector like "I don't pay you to be safe! I pay you to make me money!!" a bit on the nose.

Watched Moonlight and Manchester by the Sea recently, both were good, I did enjoy Manchester more though.

I lost some interest in the third chapter of moonlight and I even went back to watch it again to see if it was just because I was tired but I still felt the same afterwards.

Casey Affleck was great in Manchester, he played this emotionally distant character almost perfectly. Michelle Williams was good too although she had very little screen time, but had a fantastic scene towards the end of the film.

I saw Split yesterday. It was pretty solid. A lot of the good parts were in the commercials though.

I like how they tied it to Unbreakable.

Yeah, that was awesome at the end. Did not expect that at all. I really hope they make another with both characters. McAvoy was great in his role. Hedwig made the movie for me.

A buddy of mine told me he found some new movies on a popular porn site he was browsing lol. I checked it out and just watched La La Land to see what the hype was. Pretty damn good movie.

Did you finish?


I just watched "Hands of Stone" last night. A Biopic of Roberto Duran. Pretty good movie. Made me want to edit all my guys in the fighting 15th into the best boxers (bro) I changed WW champion Butch Smith's nickname to Hands of Stone, and he promptly got KOed by a PG user. Fuck Roberto Duran.

I went to see Split just because I heard so much about the twist. Was happy with it but it was a more of a easter egg to me since it didnt really make you rethink everything that went on during the movie like sixth sense did. Would definitely see a sequel though, I'm a sucker for those movies with an element of mystery to them like Cloverfield and Super 8.

Rewatched John Wick today, I know the sequel is getting good reviews but I'm very skeptical it can live up to the original. Based off the trailers it looks a little over the top.

I enjoyed Split more because i didn't know who directed it so i didn't have any preconceived notions of what would happen and yea i agree that was more easter egg like.

I watched Bleed for This and Fist Fight last night. Bleed for This was really good movie. I'm a sucker for a good sports movie and I thought this one was awesome. Miles Teller played a great role. I had no idea what Fist Fight was about before I watched it. The plot was so stupid. There were definitely some parts I laughed at, but the movie as a whole was dumb.

Anyone see Get Out yet? I've heard great things. Can't wait until it comes on the site I use online.

John Wick 2 was great. The Cure for Wellness was decent. Lego Batman was pretty funny.

We tried REALLY hard to get Russell Crowe with a pump-handle shotgun included in our rash guard but we just couldn't get it to look quite right. lol

EDIT: Actually looking back at it, I'm not sure I don't actually love it.

bumping this, anyone seen anything good recently?
Posted by: Matty

Re: Seen Any Good Movies? - 05/14/21 11:05 AM

also do you guys have random films you always go-to and watch even after watching them 100s of times - i always seem to fall back on no country for old men, the social network and the town. Love them all and know exactly what happens scene for scene, but still always end up watching something like that after my intention to watch something new goes to shit

Re: Seen Any Good Movies? - 12/27/21 09:10 AM
