🎥 MovieClub Party: Friday/Saturday Features #20 🍿


I have a wedding on Saturday and I doubt I will be able to partake to the event on that night so I picked two movies I already saw. One I loved and was recommended by Ali and one I liked and doubt anyone else has seen. I will share my reviews just to titillate you a bit.

This Movie Party will allow two things to happen:

-people will be able to watch the same movie at the same time and interact here
-people will be able to have common movies to watch over the weekend and share reviews on my other weekly thread.




Event #1: Friday night, Oct. 13 9PM Eastern time (if you want to watch live) and event closes Sunday at 5PM (if you haven’t been able to watch live.)



The first feature is: Hatchet 2
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1270835/


For the night owls: 
The God inside my ear (2017)
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6921112/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_the%2520god%2520inside


***************************



Event #2: Saturday evening. 



First feature: Maximum Overdrive (1986)
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091499/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_maximum%2520ov

My review: It has an overkickass AC/DC soundtrack, an overcool beginning with the brigde, an overcute Emilio Estevez, overrad special effects, overbadass trucks, overwicked dialogues (Curtis: we gotta get some gas. Connie: that’s good because I got to go to the ladies room. Curtis: can I come in and watch? Connie: No, you cannot come in and watch! Curtis: Damn.), overintense love affair and finally, overslick direction from Stephen King. This movie is unfortunately the opposite of overrated.


For the night owls: Trick (2019)
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9177040/?ref_=fn_al_tt_3

My review: I’m one of Omar Epps day-ones so this review might be bias but it’s October and the Halloween vibe here is great (love the killer’s masks and face paints!). The first 5 minutes are awesome and it keeps a pretty good pace although, unfortunately, the final act gets far fetched and convoluted. Overall: fun and entertaining.



You can now reply with a mention of which event(s) you will partake in for the weekend and also recommend a movie (on Tubi or any other free site) for next weeks.


Have fun!

Starting Trick. I watched the first 30 minutes of this before and it was very plot light, which bugged me. I'm going to give it another go.

reply

I'm starting it up too!

reply

I'm 8 mins in and scared shitless.

reply

Never mind my previous question just saw your post here

reply

I bought bud light instead of my usual M. Ultra it was on sale...I thought they tasted the same, they do not!

reply

OOOH...KID ROCK IS GONNA GET SO MAD AT YOU!

reply

This opens with a great music track, I'll give it that.

reply

Smiling creepily does not make a movie, but the black guy from House is here, so I have faith.

reply

I OWN THIS ON BLU-RAY...BOUGHT IT AT DOLLAR TREE...I KNOW I WATCHED IT...BUT I HAVE NO MEMORY OF IT AT ALL.

reply

You have to have two things, compelling actors, check so far, and some level of plot. It can't just be kill and kill again with no reason. Last time I watched this it failed on point 2.

reply

You saw Trick before?

reply

Just the first 30 minutes, you know me short attention span.

reply

This is actually where the movie lost points with me. I feel like they tried too much to have a twisty plot and ended up losing focus in the final act.

reply

So far this is starting to work in a deadpan parody sort of way.

reply

I'm worried it feels like CSI, NCIS, Criminal Minds.

reply

so true. I'm still scared shitless but for different reasons

reply

I bought bud light, it is not the same as M. Ultra...Not worth saving 6$:)

This might be right up your alley!

reply

The first thing I look at when doing beer tastings is the IBU.

reply

Omar Epps looks so bored here so far. I'm getting a distinct feeling that most scenes were the first or second take.

reply

Here's a drunk thought...How cool would it be if we replaced Omar with Hugh Laurie...This movie would rock.

reply

I don't even know if Hugh Laurie could make this movie work if he played the entire thing like this:

On second thought... maybe...

reply

More than one killer or bad editing?
How did Trick get from the deck area when Omar gave chase and five seconds later he's killing that lady cop..?

Hmm...

reply

Tom Atkins in the house!!!

reply

I'm going to bail all, long day today....enjoy the rest of trick !

reply

Thanks for showing up:)

reply

Hope to see you next weekend:)
