Watched it last night. Very decent movie, good action and story. With that post-credit scene, I would hope they consider a sequel. Yeah, definitely worth watching. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blood_Hungry_III Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I watched the Netflix documentary A Secret Love. I really enjoyed it but it was very emotional. I'd recommend it if you need a good cry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSXtreme_ Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Buck and the Preacher (1972) - 7 out of 10 The fight was against the raiders... but the feud was between themselves! The Civil War was over and by law the slaves were freed. But when the promise of land and freedom was not honored, many ex-slaves journeyed out of the land of bondage in search of new frontiers where they could be free at last. They placed their hopes in the hands of the few black wagonmasters that knew the territories of the West. None of this came easy, for for not only did they have to overcome a hostile wilderness, but Nightriders and bounty hunters were hired by persons unknown to hunt them down and turn them back to the fields.This picture is dedicated to those men, women and children who lie in graves as unmarked as their place in history. Coma (1978) - 6 out of 10 Imagine your life hangs by a thread. Imagine your body hangs by a wire. Imagine you're not imagining.

StressEater Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 So, I just watched this movie called Vivarium on Amazon Prime. Since I literally just finished it, I am not sure if it was any good or not. I am currently standing here trying to figure it out. It is one of those bizarre movies that ends weird and leaves you thinking. I am however starting to think that Jesse Eisenberg is a bad actor. He has played several roles with completely different characters but for some reason he acts the same in them all. It is like there is no depth to the guy. But then again, I am not an actor and I have no idea how hard it is to be one. So what do I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSXtreme_ Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Time Walker (1982) - 6 out of 10 For eons they traveled the galaxies. For centuries one was trapped in a Pharaoh's tomb. Now he is free. From deep within the tomb of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun, Professor Douglas McCadden ships the coffin of Ankh-Vanharis to the California Institute of Sciences where X-rays reveal five diamond-like crystals hidden within the coffin. Technician Peter Sharpe steals the crystals but doesn't notice that the powerful X-ray has revived a green fungus. When the coffin is opened at a university press conference, the reporters uncover more than they bargained for. The mummy has disappeared... and the Time Walker is alive again! Spaced Invaders (1990) - 6 out of 10 A crew of Martians overhears a radio broadcast of Orson Welles' "War of the Worlds" coming from Earth, and, thinking the Martian fleet is attacking Earth, they land their broken-down ship in a backwater mid-American town. As luck would have it, they land on Halloween and get mistaken for trick-or-treaters. Comedy ensues as the Martians try to get taken seriously. Without Warning (1994) - 7 out of 10 The most frightening cosmic event of the century. A television program is interrupted by a news network announcing that three meteors have hit the United States, France and China. At first it seems natural but after interviews by scientists and eyewitness seems to suggest that it is not. Three more meteors are coming and the various Earth governments combine forces to stop them. An updated version of Orwell's radio broadcast of H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds. The Stuff (1985) - 7 out of 10 Are you eating it... or is it eating you? Amalgamated Dairies hires David "Mo" Rutherford, an FBI man turned industrial saboteur, to investigate a popular new product called “the Stuff,” a new dessert product that is blowing ice cream sales out of the water. Nobody knows how it’s made or what’s in it, but people are lining up to buy it. It's got a delicious flavor to die for! A retelling of 1959's The Blob with an 80s twist.

Guest Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 (edited) Review: 10/10 I adore Elton John, and I'm glad he let us see him in his raw glory. Honestly thought the entire movie would be all about how great Elton is/was/will always be, but they showed him at his worst as well. You get to see Elton go head first into rock bottom in beautifully shot sequences. I didn't expect the movie to be more like a musical than a docu-pic but it surprisingly works due to Elton's life (at least mostly his adult life) being one continuous performance both on and off stage, so in a way it makes complete that a docu-pic about him would be staged as a musical. The scenes where Elton is singing are irresistibly gorgeous. Came incredibly close to crying in the final scene/sequence of the movie. Beautiful movie, and Taron and the costume/make-up team did an unbelievable job making us believe it was Elton in the movie.

PSXtreme_ Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Q (1982) - 5 out of 10 Its name is Quetzalcoatl. Just call it Q. That's all you'll have time to say before it tears you apart!

Pauly Shore was that weird 90s phenomenon where he was never funny but he made a ton of movies. I mean I probably watched all of them growing up (a few times) but rewatching them now they are painful to sit through (except a Goofy Movie...that is still awesome). I mean Encino Man and Biodome were a couple of my go to comedies when I was a kid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately the daughter gets pregnant and the repercussions of the night drift into the future.

A co-rival in the family is a nephew who has been raise to take his father's place in the family as a hit man and has established his place by assassinating a man who killed a Senator's daughter. However, he is proven to not be ruthless enough and moves into the family's casino business in Vegas. When the nephew falls in love with a beautiful actress, everything is set in place for the grandson to set up a coup to take over the family.

RoastedPeanut Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets - 2002 Seriously? It's been 18 years since, for reasons still unknown to me, I saw this in the cinema on a high school excursion for English class?! Anyway, it's that time of the year where I find myself sitting down and watching through all of the Harry Potter films. I admit this one is my least favourite of the eight films, but I still get a kick out of watching it. Later tonight I'll be throwing on Prisoner of Azkaban Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
