88Comrade2000 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Oppenheimer gets a solid B. Cillian was great. Should get an Oscar nod. Same for Robert Downey Jr. I didn’t like the way they told the story, thru flashbacks and jumping back and forth at points in time. Also, it felt it wasn’t just about Oppenheimer but Lewis Strauss. So, that’s why it didn’t earn an A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Mission Impossible: 7/10. Solid fun action movie and Tom Cruise is awesome as usual but the plot is kinda...out there even for an MI film. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Elemental. A lot better than I expected and not the movie that I thought it was going in. Definitely a Pixar film that I want to see again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody crown King Cillian, he was really good. Cillian was good, for sure but Robert Downey Jr was better. Emily Blunt was fantastic too. Movie felt long but definitely didn’t drag. Great movie all around 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Die Hard Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 (edited) Mission Impossible. 3 hours long but it didn’t feel like it. Typical MI flick. It was fun. Female lead was nice to look at. Some twists. A couple of over-the-top things… but I’m okay with suspending reality. But it takes it down a peg. 7 or 8 outta 10. But someone needs to explain to me what happened in the opening submarine scene. After walking out of the theatre, I realized what I thought happened couldn’t have happened. Spoiler How was that sub at the bottom of the sea fully intact….. but we saw all the dead bodies of the crew floating in the water?

Dead Reckoning wasn't quite as good as Fallout but I was still thoroughly entertained. Spoiler Thank God Ethan got the key at the end. Gabriel was so annoying throughout and I just knew his bum ass was going to get the key and we'd be left hanging until next summer. Tip of the cap to Tom and his writers for giving us that win and allowing us leave the theater satisfied. Does Tom Cruise have one of the deepest catalogues in Hollywood at this point? I scrolled his IMDB last night and it's ****ing ridiculous. Action, sci-fi, dramas, thrillers, biopics, he's done it all. The man is a legend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not really a spoiler to the plot…. any more than watching a few minutes of a preview. It’s just something that happened.

GoDeep81 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 (edited) "Love Again". Good movie! Priyanka is nice to look at and I like Jamie from Outlander. Celine looks good for her age too. Sounds like her pipes are still on point as well! Good story. 105 minutes. Nothing to complain about really. Solid B from me.

Fergasun Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 @Die Hard Mission Impossible Spoilers / Discussion Spoiler You are gonna make me pay attention to the ending, but I don't think the sub is fully intact and they probably are showing it on the bottom at an angle. I mean obviously it got hit by a torpedo. My question/plot hole is... wouldn't whoever have recovered the bodies recovered the two keys? They just magically were sold on the black market? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max21 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Transformers was pretty good, nothing will top the first one though. Kinda corny at times but the coke and popcorn was good. 6.7/10 Spoiler What’s up with the GI Joe reference at the end? I also wish these movies had a bit more human aspect to them like we saw in the first movie. Not giant planets eating other planets but what do I know.

purbeast Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Just watched the Freediving documentary on Netflix. I enjoyed it a lot and knew it was dangerous but not to the extent it was. Very interesting and I recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Does making a historical movie set in the 1940s with 50 star American flags in it warrant one? 😁 Spoiler As an aside, having not seen it yet, did the movie talk about how Oppenheimer and the US government forced Hispanic and Native people out of their houses in New Mexico and/or irradiated them with testing near their towns? I'm assuming that didn't make the 3 hr cut. Edited July 24, 2023 by The Evil Genius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) @The Evil Genius Spoiler I wouldn't expect this movie to touch on everything that made the Manhattan Project controversial in the name of "freedom", but it does go hard into Oppie's belief we didn't need to drop the bomb on Japan when we did, there's a scene with him and Truman arguing about it apparently, which really is the core of this story and what it's done to human history, so glad they at least went after that Edited July 24, 2023 by Renegade7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergasun Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Perhaps breaking the thread rules but here is a review of "Barbie" from a 16 and 17 year old male ("son of Fergasun" and his friend) who just finished watching it. "Better than Indy... 9/10" "It's a good movie, the people complaining about wokeness are missing the point. Indy is more my cup of tea, but it was not bad." Meanwhile .. his friends 14 year old sister.. "Barbie was meh..." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
