Wife didn't feel well last night so I watched
One battle after another.
Not a big Sean Penn fan but he was outstanding in his role probably Oscar worthy. Benicio Del Toro was awesome as well.
Trippy story.

 

I watched the Springsteen movie last night and was surprised at how much I enjoyed it and how well done it is. It got panned by most people, but I thought it was great. Only weird part was the love interest stuff, that dragged for a bit. Loved the development of the songs and albums at the time. It occurred to me that the movie itself was kind of intentionally mimicking the Nebraska album, in terms of not being a conventional commercial money maker project. Overall I'd give it an 8/10, although my enjoyment was higher than that. Glad I didn't pay to see it in the theater, very good at-home "video movie."

 

Watched The Rip on Netflix. Wasn’t expecting it to be good, but actually really enjoyed it. Great tension, good action…it was a solid B.

 

Watched "Secret Mall Apartment" documentary on Netflix last night and it was very interesting and well done.

 

Ditto.

 

Greenland 2: Worse than the first one. It came off to me as corny and contrived. This should not have been made.

 

Just finished Kidnapped: Elizabeth Smart on Netflix. Hit me like a ton of bricks to relive the horror and disbelief.

If you are 50+ and remember when it happened, watch.

 

Is anyone actually a Sean Penn fan? I feel like everyone caveats their praise for him with that statement. He’s a good actor though.

 

It bothered me that they kept referring to it as a “project” instead of “squatting.”

 

Technically and legally, I get that, but within the greater context of what they were doing (outside the mall) it was an act of "performance art."

 

That was certainly their “interpretation” of it.

 

Just finished Nuremberg. 8.5/10 but it was 2 1/2 hours long.

Russell Crowe gained 50+ lbs for his role as Hermann Goring and carried the movie IMO. Rami Malek did OK but maybe wasn't the right guy to play Douglas Kelley. It didn't quite fit. I found it strange to see John Slattery playing an Army Colonel.

 

I wanted to see this but every time I checked over at Willowbrook AMC it was never there, figure it will stream

 

not really a Neil Diamond fan but watched Song Sung Blue--it was fantastic. Very enjoyable, Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson were both incredible. Easily a 10/10 for me, just a really enjoyable movie to watch.

 

Saw Predator Badlands on Hulu and it was pretty good. Didn't know they were going to do a "Sinners" with the main character. It overall worked pretty well.

Spoiler

 

Finally watched Good Boy and enjoyed it.
