Last Seen Contemporary Movie

[FryeDwight]

FREDDY VS JASON (2003). Despite a good knock down drag out fight towards the end, this was just bad. No tension, no suspense, really not much of anything. Can't believe they spent so much money for so little. *

The Russia House (1990), The Constant Gardener (2005) & A Most Wanted Man (2014)



Final phase of my recent marathon on John le Carre film adaptations. Liked them all but surely TCG was the best here. AMWN was an intense modern espionage tale with a very realistic & frustrating conclusion. TRH was more of a romantic thriller with backdrop of the final days of Cold War era - just before the fall of Soviet Union. Bit aged but Michelle Pfeiffer was looking stunning.

>>: B+ (The Russia House),

>>: A- (The Constant Gardener)

>>: B (A Most Wanted Man)

Hope to see The Tailor of Panama (2001) sometime soon & waiting to see Our Kind of Traitor (2016) in coming months. Sad couldn't find The Little Drummer Girl (1984) so far anywhere online.


Puffball: The Devil's Eyeball (2007)



>>: C+


Carnage Park (2016)



>>: B-

I don't feel like giving full reviews for these since I saw them days ago in the theater.

The Purge: Election Year (2016)

Awesome if you're a fan of the Purge movies. My favorite of the trilogy.

Finding Dory (2016)

Pixar knocked it out of the park with this one. It lived up to Finding Nemo, my favorite animated movie, in the best way.

Everybody Wants Some! (2016)
B/B-
From the guy who made Dazed & Confused.
It's very similar but not as great. But it's alright and worth watching if you like Dazed.

Crush The Skull (2015)
B/C
Slightly better than average robbery gone wrong movie with a touch of comedy.
It's a bit cheap but overal pretty decent. Lot of similarities to other movies like spoilers "The Collector, The Collection, Saw, The Cube,..."
Worth checking out.

Eden Log - Kind of like Pandorum with some kind of political message. Not sure what it was, I'm not good with subtext. Could have been better. Probably would have worked better as a video game than it did as a movie.

[SerialKiller]

The Purge:Election Year. Loved it. And to think I watched the 1st one thinking it wouldn't really be my cup of tea.

[TheBossInTheWall]

4/10

No point to any of it really. Lots of character types and situations used ad nauseam were in the film. The big reveal is 'yawn.' Its fast paced so you do not get bored, but I felt like I wasted my time. Poor acting.

[Baron Von Marlon]

Elvis & Nixon (2016)
B
Nice comedy about the true story behind the meeting between Elvis Presley, the King of Rock 'n Roll, and President Richard Nixon.
Starring Michael Shannon and Kevin Spacey.

En Man Som Heter Ove (2015) aka A Man Called Ove
B
Pretty good Swedish comedy/drama about a grumpy old man.
Similar to As Good As It Gets but more sad.

The First Power (1990)



With the help from a psychic, detective Logan (LD Phillips) captures the notorious devil worshiper serial killer known as 'Petagram Killer' but even after the execution he keeps coming back through possessing different people at different time to get his revenge on Logan as well as continue his work...to gain the First Power (resurrection) from Satan!

A pretty fun & entertaining action-horror flick, though kinda silly at times but still enjoyed a lot!

Ever see Fallen 1998 with denzel washington? Basically the exact same story, much better reviews. I liked it. I'm pretty sure I didn't see First Power. I'm afraid it's going to be too silly.
