Saw Molly’s Game today and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great dialogue and wonderfully acted. This is Aaron Sorkins directorial debut, and while it was perfect from that aspect it is a great first outing. The movie is long but it’s well paced so it doesn’t feel like it drags, it feels like it needed those 140 minutes to tell the entire story. The scene between Chastain and Costner at the end is definitely one of the best I’ve seen in 2017. I give it this movie 4 out of 5. Go see it if you have a chance.
Hillbilly Oceans 11. It was a fun ride and a great setup for a sequel.
The first half was really good. The last half was great.
A movie so bad it’s hilarious. I couldn’t stop laughing it was so bad.
So damn funny. Wish he did more than the 4 he’s contracted to do.
The movie is pretty good. I thought that this story would best be used as a morality play. Showing the virtuous and noble attorney who intentionally walks into darkness and pays the ultimate price for it. However, the beginning of the film only showed the terrible life the main character was living and how he had to change strategies to adapt or survive. I think this was a mistake. It would have been far more effective to show Roman him as a good man, almost too good who has failings and failings and is almost forced into accepting darkness. The story tried to do that but didn’t quite hit the mark. Instead it showed Roman as being a civil rights activist who is kind of a joke in today’s world. Misused effort in my view. However, the final act, I thought, was pretty well done. The way that Roman and George played off each other was interesting and engaging. I imagine there will be some who take issue with the a white man finishing a black mans work and in a way being a savior of the cause. A common trope that should be done away with. I didn’t really like it but I suppose for white audiences that will play rather well.
Nick Fury, Deadpool, and Electra. Yeah sign me up. This was way more fun than I thought it would be. So many laughs. I think it was so much fun because they played characters they play so often so it felt natural and unforced. They make a great team. I hope this is the first of many buddy comedies between these two.
My favorite movie of all time. Not sure why but I just love it. I've seen well over 30 times.
Pretty bad movie. The story made sense and the shaky cam was really getting on my nerves. The ending was unfulfilling to boot. Skip it.
I’ve read the book and seen the original movie. Of course the book is best. This movie was awful and a waste of great material that is extremely relevant in today’s world. I’m sad to see it ruined. I wish Michael B. Jordan had turned this down, he’s better than this derivative junk.
I’m very disappointed. This could have been so much more but fell flat.
That ending. I really liked the whole movie but that ending was really great. I wonder how the story ended after the credits rolled. I'd love to know that.
A silly movie with an odd premise. It made me think why the makers of this film felt this had to be made and why these actors agreed to do it. That being said, I enjoyed it!
