Watched a couple lately:
47 meters below, pretty good shark film. Terrifying at times.
Baby driver, some awesome car chase scenes and an excellent soundtrack.
I watced Alien Convenient a while back. Pretty good. Much better than Prometheus.
All eyes on me, uncanny how much he looks like Tupac.
Baywatch, terrible, just terrible.
Boyka undisputed, loved it but I'm a fan of the series.
Chuck, pretty good movie base on Chuck Wepner.
I rarely watch movies, i do not remember last movie I watched but my favorite movie is "Muay Thai Fighter" (2007)
Summaries:
Lifelong friends learn the traditional techniques and skills of Muay Thai Fighting that has been past down from generations. When their training camp is shut down they begin to fight underground and bring the art of Muay Thai Fighting back to life. The fighting in the ring parallels the fight for their life, when the ultimate, highly anticipated, action filled fight demonstrates to be their biggest challenge they are prepared to die for one another.
Fantastic beast and where to find them was very poor.
Rogue One too long and boring
Passenger a waste of time
Bubba Ho-Tep (again)....great movie.....Living in a dilapidated rest home, Elvis (played by Bruce Campbell) and Black JFK (played by Ossie Davis) fight an evil soul sucking mummy to save the old folks residing in that rest home. Solid goofy comedy
The book was just as crazy as the film and it spent an awful long time describing a puss filled boil on the end of his knobQuote:

I mean it's enjoyable which is exactly what I'm looking for, properly done schlock, but hold crap 'Child's Play' is a silly movie. It certainly fits in with the 'Nightmare on Elm Street' & 'Friday The 13th' & 'Halloween' & 'Sleepaway Camp' type movies.
I'm really excited about the movies in my queue though, next up is 'Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse' which looks incredible.
'Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse' hilarious movie here's the trailer

Have been watching Ken Burns The Vietnam war series and really surprised at the depth and big picture background. It gives The Ten Thousand day war released in the early 80's a solid run.
Sully was a good film and nice touch at the end when they showed the real pilot and survivors. Tom Hanks stars in this portrait of airline pilot Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger, which depicts his successful emergency landing of an aeroplane on the Hudson River in January 2009.
Orson Welles in 'The Third Man' brilliant film, BRILLIANT beautifully shot film noir, interesting location and time, playful little soundtrack as done by Anton Karas on the zither....yes, the fucking ZITHER. Watching the first half I was thinking "This movie could actually be remade" then at the end of the film I was thinking "There's no fucking way this could ever or should ever be remade!"....Orson Welles is a fucking legend.
I rather like the style Ken Burns has for his documentaries....however I do notice a slant in his delivery, but then again I would notice that. I really enjoyed Prohibition, The West, Baseball, Jazz, The War, and The National Parks: America's Greatest Idea...The Roosevelts and Cancer The Emperor of All Maladies are in my queue.Quote:

One issue I had was the minimal mention of any effort by the US Allies. Seeing it from both north and south Vietnamese side was really good.Quote:

I have a few days away soon and have a nice 1080p version of this to watch on the way there and back. I'm really looking forward to it. I don't think they're going to show it on English TV.Quote:

There are plenty of subtitled versions available legally and illegally. It's an Italian mafia show. You get a look at another culture, it's got grimy locations, horrific interior decor, loads of violence and it's really well made. Highly recommended.
