I thoroughly enjoyed this well acted movie. Lots of great twists and turns. I wish I could have seen it in 70mm to see what all the fuss was about.

Saw it again but this time on one of AMC’s fake “IMAX 3D” screens. I picked up on a few things I missed on my first screening. It’s still a really fun movie.

A truly harrowing film watching experience. DiCaprio will get all the awards and accolades for sure, but for me Tom Hardy really stole the movie in every scene he was in. A must see in the theater.

For me it struck the perfect balance of fan service with the classic characters while at the same time adding new and interesting characters I want to know more about. I can’t wait to watch it over and over again.

This one was a real mixed bag for me. I loved the slow burn and atmosphere, but I felt the end was a little too rushed. Kevin Durand was very good.

I never heard of this one before watching it. I really enjoyed the interweaving stores. Overall it was pretty good.

This movie took the insufferable trope of precocious kids to another level. Bravo Mr. Shyamalan.

If you can make it through the endless singing of the same 2 songs there is some good gore and comedy to see here.

With 10 stories and a run time of only 90 minutes, there isn’t much down time in this fun movie. This one will surely make it into my yearly Halloween movie rotation.

A really funny movie with a great cast. You don’t see too many horror movies with killer kids in them these days.

Totally rad throwback to the apocalyptic wasteland movies of the 1980s. Tons of fun and a really great score.

Marvel does it again, this time with a really funny heist movie disguised as a superhero movie. The tilt-shift look of Ant-Man’s shrunken state was a very cool design idea. What I want now is a 1980s set S.H.E.I.L.D. movie with more of Hank Pym’s early adventures please.

It’s been a few years since I watched this and Billy Mitchell is still a total tool. Seriously, this is one of the best underdog stories I’ve ever seen. I think everyone can relate to Steve Wiebe on some level even if they don’t enjoy playing video games.

It sure took a while for it to get going but I really was into it by the end. Just the right amount of nods to the original without going overboard. I could have done without the paramilitary subplot.

Another solid movie from David Gordon Green. He just keeps cranking them out. Al Pacino finally toned it down enough to give a pretty good performance, but I thought Holly Hunter was much better overall.
