Merged: The Movies Thread

[WCommandersfan99]

I continued my older movie watching and recently viewed Brewster's Millions. I love Richard Pryor and especially John Candy, but this was a bit disappointing. I also love baseball but just couldn't get into it. Plot was absurd and almost had a poor man's Trading Places feel. A few laughs but overall not that great.

Saw Karate Kid: Legends. Similar plot to the other films. Decent story. 7.5/10

Thanks for the continual movie reviews 88! We're going to see the new MI: Final Reckoning tonight. Looking forward to it.

MI: Final Reckoning was awesome. The final action scene at the end may have been Cruise's best work yet. This movie was a bit more emotional while still having all the elements of a fantastic MI movie. Definitely worth a see although nearly 3 hours long.

Continuing my older movie watching, I recently watched The Karate Kid. Heard all about it and was definitely a good movie. Pretty uplifting and good acting for sure. I'm a sucker for feel good movies and sports movies and this has both.

Saw the John Wick spinoff, Ballerina. Pretty good. The flame thrower fight was great. John Wick even appears.

Gets 8.5/10.

Saw the weird movie, The Phoenician Scheme. Didn’t really know what was about. Gets a 6.5/10.

Took my daughter to see Lilo and Stitch per her request. A feel good, entertaining movie that kids will love. Stitch, in particular was super fun in this movie and impossible not to enjoy. The hype is real for the strong kids film.

Love movies about bands. Bohemian Rhapsody and The Dirt are both awesome.

Watched Long Shot recently. Hilarious. I'm a huge Seth Rogen fan, and he doesn't disappoint in this one at all. His chemistry with Charlize Theron is great, and the movie is really good. Check it out.

Saw the excellent live action version of How To Train Your Dragon. Faithful to original cartoon. Gets a 9/10.

Watched Thunderbolts today. Not the best Marvel movie I've seen but not bad. Some entertaining scenes and decent acting. I'd recommend this to Marvel fans only. Looking forward to Fanstastic 4 next month speaking of.

Watched Patton recently. This is a great movie depicting one of the toughest American military figures ever. It is directed by Francis Ford Coppola who is famous for The Godfather. Patton is an older movie that military fans will love. Check it out.

Saw latest Pixar cartoon, Elio. Nice little alien abduction story. One of the better Pixar movies. Gets a 8/10.
