Deadpool and Wolverine

Fun but it was the same thing over and over and over and over again.

 

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

I had a REALLY good time watching this. It’s gotta be Burton’s best in a couple of decades, but boy did they try to slam a lot of plot lines into this one. The film maintained a very brisk pace throughout.

Near the back row were 8 kids, all under 10 going off. In the row in front five kids under 10 non stop talking and wandering around.

I guess parents these days have no problem with taking their under 10 kids to an R rated movie.

There are a lot of parents these days that set no boundaries for their kids when it comes to content they are exposed to. It's going to be interesting to see that works out on a macro scale in the next 15 years.

I think we're already seeing it. Fallout on Amazon Prime is short on story, long on shock value.

Couple of Dystopian flicks...

 

Uglies - 3/10

Pretty bad

What Happened to Monday - 7/10

Solid watch. Would have benefited from more budget I think

Max:  Civil War  Definitely not a war movie, or action packed.  It was hard to tell what side was what, and who was the good guys and bad guys.  More of a war correspondence movie where one is the vet and the other is a rookie.   And the development of each.  I don't think this movie is going to be for everyone.  But I liked it because it was different.

Thinking back on this one, it has a bit of the Charles Bronson "Mechanic" vibe.

I liked that it didn't pick a side.
