The Last Movie You Watched (no spoilers)

I do prefer a "happy ending"

That is what Deshaun said

A Working Man was okay, nothing new here to be seen.

The Amateur, it decent. Would have been better with a different lead, some people can't carry a movie.

The Alto Kings, very slow movie. I fell asleep watching it.

Given my imbibing, it’s almost inevitable, that I will fall asleep during the end of the movie that really doesn’t quite grip me. And of course I can just go back for an instant replay the next day. Sadly it does happen.

And like Amy Winehouse, I ain’t going to rehab, no no no…

Sinners.

Let me start by saying that I am not a big vampire movie person. With that said, this is more of an allegorical story (with vampires) about how sin enters our world, makes us feel good, and can ultimately envelop us if we aren't prudent and vigilant of how it draws us in and keeps us from turning to God for true comfort. It also serviced as a reminder that even the devil knows scripture, but he also knows your desires. I thought this movie clearly showcased all the various forms sin often takes; pride, lust, greed, wrath, sloth, gluttony, envy. I also felt it demonstrated how music can often assuage or palliate us of our guilt in our sin, leading to a feeling of acceptance or concession.

There were a few acting delivery lapses and a few spotty edits, but all in all, it was pretty darn good and one of the best vampire movies I have seen.

8/10.

Starship Troopers. Still love this movie and I think it's horribly underrated.

Agreed.. but idk about underrated.. maybe originally because it's been considered a cult classic for quite awhile now.

It is a good satirical movie, but it isn’t what the book was. Full Metal Jacket captured the tone of the book much better.

I would love for a true depiction of the book to be made sometime, but I am not sure enough time has passed to separate the expectations from the existing movie.
