Worth a night out especially with kiddies.

I just checked my local Dolby Atmos theater to see if Aquaman was running and they have Mary Poppins in there. What a fucking waste. Looks I'll be waiting for home viewing.

Finally got through Bird Box tonight. There's some bad things about it, but I wasn't totally sorry I watched it. That's about the best I could say about it.

As general rule, I don't carry any baggage into a movie. I start watching with the desire to like it and it's the movie's job to not lose that initial good will. The majority of the time I find that most movies are enjoyable in their own way, even if I know they're not actually good by any objective, measurable standard. One of the only things that will make me dislike a movie is if it starts strong but finishes with a whimper. There's been so many times when I wasn't feeling a movie and it won me over in the last act...sometimes in the last few minutes or seconds. If a movie ends well, then all else is forgiven.


Bid Box didn't end very well.

I don't watch many movies, loved Black Panther. Mission Impossible was good, too.

I guess I'm the only person who thinks Black Panther is one the most overrated movies in a long time. It's a serviceable Marvel movie and that's about it. The CG fight with BP vs Killmonger was early 2000's level bad. But I could overlook that if I actually gave a shit about T'Challa.

It seems to be on every ten best list but I'm not getting it.

Mission Impossible though....that's the shit right there.

I went to it thinking it would suck ass, was very pleasantly surprised. Didn't care for the latest Avengers at all.

Black Panther was "ok" to me. Sly can you tell me why you loved it? Were their moments in the film that stood out for you? Maybe I need to watch it again but I didn't love the movie as much as others seem to, and I'm a die-hard MCU fan. To me, "The Winter Soldier" is the best of the MCU. Seen it 10 times, Fucking love it.

Mission Impossible was great.

Mission Impossible was great.

Winter Soldier reminded me of a good 70's political thriller like Day of the Jackal. Something about the tone of it. Good movie...and I've also seen it quite a few times. LOVE the elevator scene.

Not sure that I can pinpoint the "why," though I can tell you I have had issues with the Marvel movies over the last few years with having way too much "fluff." Turning a 2 hour movie into a 2 hour and 30 minute movie for absolutely no reason at all. Those 30 minutes tend to be dry, boring and make me want to stab someone. Every instance of The Avengers, except the very first one, I found myself bored several times throughout the movie. Too much fluff.

With Black Panther I did not think there were any fluff points, I was entertained throughout the whole movie. It's also possible that I liked it as much as I did because I had absolutely zero expectations and actually thought I wouldn't care for it at all.

I *LOVE* these seen too. It's so good! It's a really nice slow build. Somethings going, cap sees it, not sure, maybe he's paranoid, nope, more and more big guys getting on the elevator... wait for it ... wait wait... fucking great scene.

And yes I agree that it feels like a 70's political thriller... maybe a spy thriller... I read somewhere once that one of the reasons Redford was cast was to help the movie feel more 70's.

In my opinion, Winter Soldier is the best movie of the MCU.
