Movie Roll Call: What have you seen lately?

[JStewart]

Good ending.
As usual @Michael Scott nailed it in his review.

From Michael’s review: “but it is one of those guiltily satisfying flicks that you watch and don’t tell your cinephile friends that you did.”

Oops

Definitely enjoyed that one, too! No guilt involved!

Always thought those Trans Ams were about the best looking muscle car produced. A good watch, just for that alone

Wasn’t there a trans am jacket, too?

We’ve been enjoying some B&W movies lately. The format was great for movies like this one we watched earlier in the week.

I tried to watch Project Hail Mary... only made it through about 90 min before I had to cut loose. Couldn't do it.

Also, watched Arctic this past weekend. We'd just slogged our way through a day where the heat index hit nearly 110-degrees. I read that the DC metro area was, on that day, hotter than 99% of land locations on earth. . So, we did some research and found a film that takes place entirely in the snow.

Arctic is a decent watch. Wouldn't say it was terrible or phenomenal. Certainly made for some fun in-movie comments.

If you've watched it, then you'll understand... I think the movie would have been even better if the chopper seen in the film's final moments hadn't returned.

Seriously? You missed a great ending!
Just kidding.
Anything in particular that turned you off to it?

It was the human - alien decrypting language in about 5 minutes routine.

I was already kind of iffy on the film but was settling in, right when that sequence happened. It just got way too hokey for me. Took my head out of it.

Have you watched?
