Unfriended, 2014
A simple gimmick that I thought was executed quite well. This one really surprised me.

A real enjoyable throwback to the mid 90s high concept cyberpunk thriller with a bunch of practical gore effects thrown in for fun.
Not as bad as I was expecting but I still have tons of problems with it. The movie itself was so dark and muddy looking it was hard to see much of anything really. I’ll watch it again once it hits iTunes to see if I just saw it in a bad theater or not.

For me this was a big improvement from the first movie. There still wasn’t much of a plot. You can tell Fox gave the filmmakers a lot more money and more freedom to bring in other X-Men characters this time around.
I think the filmmakers did the best they could stretching out the original short film into a full length feature film. I thought it was a just ok movie.
I liked this movie more than when I originally watched it back in 2010. I enjoyed the interviews with the real low budget creators but I couldn’t buy the main character’s performance for a second.
What if David Fincher decided to make a comedy? This movie was pretty great. Jesse Plemons stole the entire movie. Check it out if you are a fan of darkly funny movies.
The world and characters were interesting. I felt that it was very light on plot. I’d rank it somewhere in the lower third of the Marvel movies so far.
A really fun and action packed time travel story. I’ll never understand why the DC live action movies can’t be this good.
aka Avengers: The Leftovers. Seriously, it’s pretty amazing the Russo Brothers can pull off such an enjoyable movie with so many moving parts and a sprawling cast. Every character had multiple moments to shine and do what they do best. I’ve been waiting 10 years to get to this moment and can’t believe we have to wait one more to see how it ends.
