Posted by: islander (a.k.a del_CHG_islander2) on Jan 04, 08:27 in response to second gary's post So who saw what this week? Brooklyn (A), The Big Short...

H8: Thats a hesitant A-, not done thinking about this one, like how Daisy gets treated.

Max: The dog stuff may have made the room dusty once or twice. But the rest had an uneasy tone, kinda anti-military and racist a bit!

Come Drink With Me: A seminal film in the genre, and I could appreciate the artistry and how much it clearly inspired many films and directors since. But It was hard to set aside my modern sensibilities to make it through the dated story and style.

Maze 2: The escape sequence early on was good, then it got silly and dumb. Nice to see so many good indie actors, but then they didnt get much to do.

Spongebob movie 2: neither a fan nor a hater of the tv series. but the regular animated part was painfully dull. The live action/cgi stuff was better. Bonus point for The Captain (Antonio Banderas) setting his boat to 'auto-pirate'

Making a murderer netflix: good crazy stuff. but i knew i wouldnt last all 10 episodes, so i went looking for spoilers. But True crime buffs and people who like to be outraged should def. check this out
