I need Civil War reviews from one of our resident communists then one from a resident fascist.

Not very political unless you are trying hard to read into stuff. It’s not a war movie or an action movie but has some of both in it. We went and watched it this weekend and enjoyed it. I lean right. lol. Does that make me a racist fascist?

Bingo. I saw it last week; it's more from the POV of journalists covering a war and the things they have to go through, than it is about a modern era civil war and political divide, which is what the trailers hyped it up to be.

It was okay.

Watched the original 3:10 to Yuma over the weekend. Still a solid movie after 67 years.

Saw "The Fall Guy" this weekend with the wife. Not bad but not great. If you like action and stunts worth a see. Was hoping for better honestly.

Was it better than when you saw it for a nickel in High School?

Another nickel got you a large popcorn, soda, a slice of prime rib, plus a handy from the cute ticket counter girl. The good old days under President Eisenhower.
When I was around 9-10, we got a quarter to go to the show on Saturdays. That quarter got you into the movie, a candy bar and coke. On the way out after the movie they gave you ice cream. I hated when it was a Creamsicle.

Late Night with the Devil: good horror movie, nothing groundbreaking. I felt it could have been a little longer. Trippy ending

Mad Max Fury Road: I liked it a lot more the second time I watched it. Good, fun, over the top post apocalyptic action movie.

The Iron Claw: I grew up a big WWF fan and I’ve recently become fascinated by pro wrestling history so I really enjoyed this. I do feel like we didn’t get enough time with each character but I understand that’s hard to do with such a big, fucked up family. Pro wrestling really screwed up a lot of people and families and the Von Erichs were the worst example of that other than Chris Benoit.

Is Late Night with the Devil on one of the services yet?

Did Zach Efron get that big or was it make up / cgi? If he put in the work, Bale’s Machinist has met it’s opposite equal.

I “rented” it

I know he bulked up quite a bit but it just looked so fake.

For all the Rocky fans out there just watched Rocky V. Liked it a lot despite the fairly poor reviews. A lot of good heart felt scenes and of course fighting. I'd check it out if you haven't seen it, even though it's older.

"Rocky 5" is the worst of the series and while it isn't a good movie it does have good moments. Putting Rocky back in his South Philly neighborhood was a promising direction to go. The street fight at the end is one of the best of the whole franchise. I do think it's interesting how the film doesn't even try to address how Rocky comes home immediately after his 1985 fight against Ivan Drago but somehow it's now 1990. Just how long was that training montage in Russia in "Rocky 4"?

Honestly the promoter was great in Rocky 5! He was really the one that made the plot accelerate. Yes, the street fight and Rocky's scenes with his son at the end were easily my fav. For being the worst in the series, it's still a pretty enjoyable film.

It was going either in the Golf thread or here. Looking forward to the sequel, hopefully Paige is in it.
