Good Time. Man, Robert Patterson is a good actor. I think he will kill it as the Batman. This was a solid 8/10 flick.

I enjoyed The Invisible Man quite a bit. I give it a 4/5, but I was just starting to get sick while seeing it that morning so it's possible that mitigated the film somewhat. I missed about five minutes or more around the job interview with a trip to the bathroom, and a bit later on as well.

I recently saw Godzilla: King of The Monsters.
I always watch this type of movie because I like seeing huge things blow up, and I often (but not always) like monster movies, so I do get something out of them...yet I don't really like them too much, as the stories usually strike me as dumb (GKOTM and the Pacific Rim movies did) and the good cast usually goes to waste (in this one, they really rammed the cast full of people deserving better material; when David Strathairn popped up, I gave up - but then, it's always good to see Sally Hawkins, isn't it?).
Still, it would be silly of me to criticize these movies; they deliver what they promise, and they're good at what they do.
It was just before dawn

The Hunt:
Violent, bound to offend conservatives and liberals alike, this black comedy has something for everyone.
5/6 beers on the RFSRS
Finally got to see Crawl. Tense, fun and in the upper echelon of 2019 movies for me.
Watched Begin Again with the family tonight. So impressed with this indy gem - a big small film. Nothing cliche about it. The whole cast (Ruffalo, Knightly, Levine, Steinfeld, Cordon, Green, and Def) is superb. Plays like a tribute to the writer/director's equally small film Once. Great stuff. 9/10.
I watched 3 movies that were new to me over the weekend.
Halloween
This was the newest one by John Carpenter which is supposed to be a direct sequel to the original and completely ignores all the other sequels.
Spoiler:
Overall I'd give it a 2.5/5.
Cars 3
Spoiler:
Give it a 4/5.
Replicas
Spoiler:
Give it a 1.5/5Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
Some of the best films I've seen so far this year
The Gentlemen
A Ghost Story
Parasite
The Invisible Man
Amadeus Director's Cut
1. You watched Halloween outside of the Halloween season? Such a rebel.
2. I loved the new one Halloween, but can see where you're coming from about some of the similar stuff. Halloween Kills is coming out later this year so now you're all caught up.
3. Replicas was pretty lame, but I ended up enjoying it because it was such an easy, mindless watch.A NEW GAME BEGINS
Avengers: Endgame 9/10
The Hunt - Fun exciting and unpredictable. Tarantino ish. 5/6
Good Will Hunting - Final watched and enjoyed it. 5\6
Maybe I will watch ET and the Indiana Jones movies (not a Harrison Ford fan, except Star Wars)
Wish List:
Any of the following flatsigned or inscribed-
It, Shining, Salem’s Lot, Mr. Mercedes, The Stand
Brother ARC, Seed ARC
The Platform... on Netflix is one damm good horror movie. It’s insane. 8.5/10

It's next on my list...once I watch all my TV shows for the week.
A NEW GAME BEGINS
Watched The Lighthouse last night. Really enjoyed it. The cinematography in it was amazing. I listened to a little bit of the commentary and it was fascinating to hear how they did certain shots. There was also a documentary on the dvd which was equally intriguing. It basically covered the whole production. I love behind the scenes footage like that.
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
The Lighthouse is definitely an intriguing fable. All the nods to Greek and Norse mythology made it that much more enjoyable for me.
Just watched The Invisible Man. I thought it was a decent take on a classic story with a fairly predictable "twist". I'd give it like 3.5 out of 5.
