Hostiles (2017)
If you like films with native americans & some typical western elements, this one should be bullet proof

There barely was a boring moment..it's not revolutionary story telling, but with top class character development.
This one took it's time to make viewers care about people, from both sides.

I saw this one a while back...good one!

Mission: Impossible - Final Reckoning - The stunts in this are great. Two sequences in particular, the submarine and airplane sequences, stand out. The rest of the movie is kind of blah. Not much good in the way of plot, character, or dialogue.

Sinners - Now this was a movie with good plot, characters, dialogue. I never cared so much about the opening of a bar juke joint. Oh yeah the vampire stuff was pretty fun too.

Thunderbolts* - A good Marvel movie?? What is this 2018?

I rewatched The Breakfast Club.

What I hadn't remembered is that the only grounds on which the students can come together is that it turns out they all have bad relations with their parents.

That's plausible. Kids that age routinely have strained relations with their parents. But it just felt like lazy storytelling. Think up another couple of ways that kids can connect with one another.

She's All That, 1999. Another movie from my youth that I didn't see. Was amused to see Matthew Illiard, aka That Guy from Scream. The story is a loose adaptation of Pygmalion: after he's dumped by his Mean Girl girlfriend, Big Man on Campus makes a bet that he can make any girl the prom queen. He chooses a clumsy art girl and finds himself developing Feelings for her.

Well, also based mostly on My Fair Lady (a classic and 1965 Oscar winner for Best Picture), which was, yes, based on Pygmalion

Bring Her Back

2025 Australian horror by the Philippou brothers that also brought us Talk To Me in 2022.

Disturbing more so that scary with some rather gruesome imagery. I got Hereditary and C-u-c-koo vibes early on in the first act, which also meant that I guessed where the story was going, anticipating a specific reveal. Still quite effective, although not as original as their debut feature film. Great performance from Sally Hawkins.
