    Monkeyman 7.5/10

    It was supposed to be an India version of John Wick. Not quite. Dude gets his arse kicked for 75% of the movie, only to train for like 1 day, and become a fighting expert. Also, not enough John Wick gun play in this one. Revolvers don't count.

    I forgot I watched this movie a few weeks back. Decent flick. It was a bit over the top at times but once again, another entertaining flick.

    Your rating seems about right.

    Slim picking with the new releases for August across the spectrum...Neflix, MAX, Prime. Ugh. Gonna be a long month.

    One showed up kindly and it is a dilly.

    In '85 -Return of the Living Dead-

    Has a super blend of merciless horror gently laced with sharp comedy in the clutches. The culmination is tightly wound and released in a most professional sequence by the U.S. Army.

    A girl named "Trash" in the movie (Linnea Quigley) [don't look her up, at 66].

    She runs around for more than half this movie completely naked and she has an ass & attendant crack that is beyond description. She is adorable here.

    Middlin' actors Clu Gulagher, James Karen, and Don Calfa legitimize the film on contract and the kids flesh it out.

    It's at 91 minutes and everything is done before the bell sounds.

    The production knew where they was going from start to finish with this story.
    They knew.

    It's on the Prime Stream at no additional charge.
    Return of the living dead is in my top 10 movies of all time,,,,its in' amazing fun,,,,,right up there with Tremors, The Burbs, Big Trouble in Little China and Murder by Death,,,,all top 10 of all time on my list as well,,,,Godfather 1 and 2 are on the list too,,,,Young Frankenstein and Life of Brian might just about round it out on the top 10. Triangle with Melissa george is great just because i in' love Melissa George,,,,,,she is as hot as a firecracker on the 4th of July,,,,

    The premise sounded okay.
    But the delivery looks like it falls way short. In no small part due to that massive got John Cena being co-star.

    I miss the excitement of the movies. I don’t look forward to anything aside from Oppenheimer and whatever a few of the posters in the movie thread rate.

    What year did it officially turn to ? 2019? Maybe earlier?

    2019 was a really great movie year tbh (OUATIH, Parasite, Knives Out, Peanut Butter Falcon, Ford v Ferrari, The Irishman, 1917, Uncut Gems & Joker if you’re into that kind of cinema), but the blockbusters that year were mostly terrible.

    2020 is when it really all went downhill.

    It's been bad for a long time but you're right, 2020 did indeed kill the movie industry.

    The Substance. 3/10

    Reading the quick synopsis, thought it was going to be a drama, didn't know it was closer to being horror. Had literally no idea what to expect, but it was low budget and predictable and if you want to see how 60 year old Demi Moore looks, she's full naked for better or worse about 30 minutes total of the flick...

    I really liked it and it had a lot of things that were very relatable. No my mom didn't do drugs, but, just cir stances as a whole. I can see why the Ivy League oligarch elitist bags could come up with bull about him like claiming he's "weird", tbh, but it's bogus.

    it's definitely been bad for at least around 15 years or so. It's just that most of the ideas have been spent and are not novel especially with respect to fiction.

    Um, JV Vance IS an Ivy League oligarch elitist bag.

    joker 2... all i heard about this is that its ... now, i don't think its great, or even good, but it ain't the worst thing ever... probably something like a 4/10... All the musical stuff is in there just to make the movie longer and its pretty clear that Todd Phillips didn't wanna make it. Performances are good and the movie looks great, but the story is just meh and most people will hate the ending... Reminded me of Hangover 2, just that, that movie's ending didn't suck as much.

    1/10

    Not that I had high expectations. I think the first one is overrated, but it at least has some redeeming B-movie charm and funny scenes.

    This one just felt like it was made to capitalize on Jenna Ortega's Wednesday being popular, and featured a number of unnecessary characters and subplots that felt like they were satisfying a corporate studio board's focus group checklist. Shaggy-haired twee love interest for the teenage protagonist? Check. New villain who's even badder than the le character, with a cool look that we can sell as a Halloween costume? Check.

    Hey, people love the shrunken head guy from the first movie, let's have twenty of them for no reason! What's funnier than Beetlejuice? BABY Beetlejuice!

    Honestly the only surprise was they didn't find a way to cast Paul Rudd.

    Woman of The Hour on Netflix. Best movie I have seen in 2024 by far. Its at true story about a serial killer in the 1970's. Written by Anna Kendrick. Excellent movie IMHO.

    I couldn't get through a qtr of the movie. Michael Keaton, this time around, looked more like Temu BJ that BJ back in the day. The movie was horrible for what I saw of it.

    Found a good one last night on Prime. -13 Sins-

    Gets a might (busy) and off the kilter as it moves along toward the finish line, but, still it's fresh and the acting is top notch up and down the list.

    6/10. Well produced but the impending convergence of the two main characters ended up being anticlimactic
