The Return of Even More Movies You've Watched This Week III

The trailer for Godzilla: King of the Monsters looks awesome, but I’ve been tricked by awesome trailers for ok movies before…

I really really hope the movie delivers.

My fav Seagal movies:

Out for a Kill

Seagal is a mild mannered Professor of Archeology with a hidden past of… STEALING ANCIENT ARTIFACTS. LOLOLOLOLOL.

Belly of the Beast

Seagal is a zen-like ex-CIA agent with a very special set of skills… Shaolin Crane Kungfu, lose 50lbs when the camera’s facing his back during a fight and the ability to glide across the floor very slowly to avoid being detected(probably because he was too heavy for the mostly HK film crew to pull fast enough). All of which he uses when his daughter gets kidnapped in Thailand by Muslim rebels who all speak perfect American accented english.

Submerged

LOLOLOL

From the director of Warlock 2 and Hellraiser: Hell on Earth.

Yeah, Warlock 2 is seriously criminally underrated.

Used to love Seagal movies (Under Siege was actually legit), even though I had to go to a happy place whenever Seagal did his girly-man running scenes.

Found out what a scumbag he is in real life, and now I refuse to watch any of his crap. No “views” for that #^#%^$&&!!!

^^That’s as “PC” as I ever get.

What about his music?

LOLOLOL

You seriously have to go to amazon and read the reviews from 2005 onwards.

How to end a shark movie in 5 minutes:

Saw Equalizer 2 this weekend past. Action was pretty good but can’t say the same thing with the movie. The best part was his interactions with the kid that he was trying to keep out of a gang. I kind of wish they had of fleshed that part out more and made it a bigger part of the movie but oh well

I loved it. What I like about those types of movies is that they aren’t too deep. They’re like the McDonalds of movies. If that’s what you feel like watching, it delivers. No real introspection required. I’d put it with Lethal Weapon, Die Hard etc.

Thanks. Will wait until Netflix.

I agree to an extent. I feel like if it had of committed to the paint by numbers revenge action flick it could be there with Lethal Weapon and Die hard but it tried to be more introspective by exploring Denzel’s character and it failed both the revenge action flick and introspective bit.

I just watched “The Endless” online. It’s a very low budget scifi/horror film, but I really enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed The Sinner. It’s an 8 episode series available on Netflix. In my opinion Jessica Biel earned her actor stripes in her leading role. She was great. Bill Pullman also did a terrific job with his character.

This series is binge worthy.

Saw a film/ mini series called der kommer en dag (the day will come). It is loosely based on a true story centred around abuse in orphanages in the 1960’s, specifically in Denmark. The film is about these two boys (age 10 and 13) who are removed from their mother (ill) and put in an orphanage, in the orphanage they and all it’s inhabitants are subjected to varying degrees of abuse and degredation, very depressing but powerful movie… worth a watch, it’s actually a very good film. After watching I was prompted to look up various information on the history of many orphanages and I was fairly shaken by what I found. It really irritates me when people prey on those who are weaker and smaller than they are, seriously these are fucking children!!! It’s sick to think someone would derive pleasure from hurting a child.

Agreed. I binged this one on Netflix over the weekend when my in-laws were in to see their grandbaby.

I’ve always like Jessica Biel, and Pullman was an excellent ‘man in need of being taught he’s a baaaaad boy.’

I turned it off after 5 mins because the intro looked so low budget and amateurish(I’ve been burnt by too much low budget horror crap that were worse than student films lol.).

Then I gave it another chance after reading your post and watched the whole film. It was pretty good!

Last weekend I went to see Mama Mia two with my daughters. I don’t like musicals but by god I enjoyed the movie regardless. Contrary to obvious plot holes and my abhorrence for random singing in movies I got into it.

The Meg

Meh… The shark is too big to use the normal shark movie tropes. Why the fuck are you trying to hide the shark like the first Jaws did? It’s MASSIVE. You can’t create suspense like this. But that’s what they did till the last act which had one awesome, over-the-top 3 second scene of Jason Statham fucking the shark up. Everything else was just felt weird. They should have just gone nuts and made the shark start fucking shit up like taking down helicopters and tearing naval warships apart or something.

worth a watch in a so-bad-it’s-good kinda way?
