The new Hellboy was garbage. He spent half the movie running for his life, screaming and trying to be funny.
At one point he was nearly killed by like three regular ass humans with spears. I really don't know shit about the source material, but I don't buy a demon, the supposed harbinger of the apocalypse, getting his ass kicked by a few dudes with pointy sticks. I will say, the Baba Yaga was really well done. Super gross and creepy. |

Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
A movie about people having sex and absolutely nothing happened because of it. No resolution. Some girls went to Spain and had sex with a guy one summer. That's it. That's the plot. Enjoyed it, though. |

I really want to like Taron Egerton, but man he's put out some shit movies. This one falls right in line. Some of the action sequences are OK, most aren't. None of them have any consequence, and the actors know it and you know they know it. There is less than 0 plot. No stakes, no nothing. It's all an excuse to do some crazy choreographed fights. |

Robin Hood is such a strange license. It’s always around despite the fact that I feel like it’s never truly been all that popular in media. We all know the story but I can’t remember a single film that was a smash hit. |

I really enjoyed the Crowe version, but I don't think it was deemed as very successful. I don't know what this one did at the box office. Hopefully burned hard. I'm a sucker for medieval flicks so I'll keep watching them. |

The only thing I ever liked about Hellboy was the wind-up Nazi.

Watched Leap Year last night.
The only thing more beautiful than the Irish scenery was Amy Adams. |

I highly recommend seeing Uncut Gems in theaters folks. It was sensational and Adam Sandler gives a great great performance in it (Kevin Garnett was pretty good too and played a key role).

Guess that's on me 'cause the Costner flick was before my time. I've only ever seen brief snippets on YouTube of his horrendous accent.

LOL. Yeah. Him and Slater were just straight horrible castings. But it’s not a bad watch even with the age. Morgan Freeman and Alan Rickam are as good as Costner is bad.

Watched the Green Book. Oof. There was some of that I had trouble swallowing.
All in all well done. There were approximately 487 billion places it could trip up, but managed to keep me in it the whole time. Performances were top notch all the way around. I don’t remember how it was reviewed but I thought it was excellent. Especially Mortensen, I didn’t know he had that character in him LOL. |
