First Blood - Nothing is over! Nothing!

 

[KnightBrolaire]

Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare- This was a damn fun movie. It was nasty, brutal, abut also had a lot of goofier lighthearted moments (like a lot of Ritchie's films). Cavill and the cast in general seemed to be having a blast filming it. There's a good blend of balls to the wall action and skullduggery/espionage bits. It's pretty obvious that Guy Ritchie would be a great fit for making a Bond film based off this, Man from UNCLE and Operation Fortune.
Definitely worth a watch imo.

Just saw Challengers - It was pretty good, I'd give it a 3.5 because it isn't a "really liked it" I give a 4/5, but it is probably like a 3.8 or so if I was being precise.

I only watched it once in the early 2010's, I think, but remember liking it quite a bit. It's one of those movies that I feel like should've gotten more attention but went very unnoticed. I also loved Donnie Darko since seeing it in high school around that time so I liked the vibe Richard Kelly brought to it. Not sure how well it holds up, but I actually remember being impressed with Seann William Scott's performance but should rewatch it for The Rock.

There were some stellar performances in that film. It was the very first time I saw Justin Timberlake an anything other than an annoyance. His performance was solid.

coming back from The Fall Guy.
Not a huge fan of Ryan Gosling, but I admit he's pretty good in it. The movie is fun, especially if you love movies and cinema in general. Lots of nods and 2nd degree (Tom Ryder? really ), action and it shows a huge love for action movies in general. Pacing could have been a bit better but I guess it's like that nowadays. Lots of dialogues for...the sake of it, even if they're pointless sometimes....
8/10

The Wailing- pretty darn good...
then I watched The Sadness.....also good meta theme....

Spoiler: Spoller

Bofh of these ended on a hard down note, hard. Kind of like the bad guy wins end of Squid Game. I love the "your choices and selfishness lead you to this" but its so much drama then ending with a down note. Maybe my silly American mind is expecting at least something fun like the ending of The Crazies. Not necessarily a deaus ex machina saving plot twist, just something.

Is there a bunch of insane practical shots of Chevy K1500's flying through the air?

 

[manu80]

there's a stunt that made me think about it at the end. but the chevy color/look is there in the movie.
don't wanna spoil more details.
Also, if you go and see it, open your ears

MINI SPOILER

(there is a funny noise at a moment, that will remind you of another show back then.Said too much maybe)

Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars - it was pretty bad. I see why they made it, but it spent too much time tying up loose ends and giving fan service and too little time having a compelling plot. Felt rushed and cheesy as fuck, despite the clearly much-higher costume and FX budget. Hindsight is 20/20, but the show was better off ending in a cliffhanger.

Watching this with the kids tonight. I can’t believe this movie is over 30 years old.
