What movie did you watch this week (02/26/17-03/05/17


I am going to start this thread on this site before someone else does it. Hopefully it will catch on.

So yeah, just comment on the movies I watched and I will do the same for each and everyone. Cheers!

Mine:

Central intelligence (2015 bluray): More of a disappointment than anything. It's not a bad comedy per say but there is not a lot of "laugh out loud" moments. A convenient plot that lacks originally and…intelligence. The action scenes or rather poor too. At least I like the actors...5.5/10

Extract(DVD): From my memories of the first time I saw this I remembered it being original and funny. As I re-watched it, I realized it was original, okay, i'll give it that, but funny? Not really. Good actors with okay performances. Good story with okay dialogue. T'was good the first time, okay on rewatch. 6/10

TMNT: Out of the shadows (2016 Netflix): The first 30 minutes was very bad and if it was not for the fact that I'm a loyal fan (and that my three-year-old was there too), I would've turn it off. Fortunately, it got a little better once Casey came into the picture and the story became a bit less boring. There was a lot of references to the original story which was a good idea but still, the new movies have nothing against the older ones. I don't know if it's just me but it seems like they soften the face features of the turtles so they look a bit more friendly. Another good idea. The plane crash scene was a lot of fun and the graphics were impressive. 5.5/10

Ice age 5: Collision Course (2016 Netflix): Is it starting to be redundant? Maybe. Is it a bad movie? Probably not. Was the story original? I don't really think so. Did I have fun? For sure. Do I have anymore questions? No. 6.5/10

Les Seigneurs (2012 DVD): "A washed-up footballer turned alcoholic and living in Brittany enlists his old teammates to help the local fisherman to win some games in order to raise money and save jobs." A solid feel-good and festive French movie this is. Amazing cast that was well used. Very funny but also relatable. The main actor looked so much like Robert Downey Junior it was almost distracting. As good as a soccer movie can get. 8/10

Kids (1995 DVD): A very crude and convincing depiction of a summer in teenagers's life. It almost feels like a documentary. A very interesting and intimate one. The main male character is not a bad actor but he sort of annoyed me. It's the only thing that bothered me with the movie, everything else was great. 9/10

It's always sunny in Philadelphia season 9 (DVD): The madness goes on, for worst or better. Still love it. Overall: 8/10

02/28/2017 - The Benefactor - A slow paced drama with a coherent story

03/01/2017 - Keeping Up with the Joneses - This movie was actually funny, which was a surprise considering the quality of comedies released in the last few months.

03/02/2017 - Lego Batman Movie - It has something for everyone. Genuinely funny with a solid story and screenplay. I do not remember when I last laughed as much at the movies. The in-your-face as well as subtle references to the comics were priceless. And the IMAX experience made it awesome.

02/26/17-03/05/17 - Yes, dear - TV show - I felt like watching a family centered, harmless comedy. I am about to begin season 5

I loved the Lego movie and can't wait to see the Batman one!

you should keep doing this thread each week but pick one forum and stick with that location. I think that's why not as many posted on this one as in the general discussion.

Yeah, CI was a disappointment. Nothing compared to Pain and Gain, let's say.

It's cool we both watched It's always sunny. I will order season 10 this week.

Zack and Miri...Thanks for reminding me of the movie. I loved it when I watched it years ago. Definitely worth watching again.
