Bones And All

Love blossoms between a young woman on the margins of society and a disenfranchised drifter as they embark on a 3,000-mile odyssey through the backroads of America. However, despite their best efforts, all roads lead back to their terrifying pasts and a final stand that will determine whether their love can survive their differences.

This movie was basically a decent premise with good actors cast in it but then decided to be waaaaaaaay too artistic for its own good.  There was so much dead time throughout this movie of just a score playing and nothing really happening and then something crazy would happen and it would go back to treading water.  It kind of made it miss its mark overall.

I wouldn't really recommend anyone bothering with this movie.  It's not the worst watch but the movie kind of like ruins itself because of how it was too overdone.

Violent Night

An elite team of mercenaries breaks into a family compound on Christmas Eve, taking everyone hostage inside. However, they aren't prepared for a surprise combatant: Santa Claus is on the grounds, and he's about to show why this Nick is no saint.

This movie is 10000000% exactly what you thought it would be.  It's a longer version of the trailer and doesn't disappoint for what it was.  It's over the top in every way.  It's quite corny at times.  But it works completely because the filmmakers and cast don't take themselves too seriously.  

I would actually recommend people checking this movie out.  It's a very fun, turn your brain off kind of movie that is basically Santa Claus inserted into Die Hard.

The Menu

The film, penned by Will Tracy and Seth Reiss, "focuses on a young couple who visits an exclusive destination restaurant on a remote island where the acclaimed chef has prepared a lavish tasting menu, along with some shocking surprise."Deadline notes, "Fiennes plays the world-class chef who sets it all up and adds some unexpected ingredients to the menu planned. The action follows one particular A-list couple that takes part. I've heard Stone will play half of that couple."

This was a weird ass and demented movie.   Not bad.  Just very twisted.  The actors really committed to their roles and it made for a really good watch.  They were all great and there were plenty of intensity and anxiety spikes throughout to keep you hooked.

I would definitely recommend people checking this out.  It was a very enjoyable and twisted watch.

She Said

The New York Times journalists Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor publish a report that exposes sexual abuse allegations against powerful Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein. The shocking story also serves as a launching pad for the #MeToo movement, shattering decades of silence around the subject of sexual assault and harassment.

This was a good movie for what it was.  This was a great telling of the start of the MeToo movement with actual moments and soundbites from along the way.   Both of the reporters were great and it was paced in a way that doesn't bore you.

I would somewhat recommend people checking this out.  It's not a must see by any means and it doesn't expose any unknown information.  Just a good job of showing how it all happened.  

Black Adam

In ancient Kahndaq, Teth Adam was bestowed the almighty powers of the gods. After using these powers for vengeance, he was imprisoned, becoming Black Adam. Nearly 5,000 years have passed, and Black Adam has gone from man to myth to legend. Now free, his unique form of justice, born out of rage, is challenged by modern-day heroes who form the Justice Society: Hawkman, Dr. Fate, Atom Smasher and Cyclone.

I find it impossible to not watch DC movies skeptically now.  LOL!  This was a really good movie for like the first 3/4 of it.  The background origins of Black Adam were good.  The Rock was great in the part.  The new characters that were introduced were all good.  And then right when I actually said this is much better than I expected they went and ended it the same exact absurd way that all DC movies end.  Fire everywhere.  An oversized satan related villain and lots of massive slow motion jumping and action.  Like why in the blue hell is that a thing.  Still though - this movie did much better than any previous DC movies in terms of connecting things to it throughout the universe but like do they really know what they want to do with the DC Universe?   Like I think that is the massive problem.

I would still recommend people checking this out.  It is a better than average watch and I mean . . . . . . its The Rock.  Why would anyone not watch him?

Prey For The Devil

The Roman Catholic Church combats a global rise in demonic possessions by reopening schools to train priests to perform exorcisms. Although nuns are forbidden to perform this ritual, a professor recognizes Sister Ann's gifts and agrees to train her. Thrust onto the spiritual frontline, she soon finds herself in a battle for the soul of a young girl who's possessed by the same demon that tormented her own mother years earlier.

This was pretty much your run of the mill, wash - rinse - repeat, exorcism movie.   I feel like I have seen some version of this movie a million times.   It had some really good sight scares but the bottom line is that you kind of forget about the movie five minutes after watching it.

I wouldn't really recommend anyone needing to see this.  The movie isn't a bad movie.  It's just really a dime a dozen exorcism movie and brings nothing new to the table.
