My turn to work the cinema again, I'm the curtain puller, life has it perks, first up Atomic Blond, from the comic
I just love that acting of Charlize Theron (madmax etc) nice to look at too
but the story suxs so does the berlin wall shit, story is so dumb ..its straight from the comic
Lezzy sex scenes with Sofia Boutella (the mummy)are worth the admission
SCORE 6:10

The Dark Tower, not read the book..? but all the good stuff missing, like characterization
Matthew McConaughey dominates...ugh!
SCORE: 4:10

The story of Barry Seal, an American pilot who became a drug-runner for the CIA
in the 1980s in a clandestine operation that would be exposed as the Iran-Contra Affair.
a lot of fun for the 60yo Tom Cruise, but one big question why would the cia employ an ATO pilot
when the hangers are filled with ex Vietnam pilots experienced in sneaky flying,
a good film the the foundations are shit!
SCORE: 7:10

A humble businessman with a buried past seeks justice when his daughter is killed
in an act of terrorism. A cat-and-mouse conflict ensues with a government official,
whose past may hold clues to the killers' identities.
Jackie Chan, leaping beyond any viable limit along with an old 007 Brosnan for appeal

cont.
Allied soldiers from Belgium, the British Empire and France
are surrounded by the German Army, and evacuated during
a fierce battle in World War II. AVOID Total crap see the 1950's version
SCORE:2:10

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets
A dark force threatens Alpha, a vast metropolis and home
to species from a thousand planets. Special operatives Valerian
and Laureline must race to identify the marauding menace and
safeguard not just Alpha, but the future of the universe.
I liked this maybe more than Guardians of the Universe,
CGI is good too best in the opening as above, another comic flick
we can expect to see more of until the
Screenwriters dispute is settled, but their personal relationship stuff is boo
SCORE:8:10

WIND RIVER: A veteran tracker with the Fish and Wildlife Service
helps to investigate the murder of a young Native American woman,
and uses the case as a means of seeking redemption for an earlier
act of irresponsibility which ended in tragedy.Well written poorly
directed, the director really had some opportunies here but
screwed it all for this fans that like to watch movies on their
iphones.Jeremy Renner(lots of crap movies kept him poor)
does really well here, worth the admission, take your winter togs.
SCORE:9:10

and yes my arms get really tired

The Dark Tower was pretty terrible and had about as much to do with the books as the live action Super Mario Brothers movie had to do with the games.

Matthew McConaughey was really campy and hamming it up most of the time. Idris Elba on the other hand was actually pretty good, don't get me wrong, he acted nothing like Roland did in the books but I'd definitely watch him in another action film. His action scenes were the best parts of the movie. It reminded me of a Sci-fi channel made for TV movie with a much larger budget.

It wasn't good but it wasn't completely terrible but what do you expect from an hour and 30 minute movie based on a story 8 books long and spanning some 4000+ pages

When a murder occurs on the train he's travelling on,
celebrated detective Hercule Poirot is recruited to solve the case.

I got dragged into this one for my english skills..UGH
Kenneth Branagh is a bigtime Shakespeare stage actor in the UK
and do you think that crap leaks into this ...Oh yes
I said to my guys if he starts bleating that Shakespeare crap I'm off for a toke
...I was so fucking stoned at the end and that Cossack mustache irritating so much
it kept moving and Branagh gay/vain ...total vomit: sodomites may enjoy
most true men will avoid ..see the 1974 is true flick art
SCORE: bomb/10

Bodies are turning up around the city, each having met a uniquely gruesome demise.
As the investigation proceeds, evidence points to one suspect:
John Kramer, the man known as Jigsaw, who has been dead for ten years

Horror flicks have been serious bummers for over 10 years,
aimed at the fast money teenie and 20+ something market
not since Seven or maybe Saw has there been any goodies
but this movie can grab you, it does contain the usual 'amercian idea of horror
shallow characters, irritating cheesy lines, and highly manipulative directing
even ridiculous methods of defining death, this has it all
...but its a great story, worth the Blueray and yeah worth a 2nd visit
part 2 on the way, if you go stoned take a second pair of underwear ..lol

Two brothers attempt to pull off a heist during a NASCAR race in North Carolina.
Would Daniel Craig drop his 2017 bond flick for this? ......you betcha!
So Red neck amercan you can smell the popcorn, yet has some serious anti amercan goofs eg.
(Seth MacFarlane's character says his driver and race team will be drinking his energy drink after "lap 600".
The Coca Cola 600 is 600 miles, not 600 laps. This is also confirmed later when an on screen graphic shows
the current lap "of 400". This could be intentional to indicate that the character is not interested
in racing, knows very little about it, and is only interested in advertising his product.)
By euro standards it has some seriously disturbing scenes,
and offers the free world an insight to those that have voted Trump!

in truth a non comedy seriously long, even boring moments
too tough for the likes of Channing Tatum with wishy washy director Soderbergh
