John Wick 3 is what you should be asking this weekend.... for the first time or second. 5/10

    Oh shit. If there is a film that I would think is right up your alley, it's that one.

    This is a bad sign and doesn't bode well for me liking it.
    Yeah man.... not good. NOW... this may surprise you but Booksmart is cute,
    Fun and a lotta laughs. Really enjoyed it. Wish it was doing better in the theatres.

    Rose and I just got back from Brightburn. Loved the trailer, love the idea, but the movie was fucking weak. In addition to almost every beat in the movie being highlighted in the trailer, the whole thing was just lame. Although, the sequel idea hinted at near the end could be VERY interesting. So, we'll see.

    This movie flips the script on teen high school graduation angst by having the main characters be female, one of whom is gay. There are the usual coming of age tropes, but the writers did come up with a few original very funny ideas. Both actresses do a wonderful job in their roles. I expect to see them in many more movies.

    Agreed. I especially think Jonah Hill's sister has a bright future ahead. I've liked her in everything I've seen her in so far.

    Deadwood Movie
    This has been my favorite show for years. Sad to see this as the final finale, but it was nice to get this and to see where the characters were 10 years later. The show picked up where it always was, a well written story with vulgarity thrown in with a touch of violence. I heard the creator has Alzheimer's now. Anyway, it had what every fan liked about the show and it was a great send off. 9/10.

    Downloaded the Deadwood movie, then realized I haven't seen the show in almost a decade.

    So now I'm halfway through the first season. Fantastic

    Amazing show! The speech and tone is different in season two and three. Interesting. Did a re-watch also. First series I have EVER watched a second time. Now going to re-watch The Wire to decide which show is the BEST tv show of all time.

    Just seen Godzilla. Enjoyed it for what it was, a Godzilla movie. Big battles with big bad guys. They are always fun to me, even the old black & white ones. No they will never win oscars but they entertain. Looking forward to King Kong and Godzilla together in the next one.

    Deadwood movie was really good. One of my all time favorite shows. I have watched the series a few times and in a little bit I will watch it again. Just fantastic writing on that show.

    I recently saw The Prodigy. It had one of those trailers where you think they've given away the entire thing, but in this case, they really hadn't; there were some significant departures from what I thought I was getting. Interesting story, not too predictable; whenever I thought I knew where it was about to go, it went somewhere else.

    No, not yet. I still have to watch The Wire and Deadwood, among others. I've got HBO GO note so they're available to me for the first time.

    Not sure why John Wick 3 is getting all this high praise. I thought the first one was great and the second was good but not up to the same level, though certainly very cool in parts. But this third chapter is just diminishing returns. Nothing but protracted fights with little point and almost the same choreography every time (twist hand, kick face, shoot face, rise, repeat). This did not need to be over two hours. The videogame-like shootout in Casablanca was laughably bad. My friend and I saw this together, both huge fans of the original and he's a big action guy. We both felt it was tedious...

    Agreed! I really liked it as well. Just enough twists to make it fresh. But man, I was questioning the mom's parental choices in the last third!

    No way. All the fight scenes felt different. The knife scene alone was worth the price of admission. The motorcycle scene was great. The Casablanca scene with the dogs was great. The end with the guys with better gear was great. I don't need much plot or story when it comes to the John Wick films.

    I watched John Wick 2 twice and I kind of felt like Mae feels about 3. Some of the fight and shootout scenes felt repetitive, but I never felt that was the case while watching 3.

    I loved the first half of 3. Halle’s dogs and Keanu’s horse were straight up sick, but I did think it felt a little long overall. 2 is also my least fave. The knives at the beginning of 3 was a high point of the series for me

    John Wick 3 > John Wick 2 > John Wick

    LIGHT SPOILERS



    John Wick 3 was positively amazing. I love the first two movies, but John Wick 3 can basically go on the Mount Rushmore of Action Movies along with Fury Road, Die Hard, and T2. That fucking cinematography man. It's so beautiful. Mad Max is a bad ass action film that is pure art, but it isn't a pure arthouse action film like John Wick 3. There isn't too often when it comes to action films I get excited about the sets, but the entire environment in these films, especially 2 and 3, is just so organic and fluid and is as much a player in every action scene as the actors. When Wick went after the Samurai/Ninja guys near the end...the use of glass and reflections, and how constantly people were just vanishing and appearing in ways that were so seamless and impressive that it was done to the point where in any other movie I'd be like 'come on, this wore out it's welcome!' but in John Wick 3, it never lost it's lustre (and I loved the literal video game 'defeat various levels to reach area boss' aspect to that fight. However, if there was any part of the film that felt to drag it was those fights, but they were also incredibly entertaining and it made sense because considering it's been what, 3 weeks since the first film started? Wick must be exhausted...long fights make sense by then. And the way in the stables the horses got involved. The way the dogs went in and out of the frame.

    The comedic timing in the third movie too was just on point. Every joke landed at the exact right time. It was just brilliant in that regard.

    I absolutely loved the super armoured guards which were a perfect counter to John Wick's love for headshots. And then when they found a counter to those things, my god was that awesome.



    The action choreography is too good. That knife fight at the beginning was amazing. That first guy who walked through the door and took an instant headshot got off easy.



    This movie was well made it made Halle Barre a total badass and I haven't given a literal fuck about anything Halle Barre has done in like 15 years. Not only did she nail the action stuff and seem as much a legitimate badass as Wick, I enjoyed her character as a whole.

    A big ol' 10/10 from me. Actually, and 11. Wick finished off a fight with a deadly, double-arm belly-to-belly suplex and a mother fucking Angle Slam through a mother fucking glass floor.

    Dark Phoenix...
    What were the critics watching? We thought it was fun and had some great scenes. Yeah it’s not Endgame or even the equally as amazing Wick 3... but it was fun. Glad I got to see it un theatres. 7.5/10 for me
