Sunday afternoon at the movies saw this with Mrs GF totally over the top..

Saw it this afternoon, over all thumbs up.

Spoiler: Spoilery Thoughts

Over all thumbs up, but I didn’t care for it as much as Fury Road.

Some things didn’t quite make sense/ploy holes, (maybe jsut to me)

After she “escapes“ and shaves her head, then makes a new life a scrawny boy mechanic…. Later she’s parading around with her long hair, how/why did Immorten Joe not throw back in the prison with the rest of breeding women??

In a world where everyone is out for themselves…. How is there a caring, nice person willing to risk their lives for her (the Pedro Pascal looking dude?) this whole subplot made no sense to me…. its almost as if life at the citadel wasn’t terrible, and resulted in normal people willing to help each other out.

Lastly….the voiceover at the end, who was that? If the film had started with a voice over, let me tell you the tale of Furiousa, or some such, it would have made much more sense.

Chris Hemsworth as Moses..his biker army harked back to the original gang in Mad Max. Postmodernism is alive and well..🤣

Interesting, although probably something we've seen dozens of times before.

Hangman with Al Pacino and Karl Urban. Junk. Not exactly boring but all characters are forgettable. The bad guy doesn't make a ton of sense - and wait till you find out the serial killer's motive.

and wait till you find out the serial killer's motive

Was it because someone made him watch Hangman?

I got about 80% of the way through and couldn't finish it.

I watched Hit Man last night, and yeah, she was super hot throughout. The movie itself was fun, but not as great as reviews led me to believe. It was kinda schizophrenic- like three movies strung together. The first part was sort of a goofball cop comedy, the second part was straight up rom-com, the third part was film noir-ish, with a kinda Coen brothers vibe, but not as bleak as either of those. Like I said, fun; mostly because Powell and Arjona are charismatic as hell, but really not a great movie the more I think about it.

Watched Hitman today with my significant other. I highly recommend you do the same.

I did. It was... productive.

Open House on Netflix.

A masterpiece.

Do these kinds of movies fall under a genre?

Can’t stand them. And it seems actors turn to them when they get older.
