Penguin Bloom (2020)
Nice, feel good movie. Naomi Watts is always worth watching.

The Little Things (2021)
Good moody cop thriller. You know there is something lurking underneath. Th end reveal is awesome.

Tenet (2020)
Visually striking and a brilliant concept on the arrow of time. However, as story telling goes it lacks drama despite the high stakes. The film is confusing and after a while you just don't want to spend the mental effort of trying to understand it.

The Lie (2018)
Forget the reviews. Sure, it was kind of silly but it was a fun movie and I enjoyed it.

Maleficent (2014)

Enola Holmes (2020)
Very enjoyable period piece and coming of age story with great production. The young actress was excellent. Sherlock was appropriately only a minor character.

Bloodshot (2020)
Truly awful--along the lines of GI Joe. One of the worst.

The Chosen Ones (2015)
Warning. This is a very difficult watch. I had to walk away a few times. I was once in Tijuana, where I came across a brothel right next to an elementary school. Yes this world is fucked up. This film was like that. The young actors were almost too good playing their roles.

Dark Phoenix (2019)
This is probably not the fairest review as I watched this on an airplane monitor, but this movie was lousy.

A Ghost Story (2017)
Artsy. Different. Imaginative. Weird.

The Highwaymen (2019)
Excellent period piece. Woody and Kevin are great as always. I disagree with the criticisms that B&C are hardly featured. The film is about the two rangers hunting down outlaws unknown to them. Further it establishes through third characters that B&C were celebrity outlaws. So there was no need to make the story of the outlaws a focus.

Terminator: Dark Fate (2019)
A big improvement over the last 3 crummy T movies. It's sort of a uninspired reboot of the original/T2. Same plot but now without the predictability and surprises. While there are some decent action sequences, the film is also fairly dull after the first half hour. Good to see Linda and Arnold though.

Zombieland: Double Tap (2019)
Not funny and endless f-bombs. The first one was fairly good. I'm surprised at the high ratings for this one. One of the worst movies I have ever seen.

Ad Astra (2019)
Good production. Otherwise it was an empty movie.

Absolute dynamite. Is it Shakespeare? No, but an over the top action comedy at its best.

Polar (2019)
Tongue-in-cheek action thriller. There is some graphic violence but nothing different from any Punisher-like film.

Annabelle Comes Home (2019)
A rather dull affair, with nothing original. Same old same old.
danger W false -
The best Godzilla movie ever. Phenomenal imagery, even better in 3D. The story line and acting were horrendous however. The big reveal doesn't happen until the credits, which is unforgiveable.

The Dead Pool (1988)
Solid Eastwood flick. Carey is hysterical, and the remote car scene a classic.
