The Last Movie You Watched?

[esswun]

A Bigger Splash. I dunno...it's one of those indie films with big names that has its moments but the sum of all parts is just okay. Or maybe I just don't "get it". I could never get anyone I know to even watch a film like this.

Ralph Fiennes was pretty darn good playing a loudmouthed hedonist. Dakota Johnson easily played the "sexy young girl". Tilda Swinton didn't sell me on being an international "rock star", but played a role with almost no dialogue and only physical acting pretty well. The other guy was so familiar to me but I just couldn't place him even after looking up his other roles.

Two hours of life absolutely wasted, smh.

Usually, Rotten Tomatoes critic rating is very low when audience rating is high.
When critic rating is 91 and audience rating is 84, I get suspicious.

Space Jam 2.

Absolute crap. As in a steaming pile.

Even my 8 year old was bored to death. Dumb story, awful acting (even Don Cheadle was terrible!) and the effects were bad as well.

Not recommended in any way. Much better family/kids movies out there.

The Little Things

What a waste of casting in a lifeless story.

Witches -

Wow, I seem to be on a roll with choosing bad movies lately.
A capable casting in a downright violent and no joy movie.

Mouse speaks, 3 fingers, Nail clapping and the moral of the story - teach violence to children!

The older version of Witches with Angelica Huston is wonderful. I haven't seen the Hathaway version.

I loved her performance in The Addams Family (1991), that was a good approach.

I still prefer The Addams Family (1964) series, it is as good as it gets.

Carolyn Jones and John Aston were perfect for the roles.

I actually liked it. Slow in the middle though.

Boss Level. Premise has been done to death but it was surprisingly fun to watch.

Agreed. Not an academy award winner by any stretch, but a fun movie for sure. Mel Gibson was surprisingly good.

Absolutely idiotic but such a fun movie that never gets talked about. Think Cannonball Run with a bunch of old morons trying to find $350k of stolen $$$. Classic. …

Edie Adams, Milton Berle, Sid Caesar, Buddy Hackett, Ethel Merman, Dorothy Provine, Mickey Rooney, Dick Shawn, Phil Silvers, Terry-Thomas, and Jonathan Winters. What a great cast and it still holds up almost 60 years later.

Plus there are a ton of cameos! When my mom was alive she'd get impatient with my brothers and me. We'd all impersonate Dick Shawn and say "I'm comin' mama!"

Lee Marvin at his very best. His closing line to Ralph Bellamy is a classic: (as best I can recall) "Some men are born bastards, but you are a self-made man."
