The Commuter (2018 ) 7/10
Keeps your attention, worth watching. Could have been a bit more intelligently written.

The Wall (2017) 1/10
The worst war movie I've ever seen - very dull and frustrating to watch. Halfway through I thought "it's got to get better than this, something is surely going to happen" but nothing ever really happens, and the movie became even worse toward the end.

The Headsman (2005) 8/10
A very good historical movie about the persecution of Protestant anabaptists in the 16th century, during the time of Emperor Charles (who ruled both the Spanish and Holy Roman Empires) and his younger brother Ferdinand (archduke of Austria).

'The Night of The Demon' 1957....actually a decent little flick, had good special effects for the time, but it was a bit ambitious with them so it took some risks and didn't pass ALL of them.
Zabriskie Point was just awful...it's relevant to today's politics but holy shit it was poorly executed
I liked The Night of the Demon. A relative of mine (3rd cousin of my paternal grandfather) is in the opening scene, but sadly, he soon dies.Quote:

The Titan (2018 ) 5/10
This movie had potential, with a very good cast (Sam Worthington, Nathalie Emmanuel, Tom Wilkinson), and with excellent technical direction and cinematography. It also has a nice score.
However, the story although it begins well enough, badly deteriorates during the second half.

Son of Aladdin (2003)
It's on Netflix and the only language is hindi, but there's English captions. Very badly animated. Awful movie. I loved it.
Calibre (2018 ) 7.5/10
Lots of tension in this one. It's an above-average thriller, with a well-written story and convincing acting.

Point Break - The remake. Actually, I enjoyed it and when you take away the nostalgia I enjoyed it just as much as the original if not more. Ray Winston's Brit/American twang was a bit off putting and I much preferred Gary Busy as Pappas. I got the same feeling from this as I did from the TV series of Lethal Weapon in that I think I like these guys more than the originals.
A Star is Born. I don't care what you motherfuckers say, I loved it. Cooper and Gaga were awesome. I had no idea it had been done umpteen times before. What made it extra special was that the cinema had a cluster of woman all making far too much noise who all ended up balling their eyes out at the end.

It's about Danny Trejo being an old man and single handedly fucking up corruption in his city with hand to hand combat after he fucks up a couple of skinheads on the bus and the cell phone footage of it goes viral. 134/10. Action packed and full of mad jokes

I was dragged to see it..... then was glad I went.
Nice seeing Gaga without all the meat dresses and weird getups. She can definitely do.
Although on 2nd thought, she may have too much tit and flesh on her bones for you, Miles. ;D
Well randomly searching netflix last night i found this Spanish gem - if you can stand subtitles try it.
An 8.1 score on IMDB

Lady Gaga looks like an anthropomorphic rat to me....a cute one for a rat, but definitely rat likeQuote:

Almost finished with first season of The Wire. Took awhile to get to it but worth the wait. Didn't realize the guy who plays Omar is the one who played Charley White on Boardwalk empire, great actor.
