Watched this right after the Better Call Saul finale and at least the style is consistent. It's just.. there, existing as a strange continuation to the story with elements of the original show. At least I didn't have to endure any Black & White parts. The movie was fine as an extended story but I don't think it stands on its own as a theatrical outing.

Nothing like seeing Brain Cranston will barrels of cash. Is this Walter White's other life in some alternate universe? Based off true events!, it's actually quite unbelievable. Such a cute and heartwarming story where it's not actually about greed but giving back to the community.

Was this basically a "what if Saul Goodman was Keanu Reeves in John Wick", button my opinion Bob Odenkirk doesn't have the punch needed to pull this off. I love him in Better Call Saul, but his Action Man persona wasn't where he shines. It was a treat to see Christopher Loyd in a very different role to his crazy scientist, a crazy ex cop.

An odd movie with more wavy bits than an old water bed. And talk about a strange Bradley cooper cameo. The whole thing was weird and I couldn't get into it. To me the story was a. It all over the place and then ended up being pretty standard in the end. Stick the hose in it and put it out if it's misery.

I love these peeks into the top 1% and how they go there. If there's one thing all the CEO/founders of all these companies have in common is that they are all assholes. I guess you have to be able to turn off empathy to exploit your workers. Spoiler, he gets a $1.7 BILLION payout on the end. Did he do anything wrong? Legally, looks like not. Morally, 100%

There's several underlying themes in this movie. From being an outcast, to someone feeling alien in their own body, the want to be accepted for being our true selves. But it all felt very literal and there were a lot of old and used tropes that dragged it down from what could have been an amazing film.

I loved this soundtrack! Every part of it with the classic Americana and the Gaga infused power ballots. Not too shabby for the 4th version of "A Star Is Born". Watching Gaga's meteoric rise (she really didn't have to act much in this being the superstar she is) and the simultaneous downfall of Bradley Cooper was really well orchestrated. Well done to Bradley Cooper considering this was his directorial debut.

This was so very very long. I thought I would enjoy the money/power aspect of this biopic but I was lost in the accents and the dullness of it. I also fell asleep towards the end, or maybe it was the middle I will never know just like how I will probably never affords to wear Gucci.

This was a long one. Started off with a blast and then seemed to drag and drag for light years. But seems that's the other side of the astronaut's life they were highlighting. There was a baby crying as much as Ryan in my flight while watching this so not sure if this affected my experience. Never watch a flight movie on a flight, I think scenes were cut.

Marilyn Monroe is intrinsically linked to classic Hollywood, in all it's representations. This doc tells the 'facts' from a cold, distant point of view, but it completely leaves out her mental state and the whole film doesn't take one beat to talk about her well-being. I did think it showed a side to the story that is rarely told, I just think it could have been more even handed.

This came out at the movies when I was 14 and let me tell you, it was the hottest thing to ever be shown at the movies in our lifetime! You could either sneak in or wait for the VHS. What a time. Watching it 23 years later I feel it really holds up. The precursor to Gossip Girl and the like, this really set a tone and I'm all for it.

This was really well done with incredible actors both young and old. I shrieked so loud at one point that everyone in the theatre looked at me! It got me good. Ethan Hawke's portrayal made me so uncomfortable that I was squirming in my seat. Best thriller I've seen this year.

This was amazing! Sure, it was very very silly at times but it really tickled my funny bone. The story played out as you would expect with a god killing MacGuffin, but it was still fun to see the Greek gods in their selfish ways. The trio of Thor, Valkyrie and the Mighty Thor worked really well together and I would watch them all day.

For Netflix's most expensive movie to date this really doesn't pack the punch it should have. It's got all the tick boxes of a Bond meets Bourne film but in the end it's just not there. Felt like I was watching Ryan Gosling in Driver or Blade Runner. Ana de Armas was very underused and so many of these characters just felt so stereotypical.

This was a strange cross between Rollerball, Real Steal and every other YA movie adaptation released. I saw this on a "Films You Missed" list, but it was on that list for a reason. All played out very predictably and I failed to be entertained. Not the target audience obviously.

And just like that, we are finally given the wedding that never happened in the series, and almost didn't happen in the movie! This was a perfect reunion to mark 10 years after the series first started. It felt very true to the series and great to catch up with the girlfriends with a very memorable trip to Mexico.

Groundhog Day meets Happy Death Day with a bit of Scott Pilgrim, the kind of movie that use to be on late night TV and you would watch it after a few drinks because it was still a bit of mindless fun. Not much new to this but based the time, I was hoping for more 'in game' references but that's fine.

Touchy subject for some, life and death subject for others. This was a touching and well done movie that feels authentic and non controversial in Europe, but would be very controversial in English speaking nations. Regardless, it's was nice story and well acted by the young cast. Reminded me of a time before phones where you would play in the field with friends.

Why is Bruce Willis still working? Especially on these dodgy sci fi flicks. Sure, I'm still watching them so maybe that answers that but I mean the guy is worth 250 million dollars! How much did Demi Moore get in the divorce?! I can't remember anything from this movie and I only just finished watching it. It was a sin just watching this.

So much blood and gore, but I guess that's true to the franchise. I was actually rooting for Leatherface to kill all these yuppies who thought it would be a great idea to gentrify an old abandoned Texas strip. The scene in the bus, laughable. In the league of slow moviegoing killers, he's no Michael Myers.

When I first watched this 10 years ago I was in awe at the effects and overall vibe of this 'Found Footage" movie. A decade later and it still holds up. The pixilation you can now see on newer TVs was really distracting. I kept thinking Disney+ needed to buffer, but acting, story, effects, all hold up for a fun experience.

Any advantage in life can be used for financial gain, obviously it helps if you can jump into any place you think of. The thing that always bugs me about these movies is how reckless they get with tier abilities. The camera work is always pretty reckless with its zooms and Michal Bay style swirls. Good to see Samuel L. Jackson working for SHEILD again.

Great movie, so much is done with so little. But what was the gravitational force pulling George Clooney away? They weren't in orbit, there should have not been any kinetic energy. Anyway, apart from that, stellar movie. It's visually stunning and gripping all the way with a minimal cast.

Still amazing after 25 years! By far Luc Besson best feature in my opinion. The story holds up, the acting and even the effects look pretty good by todays standards. Amazingly, the jokes are still funny and nothing about this has aged poorly. A classic action, funny one liners and great fun all round!

This was a wild ride of emotions, I was laughing then next thing I knew I was on the verge of tears. It was great to see a different culture represented in Pixar's magic. That boy band craze from the 90s was spot on! And I loved all the sudden jumps into anime style.
