Re: What was the last movie you watched?
Watched Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings. All 4 of us liked it.It had good humour, it wasn't all kung foo, sound was good. I recommend it.

Re: What was the last movie you watched?
"Molly's Game" I borrowed the Blu-Ray from a friend. I enjoyed the movie a lot. Very different from typical fare.
It is based on a true story but I have no idea how much artistic license was taken.

Re: What was the last movie you watched?
Different I agree not hugely but a good show.

Re: What was the last movie you watched?
My daughter forced me to go see the last spider man.
I think it was the worst movie I've seen so far.
So bad, so bad, that I couldn't help but make this outburst.
(I want to emphasize that when I was a kid I used to read superhero comics with pleasure and I like a lot of movie adaptations)

Don't bother...a good buddy of mine absolutely hated it, and The Critical Drinker tore it to pieces.
The Matrix Resurrections Should Never Have Been Made - YouTube
From what I've seen, it looks like absolute sh*te....
Hollywood just won't learn that it needs to stop remaking good movies and start re-making the bad ones, as the late, great Roger Ebert once said they need to do.
If you want to watch a truly great movie, check out Seven Days in May by the late, great John Frakenheimer.

Totally agree!-plus take look at Frankenheimer's "Seconds" with the incredible cinema photography by James Wong Howe:)

I just finished The Green Mile. Again.
Why I continue to watch something that’s so distressingly sad, I’m not entirely sure. Man I miss Michael Clarke Duncan.

We went to see Top Gun Maverick. It was good. Not sure it lived up to the hype, but good none the less.

Due to current events, I re-watched Unplanned and think everyone with an opinion should watch this one.

Were you able to find this in 4K?

I believe CODA is available in UHD Blu-ray and 4K streaming from Apple TV+

I watched fourteen peaks. Documentary of how an all Sherpa team climbs all fourteen 8,000 meter Himalayan peaks (with supplemental oxygen) in one climbing season. Outstanding footage and very inspiring, especially if you’re a mountaineer like me.

We watched this last night. One of the best films I have watched in a while. Emilia Jones studied ASL for 9 months to do this film. At times her vocals sounded eerily like Norah Jones (Duet Scene) so I had to look that up. No relation but her father was a singer and performer. Emilia should pursue a career in singing and would blow away many of today's mainstream lip syncers. Unfortunately I could not get the sub titles to work properly on the copy I got so had yo use some wild imagination during most of the signing scenes. Accept for 1 or two songs, the music was all Motown inspired. If Emilia didn't steal the show, the whacky music teacher did.
If you like Music in your Movie, I highly recommend watching this one.

Re: What was the last movie you watched?
Watched Saving Private Ryan. That's what the crowd picked.This was a day for the theatre to shine and it did in spades. I was surprised at how many big actors were in this.
-
Re: What was the last movie you watched?
Watched The Northman the other day. It was just terrible. Don't waste your money.
It currently is the butt of all our jokes as to how bad it was.
-
Re: What was the last movie you watched?
The Lost City. Makes me wonder what they paid Brad Pitt to be in the movie.
-
Re: What was the last movie you watched?
Perhaps Sylvester Stallone's latest "Samaritan" on Amazon Prime Video can unseat The Northman! Samaritan was so bad it was laughable; wooden performances, mind numbingly stupid dialog. This went on for 1 hour 45 minutes. Based on the story line it should have last 1 minute and 45 seconds (including credits, assuming someone would want to take credit for this steaming mound or is that "streaming" mound?).

That's seriously bad. I'm steering clear. Thanks for the tip.

Re: What was the last movie you watched?
Here is a good one for the Rock Climbers and Adrenaline Junkies out there. Last night for a scary movie for Halloween that was not blood and gore,
we watched Fall about some rock climbers who look to scale a 2000+ foot abandoned TV Tower in the middle of nowhere. Well, you can kinda guess what happens once they get up there but there is a serious plot twist that has been used in recent movies that I won't spoil. My hands were sweaty most of the movie.

Re: What was the last movie you watched?
I recently watched Where The Crawldads Sing, one of the best movies I've seen in ages.

I recently watched Skyfall with Daniel Craig as 007. Wanted to see it in ultra high def.

Last movie I saw I would recommend is Coda in 4K.

The whole cast is also in Bullet Train (2022), featuring Brad Pitt - if you like crazy mindless action movies (not saying it in a bad way).

I like Fall (2022) too.
Samaritan (2022) is below my low expectation.

+1 on Fourteen Peaks. My one question after watching - Is Nirmal Purja possibly the greatest athlete of all time? He needs to be in the discussion.
Another very good one: "Aftershock: Everest and the Nepal Earthquake".

This was also a great movie and this girl sang so much like Norah Jones I thought they were related. She is fantastic for recently learning how to sing and sign.

Just got home from seeing "Sound of Freedom" and I think everyone should see this movie. Very tastefully done but a powerful message. This movie does not even scratch the surface of the horrific $150 Billion a year industry of Human Trafficking and Sex Slavery. Please don't let what you may be hearing from the Mass Media stop you from seeing this film. It is not a Political movie. It is not a Qanon Right Wing Conspiracy movie. And it sure as hell isn't a Religious Fictional Thriller as the MSM claims. Ever wonder where all the kids on the Milk Cartons went when we were kids? Yeah, it's real. Wonder why you are not hearing a word to protect the children out of the Media, Hollywood, Sports and the rest? Wait until it gets revealed just how many and who are all involved in this at one level or another.
Please see this movie and wait 2 minutes for the credits to run for a Special Message. Tell everyone to see this movie because God's Children are Not For Sale!

Re: What was the last movie you watched?
Brian, Thanks for posting.
We have been debating whether to see it. Not because of any Political issues, rather those who I know who have seen it have indicated it is hard to watch.
Still 50/50 for us.

Jim, it is not too hard to watch because they don't get graphic, its all left to your imagination. But....it is still enough to pull some strings. It focuses on 2 children out of millions that are trafficked. See it and pass the message on because it needs to end and awareness is the key.

Re: What was the last movie you watched?
Oppenheimer. One of the best movies I've seen in a long time. See it in 70 mm IMAX if you can.
-
Re: What was the last movie you watched?
I was also able to see Oppenheimer in the true 70mm IMAX film format as well. Wow...to put it simply, it was absolutely gorgeous on screen. Highly recommend trying to catch it, if you have a theater near you. Also, really enjoyed the film and story.

My wife and I went to see it. It’s one of those movies you can’t stop thinking about. Just legendary. Cannot imagine his moral conflict.

Re: What was the last movie you watched?
Out of the Past with Robert Mitchum and Kirk Douglas. Great noir film from 1947 directed by Jacques Tourneur and photographed with superb compositions in glorious black and white.
