Re: At the Movies...
Might go and see one or both this week. It's been awhile since I have gone to the movies.

Re: At the Movies...
Typical Tarantino movie. Nothing for the first half and blood and gore for the second half. Lots of politics, racial tension and brutality. He is clearly trying to say something.
The movie was at the halfway mark and I was becoming bored and restless but then, thankfully, it started moving along. Tarantino loves long movies but he could easily cut them to 2 hours instead of 3 to alleviate the long drawn out nothingness.
Brilliant performances from Jackson, Goggins (I loved him in Justified, he is a real talent), Jason Leigh and Russell. Lots of witty and humorous quips but when it ended I just felt like something was missing.
7/10. I've seen better lately.

^^^^ Edit because I didn't even state the name of the movie I was talking about duhhh, but mentions of Tarantino should have given it away.
Will see The Revenant over the next few days.

Re: At the Movies...
I took my son to see Daddy's home the other day. He is thirteen years old and besides Star Wars, which he has already seen, there was not much to choose from for his age group during the school holidays.
It was corny but I laughed a lot even though Im not a big fan of Will Ferrell it was good mindless entertainment.
5/10.

Re: At the Movies...
Long movie, didn't need to be, some lovely landscapes, simple plot, Leo's character was having a really bad month. Gruesome scenes, some incongruities, strong on the brutality of the times natural and otherwise. Didn't make me want to see it again, ever.
6-7/10

Re: At the Movies...
I assume you are talking about The Revenant?
I am not a fan of Tom Hardy anyway but he mumbled throughout the whole movie. I had to really strain to understand what he was saying and that really annoyed me. Like the Hateful Eight it was way too long. It was ok but I wouldn't back up a second time either.
Can't critique the acting as there were long periods of no dialogue at all. Leo did ok. Tom was bleh.
Most of the movies I have seen lately have been rubbish.
