Top Gun: Maverick (2022). Very solid, fun, feel-good movie that seems to have come from another time when they knew more about making movies. Tom Cruise’s insistence on making the aerial shots onboard real planes with the real actors put the action over the top. It may seem like a subtle difference between real and CG effects, but you can always tell when the real thing is on the screen because it has a certain intangible something that just pops out at you. The supporting cast was refreshingly unobtrusive, and Tom Cruise looked almost as young as the ‘next gen’ pilots he was training. I really liked this movie and can’t wait for the DVD release.

My Little Pony: A New Generation (2021)

 

  100/10 Definitely in my "Top 5 Favorite Movies" now and has taken the place #4 place from Zootopia.

The Adam Project

Was a funny and enjoyable movie. I was expecting it to be boring or corny but I ended up genuinely enjoying it.

 Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness was the last movie I seen in theater. But I did just recently watch Sonic again for the 2nd time.

"Jurassic World: Domination"

[Dreambiscuit 9,983]

The Million Dollar Duck (1971). I really liked this thing. It’s a perfect example of old Disney live-action at its finest. It doesn’t have to be ‘epic’ to be extremely enjoyable, and I loved it. Sandy Duncan kind of stole the show in the female lead; she was so funny.

Rambo (2008). In striking contrast is this goulash of gore from our old pal Sylvester Stallone in this fourth installment to the series. Sadly this is not quite equal to the standard of the series up to this point, as it lacks the comic book super-warrior vibe of the first three. This is what happens when franchises take more than a decade between chapters; they lose their spontaneous identity. The movie suffers from too much realism and focus on the atrocities of the badguys. But if it’s going to go that route I need to see a better pay-off at the end (don’t cut the badguy halfway through when you can chop him cleanly in half!) Come on guys, this is basic!

"Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack"

Yes, it's a silly title, but it's by far one of the darker entries in the series. My third favorite Godzilla movie behind only the original Gojira and Shin-Godzilla!

The Rescuers (1977)  100/10

 

Bianca and Bernard were great main characters and I thought their relationship felt like a

"love at first sight" type of chemistry.

The Angry Birds movie with my best friend (He wanted to and he's never seen it lmao)

Honestly it was pretty good, we laughed quite a bit during it. 

[twilightlicious69 629]

Well, it was both Encanto and MLP ANG. Saw them on the same day for the third time.

[TheAnimationFanatic 3,596]

The Black Phone - A surprisingly tense and investing thriller. Ethan Hawke is terrific as the bad guy.

Elvis

Mom is really into Elvis things so we went to watch. Suffice to say we both came away quite impressed and enjoyed it immensely!

[SweetieDreams 84]

Invader Zim: Enter the Florpus — It wasn’t as epic as I hoped it was going to be. Just felt like a regular episode of the series stretched out into the length of a movie. And for being the main character Zim didn’t really have that much screen time himself, which disappointed me since he’s my favorite character.

Jurassic World:  Dominion  Incredible conclusion indeed  

[TBD 17,256]

Dune. Holy crap what a boring and terrible movie. Many names being thrown around that I have no freaking clue what this plot is trying to get at. The protagonist is very generic and cringe. Lots of repetitive scenes that we already get a freaking idea already. 1/10

 

Minion: Rise of Gru. Not expecting much but it was definitely fun and entertaining!!

[Sparklefan1234 171,910]

 Downton Abbey: A New Era (2022) 100/10

 

[Rosy Moonlight 369]

The last movie I watched was Fatherhood (2021).

It's really good.

[Rosy Moonlight 369]

The last movie I watched was Barbie Princess Charm School.

Its slightly more mature themes about poverty and character made it quite the experience to watch.

[Dreambiscuit 9,983]

Star Wars: Attack of the Clones (2002). I like to get back to basics and hit my Star Wars movies for a quick fix. I love this movie and there’s nothing I like more than seeing Yoda throw down with that lightsaber!

[TheAnimationFanatic 3,596]

Thor: Love and Thunder - Definitely felt like a retread of Ragnarok, only messier and uneven. Still, it's plenty fun to watch and delivers on the comedy. 7 out of 10.

[Clawdeen 15,073]

Mean Girls. I noticed today it was now on Netflix and rewatched it.

Interesting – you won't like the book then!   Also a 'classic' but you have to wonder what the critics are comparing it to. The movie is a David Lynch, so bound to be weird. I quite like it tho, for being more 'out there' than the book.

Jurassic World: Dominion: (SPOILERS) I liked it, just as I liked all the Jurassic World flicks. It was fun, entertaining and action-packed, with some good munching and gratuitous violence. What's not to like? The ending didn't exactly solve any problems or change anything from the state of things at the start of the movie; merely showing dinos and present-day creatures co-existing and saying we're all buddies now and we'll get along, singing koom-bye-ya like there's no food chain, and romping through the meadows hand-in-hand. That's a Hollywood version of reality. But the bug problem was fixed by my hero Dr. Wu, and the movie delivered pretty well, so I can be a cynical jerk all I want, but in the end I still liked it.

Top Gun: Maverick

I tend to be wary of sequels that come decades after the original, but this one blew the original Top Gun away. Intense, more mature, emotional at times (like, I actually got teary-eyed toward the end, which I almost never do during a movie). I'm gonna remember this one for a long time.

[Tropical Melody 6,371]

The Running Man (1987) — gratuitous violence fest   — and despite being set in the 'future' (as perceived back then), it has a definite '80's flavour.
