Don't read the synopsis, don't watch the trailer, don't look at the poster! lol
Marriage Story is a fantastic film. (Possible minor spoilers...it's pretty vague and general for the most part)
Great performances all around. The depiction of lawyers and the legal process when it comes to divorces was so well done. It didn't feel Hollywoodized, but very down-to-earth and realistic, and the horrible aspects of the legal system are shown neither as good or bad, but just the way things are. Adam Driver is fantastic. Scarlet Johansson is really good too, but her character isn't all that likeable. I'm not one to care if a character is likeable in terms of quality, but Driver's character seemed to have a lot more depth. Johansson's character toes the line between being an authentic person and an archetypal bitter woman divorcing her husband and it does work in the end of the film. Mainly it was difficult for a chunk of the film to empathize with her side because her reasons for divorce seemed so petty and immature.
There are some solid supporting roles in the film too from Ray Liotta, Laura Dern, Alan Alda, Wallace Shawn, Merritt Wever, and Julie Hagarty. While the film is pretty serious for the most part, there are some good laughs during the film. There is one scene in particular I thought was absolutely hysterical and it's placement in the film was perfect to help lighten things up. The structure of the story and the strength of the screenplay is the main draw here aside from the performances. The structure is so neatly interwined with the flow of the narrative it sneaks up on you. Scenes that are microcosms of the larger film, of things coming back to earlier scenes, clever parallels between both the leads own separate trials and tribulations, the escalation of tension and the emotional turmoil. It's all so perfectly doled out and paced. Bravo, Noah Baumbach.
5/5
Marriage Story was really good but really sad. Adam Driver was the best I have seen him.
Watched Ad Astra last night. Was just ok. Brad was great but Tommy Lee Jones was minimal at best.
I'll be watching it over the weekend, especially since Netflix keeps bombarding me with ads for it :lol:

Agreed. I felt the storyline for Ad Astra was a complete let down and a waste of time.Quote:

Tell me again why deregulating industrial/chemical companies is a good thing besides money-making.....Wait until the day they do a film about Thalidomide babies.
Learned from the movie that 99% of humans have some trace of C8 (the compound that helped create Teflon which does not break down and causes multiple, extreme health problems) because there are some compounds the EPA simply does not regulate and those compounds can be utilized and dumped by these chemical companies at their leisure. C8 was one of these compounds.
There is a real life victim of this disgrace in the film named Bucky. Bucky has one nostril and an eye deformity because his mother worked for DuPont during the Teflon days.
At the beginning of the Happy Pan days, DuPont gave cigarettes laced with Teflon to some male workers just to see what would happen. They all wound up in the hospital. Women that worked there had deformed children or had cancer like the men.
But nobody cared because they were making billions.
This film is infuriating and probably the most important film of the year.
Great review. DuPont continues to operate with virtual impunity, as profits are so lucrative that paying a few fines or lawsuits is just the cost of doing business.
Thalidomide is more of a German fuck up back in the 60's, and in fact is a legitimate medicine when strictly dispensed so as to avoid any chance a female comes in contact with it, as any contact during early pregnancy almost guarantees a deformed child.
Yikes.Quote:

Dune is directed by Denis Villeneuve. That's good enough for me.Quote:

It was a fitting conclusion to the nine films. I am intentionally staying away from actual content till others have seen it. I give it a 7.5/10, while the wife and kids gave it an 8/10.
Bombshell:
A fascinating "Fair and Balanced" look inside fox news in the time leading up to Fox President Roger Ailes being sued for sexual harassment. It's amazing the internal pressures on women to keep their mouth shut-particularly from other women. Of course it's history, but the Murdoch's sacrifice Ailes to keep their money printing news division going. Charlize Theron, Nicole Kidman, and Margot Robbie turn in great performances.
5/6 beers on the RFSRS.
Uncut Gems. OMG..... Sandler.... the story... the ending. 2019 is the hands down best year of film. I still have Lighthouse and Jojo to watch today. But dammmmmm Uncut is amazing, intense and you feel every scene.
8.5/10

Uncut Gems doesn't break here until Christmas. I'm really looking forward to seeing it, but probably not until Thursday.
Oh man. Go see it man. It’s so good. Hard to believe that’s Adam S!!!Quote:

Rambo: Last Blood
Okay, I'm a bit biased I enjoy these films and this one does not disappoint!!! Could have been titled Jason (Friday 13th) vs the Mexican Cartel. You see every plot point coming and can't wait!!!! And when we finally get to the inevitable reckoning Rambo single handedly destroys everyone the cartel brought with them in just about every way imaginable to murder a human being!!! As the cartel speeds across territory on its way to the killing grounds I found myself thinking "That's all the guys you brought? It ain't enough, Papi" LOL LOL Where the previous "Rambo" may very well have achieved the record for on film decapitations, this film seeks to attain the record for the most horrible ways to die. Oh, and don't worry they threw in a few decapitations for you. lol The moral of this movie is that "Human Trafficing ain't as easy as it looks" lol Especially if you manage to piss off, Rambo!!!
I gave this film 6 out of 6 Machete's!!!
I am pumped for this. Watching it tonight.Quote:
