Movie Roll Call: What have you seen lately?

[Dom Haerpfer]

Went to see “The Fall Guy” in IMAX, very fun popcorn movie, some good laughs, awesome stunt work (not surprising considering the director and stunt team involved), superb cast, both leads had amazing chemistry BUT the script is the weak link. “The nice guys” or “Kiss kiss bang bang” this is not. Still a good times at the theater and will buy the 4K Blu-ray for sure which I am certain will be demo-worthy.

I watched Wanted last night on BluRay. Its been a few years since I watched it last. I'm a little disappointed in the soundtrack as nothing stands out as amazing for gob stopping. I do enjoy the story line very much.

Wanted (2008) ⭐ 6.7 | Action, Crime, Thriller

Vampire Hunter (V.H.) hunts vampires, meets hot vampiress , V.H. & vampiress hunt/kill/kick butt of vampire mutations, V.H falls for vampiress, looses vampiress to mutations.

The Fall Guy downloaded to my Kaleidescape last night, it's on tap for our viewing pleasure this evening.

I finally got around to watching Gravity on BD the other day. It was my first time hearing the Atmos track in all it's glory. I streamed it on Apple TV a month or so ago, but the BD blew the stream out of the water. It was very impressive!

 

[Aburguy]

Watched this last night on Apple TV. Fairly entertaining for sure.

My g/f an I watched this at the trailer last night. I've never watched it before and I must say, it really pulled on the heart strings

I watched this flick on Netflix on recommendation of my son-inlaw. Good effects, good soundtracks, excellent story, and good acting.

Maybe it's me, but I don't think Jennifer Lopez was the right one for this part... she just doesn't fit it (for me).

Charlize Theron might have worked better.

I'm not a fan of JLo but I have to give her credit as she did it a good job in this role.

I enjoyed this one, too. It was definitely not as bad as some critics made it out to be.

Thanks, same here about JLo, good to know it's worth a watch

Watching Sisu...I do not know how I missed this movie when it was in the theaters.

 

[JBrax]

Watched Dune 2 on kscape yesterday. Bass Hunters coming out tomorrow!

Here's my take: It's an awesome movie. It's an AV spectacle. But—and I'm probably in the minority here—I don't think I'll be re-watching these films any time soon.

It's weird to say that about a film(s) series of this caliber, but I think the pacing and length of both films are too thick for me to watch from the beginning until I've completely forgotten about the story lines.

Perfect example of the saying…” different strokes for different folks.”

Watched Sisu and I must say it was a bloody good time.

Watched Sisu and I must say it was a bloody good time.

It's a blood and guts fest, eh?

Did it remind you of a poor man's Inglorious Basterds?

We like to experiment a bit and watch some lesser-known films. Last night we watched Downtown Owl. Despite being written by Chuck Klosterman, it was terrible. That was a big miss.

I watched Godzilla: Minus One on Netflix the other night. I have to say this is probably my favorite Godzilla film of all! Very well made and amazing that the budget to create was only $15 million!

A mixture of that and John Wick with maybe a sprinkle of Kill Bill. Fantastic movie that doesn’t take itself seriously.

Watching La Femme Nikita...loving it even in stereo it is so dynamic and spacious sounding.

I watched this last night. This is easily a reference quality bluray for showing off one's system.
