Furiosa - 6 of 10......

Special effects were horrible....the ai of Joy Taylor and more looked way too damn phony.
I only give it a 6 cause I liked the Mad Max series,but this movie knocked it down a notch.

How did this go so under the radar? Great fun. 4/5 stars.

I just watched “Sicario” on Amazon Prime. Pretty good! Tense and ruthless. Amazing acting from Benicio Del Toro(as always) saved an otherwise thin script/plot. Still gets a B/B+.

Greatest Beer Run Ever. I watched this the other day and didn't think it was bad. Weird seeing one of the Farrelly brothers directing something with a serious tone though.

Wolf Man last night. You could read my thoughts about it, here:


TLDR: Not bad, but meh. A watch it once for what it is and shelf it movie. If you liked Lamb (2021 I believe), you'll enjoy this. I don't think it's a great theater movie... too often I was kind of pausing and coming back to it. A lot of nothing is happening often lol.

Sand Castle. Has Nicholas Hoult, Henry Cavill, Glenn Powell and Logan Marshall-Green. Watched this on Netflix the other night. Thought it was an okay movie but nothing you'd need to watch again.

It's on my watch list. I keep skipping it.

I loved it.....I give it a 5 stars.....2nd one I give it a 4 star.

The end of the 2nd one makes me think there will be a number 3.....

It was definitely a good movie, but I consider it alongside “Traffic” and “Blow” in the drug genre movies and I don’t think it’s as good as either of those.

I’ll absolutely watch Sicario 2, though.

I think Moana 1 was a B+ kind of movie that checked all the boxes. Moana 2 is bland and written by hacks. C- stuff.

Interesting. I’d probably rate Traffic as the best of the 3. Now you need to watch that one and tell me if you agree.

Blow lost some steam at the end with all the father/daughter stuff, but was still an amazing ride.
