    Watched Life the other night with the hubs; not terrible but the ending was a twist I did not expect. 7/10.

    Watched Moana with my kids a few nights ago. Last movie I saw in a theater was the Captain Underpants movie.

    Obviously I don't have much say when it comes to movies.

    But Captain Underpants wasn't nearly as bad as I'd anticipated.

    that would be "gravity" w/ Sandra Bullock

    imho - some films demand the big screen (I'm fussy like that)

    I watched it on my phone on the most bare-bones international flight ever :frowning:

    yeah, big movies need a big, big screen, and big sound.

    examples: Alien, Blade Runner, 2001, Inception, Avatar




    *disclaimer:

    I'm a complete film snob and very opinionated on the subject. I studied film criticism in college and it stuck.

    That reminds me I wanted to see the new Alien movie. I don't watch many movies.

    it was the last film I saw at the theatre

    it was good (not great, but good)

    yeah, go see it


    anything by Christopher Nolan or Alejandro Iñárritu (who is the best working director today, imho) needs to be seen on the big screen.

    We saw Inarritu's film, Birdman, on a big screen with the soundtrack stripped out of it. The musician of the soundtrack, Antonio Sanchez, played the soundtrack live during the screening of the film. It was mind blowing, at least to me.

    *Birdman won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2014, and deserved it.

    I like to consider myself a bit of a film connoisseur as well but Birdman escaped me. It was very much like Black Swan in that I could see it was a well made film about a subject that does not compel me. I have no particular affection or appreciation for the ballet or the theatre. I think these films are both highly lauded by insiders and, had I a greater love of live theatre, I might have been more impressed with Birdman. As it is, it was mostly lost on me, the end in particular. I'm sure it doesn't help that I really don't care for Michael Keaton either.

    If selecting films to watch based on director, I recommend: Rian Johnsonn (Brick, Looper), Gareth Edwards (Rogue One, Monsters), Guillermo del Toro (Pan's Labrynth, The Devil's Backbone), the Cohen Bros. (so many worthy films--love, love them all), Darren Aronofsky (Requiem for a Dream, The Fountain), Neil Marshall (The Descent, Dog Soldiers), Alphonso Cuaron (Children of Men)

    good stuff!

    also, to be fair, the first time I watched Birdman I was under whelmed.

    I've now seen it 3 times and think it's amazing.

    the dialogue is stellar; it's not as crisp as a Mamet film,but it delivers.

    Saw Dunkirk today. SO GOOD. Go see it in the theater. Saw it in IMAX (because that was the only choice) and it was AWESOME. One of the best movie-going experiences I've had in a long time.
