Too bad- I was looking forward to it.
Jason Bateman is underrated IMO- Arrested Development is a classic, and Ozark is damn good.
His 'Rip' Reed mob lawyer role in Smokin' Aces' is pure gold! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6RItV0ZDgI

Guess I'll be waiting for the free version of Game Night.

Just daw Incredibles 2. Its a must see if you liked the first one. Its familiar but fun, great voice acting and animation and action.

Sicario: Day of Soldado

I liked this sequel to the first film, it's basically a new chapter. Emily Blunt's part as the good cop questioning the whole dirty war they were involved is gone.

Benicio del Toro and Josh Brolin’s roles as a result are more interactive and have larger speaking roles.

It's similar in that there are no rules when it comes to CIA incursions into Mexico to deal with the Cartels. The big screen is great for this film.

If you like action, martial arts films, then watch the Raid movies. Raid: Redemption and Raid: Bernadal; way better than the John Wick movies.

I'm looking forward to this. Will be re-watching the original soon to refresh.

Good idea.

I'm actually thinking of seeing this one a second time. Paying more attention to dialogue that I thought was insignificant turned out to not be the case.

Just saw Upgrade. Its a hidden gem. Its about a young couple that are ambushed and she is killed and he is paralyzed. He gets the chance to put a microchip in his spine that lets him walk and move again, and decides to use it to seek revenge. Think the movie Her (2013), but as an action movie. Its written and directed by Saw creator Leigh Whannell, but is equal parts sci-fi as it is gritty grindhouse revenge thriller.

I saw the trailer for this movie a while back and thought it looked interesting. Did you see it in the theatre? I have not seen any ads for it yet.

Unfortunately, it came and went pretty quick at the Cineplex theaters. I noticed it was playing at the Riverport the week jamasianman reviewed it and the next week it was gone. It may have played the following week at what used to be the Tinseltown but again, I was unable to make it out to see it there and it's no longer playing there. But tonight I had a chance to catch it at The Rio and have to say that I really enjoyed it. For me, I'd draw more of a comparison to something like if Robocop were more spry and had HAL 9000 implanted in him . There's another movie that I was reminded of by the end but mentioning that here could subtly spoil the movie for others if they are familiar with that movie. Some very cool camera work too! Again, I really enjoyed Upgrade.

I think Unsane is the movie of the year so far.

Yeah I watched it on Monday it had a few good parts but mostly just wanted the movie to end. Hopefully the next one will be better.

Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates. From 2016. I downloaded this because one of the guys on sports radio claimed it was so hilarious.

I thought it might be along the lines of The Hangover but it was just unfunny formulaic crap. Not sure how Anna Kendrick got involved. She's totally mscast, amd wears wigs throughout like she's trying to hide. Aubrey Plaza is pretty hot and is the best thing in this lame-ass, lazy production.

One laugh - when the bride-to-be gets hit in the face with an ATV.
----------------------
Mamma Mia 2 - Might be worth taking a date to. Songs are lame non-hits from Abba. A few recognizeable ones repeated from the first movie.
Nobody really hot to look at, either.
Cher appears near the end as a singing corpse, because no living human looks or moves like that.
Streep only at the very end as a singing ghost.(really).

The Equalizer 2 kicked so much ass. Its how action movies should be done. I wasn't the biggest fan of the first movie but the second one improves with more action, better pacing, and a really amazing performance from Denzel Washington. Action films are not usually known for acting but there's this one scene that makes the price of admission worth it . See it now or see it later.

saw Christopher Robin,

if you like the pooh bear, it is a must see,
a great movie, fantastic, very well done I thought

but if pooh does nothing for you don't bother,

you will think its kind of boring and hooky

Downloading Deadpool 2 at the moment. Should be interesting viewing

This is a link to the torrent I am using to download movie:

https://rarbg.to/torrent/yd6knhw

The link at the top of the webpage should allow you to download movie if you have bittorrent client installed.

Here is where you can download free uTorrent client:

Jurassic Park:Fallen Kingdom.

Feared it was flogging a franchise for every last dollar but enjoyed it a lot. You know what itt's about and it delivers.

I find the Claire character extremely attractive. She looks good, but she also kicks ass, she's tough. She is also not overly sexualised, like so many other females are.
