been on a movie binge lately,
Inherent Vice is pretty decent, sort of a hippy version of LA Confidential maybe...
Nightcrawler was also decent.
What we do in the shadows was very funny, like The Office but vampires.
Book of Life looks amazing, its well done and a nice kids movie but what it really did well was being visually stunning.
Stunned:A stunned creature drops everything held, can’t take actions, takes a -2 penalty to AC, and loses his Dexterity bonus to AC (if any).
Top Five, pretty good. better than the box office indicates.
Predestination, weird. well made... once you excuse the parts that cant work.. its worth a watch.
Justice Leage Throne of Atlantis, meh. i do not like the New 52 much. it annoyed me in the first 5 minutes w/ a stupid thing they did on purpose. they got some geography wrong.
The Gambler, not a feel good comedy. its like watching an alcoholic drink mouth wash. its very well made and awkward as hell. i liked it, except for the ending.
Whiplash, Juno's dad is a dick. a little boring/ predictable but not bad.
The Monkey King, strangest kung fu movie iv ever liked. only wanted to watch it for Donnie Yen, it delivered on its promises (it made no promises)
Birdman, i like it. Keaton was spot on the right man for the role. i have no clue about the 'special' bit.
Big Hero 6, a close second to the Book of Life.
Hobbit part IX, good enough (thank god its over)
id call all of them 'to rent' except maybe the kids movies if you have kids the right age or have a pathological need to complete your Tolkien collection.
