Merged: The Movies Thread

Anybody seen Doctor Sleep? I've seen mostly good reviews, just don't know anyone who has seen it yet.

I read the book it was ok, the book. Not sure of the movie.

Troop Zero - amazon movie, I really liked it. Feel good movie with a quirky feel to it. Good movie to watch w your lady. Had a rushmore vibe to it but the main character is like 10 and country poor. 8/10

viola Davis, Jim gaffigan, mike epps and some more familiar names

Green Book - it was good (im a big Farrellys fan) but no where near what I would consider a best picture winner. It was very predictable in story arc, the acting was equally great but at the same time everyone "over acted" in it. The main characters stuck to traditional cliches of themselves. The reveals werent revealing, they were predictable

It was well done I guess, but seemed a paint by numbers type .. 8.5/10

edit -

Weinstein guilty of 1st degree sexual act (min 5 yrs) and 3rd degree rape. To many accusers for the pattern and practice to not be true imo.

Im amazed at how many movies I watch are weinstein's ..

Yeah me too. It's hard for me to reconcile some of my favorite all-time movies were produced by the Weinsteins. It's like rooting for some POS wearing a Redskin uniform, I try to separate the talent from the person.

Yeah when I see that Weinstein pop up I do feel guilty for a second but i tell myself he was just financing movies and hes not making any new ones.

I thought 1917 was amazing

Just saw Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, a little long but overall it was pretty good

1917 is on my to-do list. Brother said it was amazing too.

I saw Once Upon a Time in Hollywood about a month ago too, another quality Tarantino flick. Brad Pitt and Leo do a great job of making you forget who they actually are.

Saw Knives Out; good movie.

JoJo Rabbit - 8.5/10 .. really interesting and unique. Comedy/writing was subtle and great. Highly recommend. Its quirky so be ready for quirky

Adam Sandler should have been nominated and won for best Actor for Uncut Gems

Uncut Gems was much better than Parasite.

the awards are either anti-Semitic or just trash...its one or the other at this point. Id lean towards trash

Saw 1917 last week. Great movie, def. worth the admission price. Uncut Gems def. still on my to-do list.
