Nah brah, I laugh at almost all horror flicks. This caught me by surprise a few times or maybe because my lady kept jumping. The reviews I read/saw always said it has some really tense moments...but that it wasn't really horror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saw Nope. First time seeing one of Jordan Peele’s movies. It did have some tense moments but it wasn’t really horror. Heck, I laughed a couple of times. Spoiler All that effort to get a pic of the alien. It actually started out to slow for my tastes before the movie got going. I’ll give it a B. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purbeast Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 I haven't seen Nope, but none of his movie before that are what I'd consider horror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hathaway was straight cringe as Catwoman, as many expected when it was announced she got the role. And it was like they were caught trying to come closer to fact Batman is a comic book character in a universe Nolan built where it was up until the last movie about as a realistic and plausible as Batman could be.

GoDeep81 Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 "Unbearable weight of massive talent" (I think that's what it's called) Nick Cage.. Pretty easy watch, couple good laughs. 1 hour 45 minutes. Decent way to spend a Friday night. Give it a B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 DC League of Superpets. Actually, a good cartoon. You not only get the pets but the entire justice league. Gets a solid B+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickyJ Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Digging back into the older movies, I tracked down Frequency from 2000. I remember watching it years ago but never saw the ending. It's about a man who in 1999 talks over a ham radio to his father, who is using the same set in 1969, all because of an aurora borealis that occurs in both years. It stretches the imagination a bit even by time traveling radio signal standards, but it's a solid movie. 7/10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) Saw a sneak viewing of Brad Pitt's Bullett Train. Good thing the theater I went to, only charges $4 on Tuesdays. It was slow and confusing at first before things picked up. I guess it's based on some book or something? I recommend you don’t waste your time with this movie.

Chew Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 After hearing really good things about Prey, I just finished watching it. What a pleasant surprise!! When I first Hulu was making an exclusive Predator movie, I likely rolled my eyes. Well, I'm eating crow this morning. One of the best movies I've seen this year and probably the second best Predator movie after the original. It was ****ing awesome. Currently sitting at a 92% on rotten with over 120 reviews. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purbeast Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I wish these exclusives would eventually hit Bluray so that I could at least just rent em from Redbox. I hate how there are movies I can't watch because I'm not subscribing to Apple TV+ or Hulu. I would rather miss out on those flicks than buy into all these different services. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the new Predator movie is getting rave reviews, I don't want to cave and get another streaming service in Hulu just to watch it. I had Hulu before, I was unimpressed.

The Evil Genius Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 (edited) I was happy to see Amber Midthunder in another key role. She was good in the tv show Legion..which is a definite watch if people like crazy ass shows that vaguely cross over into Marvel. Definitely want to see Prey and Uncharted this weekend. Uncharted finally dropped on Netflix today. Edited August 5, 2022 by The Evil Genius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Have you ever wanted to see a Predator alien fight a bear? Well my friends, you’re in luck! Prey was good, and every bit a predator movie. The 93 rotten tomatoes score is probably exaggerated, because it isn’t THAT good. It is good though, as an action movie, and feels more like the OG that made this franchise than some of the bizarre nonsense we’ve seen since. It’s nothing like that garbage The Predator we got in 2018. Amber Midthunder was awesome. The predator creature seemed more like a novice than some we’ve seen before, or at least a masochist, but it brought what we want from it. Violence, weird clicking noises, plenty of roaring, and a movie monster that succeeds at being incredibly threatening. I enjoyed watching it. You might too. One criticism I have is that the Amber Midthunder lacked the cheesy lines an action movie hero needs. “I’m smarter than a beaver” isn’t going to do it. She needed a line like this one (language warning) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momma There Goes That Man Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Agree on Prey. Easily the second best predator movie. Had some good fight scenes, the predator was a badass even and I liked that it was more primitive than the original one we saw. It also had a decent amount of heart and the through line of her learning to hunt to survive rather than for glory as she lesrns how to beat it was pretty good. of course, a woman starring in a predator movie has the usual crowd pretty upset but it’s handled well and believable imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purbeast Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) Prey was just alright. Nothing special at all IMO and it's being overhyped just based on scores I've seen. I'd give it like a 7 out of 10. The CGI was awful in it too. The bear and lion looked like someone's high school project, especially the way they moved. Entertaining movie though and the perfect length because any longer and it would have felt like it was dragging. It did drag a little bit in the beginning but then finally got going. Definitely LOL'd when the little indian said "if it bleeds, we can kill it" and pretty much facepalmed at the same time.

I was happy with it for what it was (maybe the first filipino american comedy?). But I was also disappointed with how much wasn't Daly City despite it being portrayed as it. Wife is from there. Also, had to look Junior up afterwards...dude is legit part Filipino despite looking white but he's also 29. 29!

purbeast Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Had no clue they were even making a movie about this and then saw it came out this past Friday. I will be watching it this week probably or maybe next weekend. https://www.amazon.com/Thirteen-Lives-Viggo-Mortensen/dp/B09ZSKD17J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
