Well it was entertaining and I'd rewatch it. Maybe the second time around I'll know if it's good or not :D

@Dostoevsky will hate it
Finally saw this.

Was weird but I really enjoyed most of it, even if the ending/ final 20 minutes or so was fairly lame.

Very different feel to it from the original trilogy.

and I agree, @Dostoevsky will definitely hate it.

Watched MEG with Jason Statham on Netflix and The Gentleman on Prime, both were entertaining. Statham against a big shark is something the world needed.
The Gentleman was okay, expected more. McConaughey has amazing outfits in the movie. He could be also a good Bond

Fair be foul and foul be fair aaaight

I really, really liked the visual identity, shot composition and photography here. Of course, for obvious reasons there can't be immersion but by design it's not the type of adaptation to rely on immersion to work well. Also plotwise it feels very minimalistic and streamlined, reduced to the basics, thereby matching the visual styling. Rating it an 8/10.

I got rid of Netflix a month ago because of their dark material. I implore all believers to do the same
Netflix is useless. Not only cause of their obsession with race and all that stuff but also cause their catalog is bad.
And to think of all the grief I got for calling out Netflix for this 2-3 years ago...

I'm a cuck for Elena Ferrante's work. The Lost Daughter was pretty good. If you're gonna do a chic flick, this is how it should be.
If it is anywhere near as good as "My brilliant friend" I have to watch it.

I adore My Brilliant Friend. That show is fantastic.

The movie isn’t THAT good. But it’s definitely solid. It’s been picking up a lot of festival awards too (Venice, etc.).

Hey guys, does maybe someone know the name of the movie by my badly written plot summary below:

Is is about a guy who is house sitting for someone else while they're traveling or whatever. While he is house sitting something bad happens, I can't remember if it is a break in or a party gone wrong or even a murder but towards the end it looks like the main guy is in trouble, going to jail or something. He then discovers that everything has been a prank by his friends from the sunflower/pumpkin seeds they were leaving on the floor.

I know it's not much, but it's been driving me crazy. I watched it probably over 10 years ago and I don't think it's a horror movie, seemed more like a comedy or something. Thanks to anyone who can give hints
