I enjoyed Avengers, though I'd agree with reviews that it depended on the other films in the franchise to do the heavy lifting in setting up the characters.
I was really amused by the "We can deep fry your kebab" sign in the window of a Scottish takeaway, though.
I saw Isle of Dogs on Monday, which is Wes Anderson's latest. That's better than The Avengers.

Jack Reacher: Never Go Back - 5/10. Meh
I typically find entertainment value in Tom Cruise's movies but this one was one big snore fest. The girl who played his 'daughter' couldn't act her way out of a paper bag and was the single most annoying thing about the film.

I watched Batman Ninja last night and I loved it. It was over the top crazy. Batman Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Highly recommended if you want to watch something different.

Trying to watch The Babadook but the little boy is getting under my skin

I thought The Babadook was overrated. The sound really sucked on the dvd and it just wasn't my cuppa tea (and I love horror/thrillers). ::)

SW The Last Jedi: 6/10
Justice League: 6/10felt the same about both movies. Didn't hate them but didn't love them either.
Tonight I'll be rewatching Predators because I never finished it back when it came out in 2010. Looking forward to Shane Black's reboot too.

I kinda remember Predators starting well, but then running out of steam. I agree on Justice League. Really dull, generic bad guy, but Aquaman was fun enough for me to be mildly interested in his upcoming movie.

Predators was ok but not great. Laurence Fishburn showing up halfway thru the film was kinda dumb. Wait, he did the same thing in the movie Passengers. Overall it was just an average film that mimicked the first Predator movie without being as cool.

Oh yeah, I totally forgot he was in it! I just remember thinking that the whole two kinds of predators was weak. The first part was kind of a cool idea, though.

Avengers Infinity War was…......pretty good.
I agree, it was pretty good. Not sure where the series is headed. I understand the end credit scene and the captain marvel clue, but that doesn’t interest me at all. The Movie bummed me out.

Yeh, the more I think back on it the more I think it was actually pretty much just a Disney shit

Just wondering whether anyone other than teenage boys has movie recommendations for me in this thread?
if I here one more superhero flick I'll be forced to watch Irreversible again and the gouge my eyeballs out with a used tampon. -
Three very random flicks I'd recommend everyone:
MILLER'S CROSSING (1990, Coen bros)
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100150/
PATHS OF GLORY (1957, Kubrick)
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0050825
BOUND (1996, Wachowski bros)

If you like Primer, I highly recommend Shane Carruth's second film, Upstream Color.

I'll watch it someday. Carruth lost me over the years because it took him so damn long to make Upstream Color. Just read his bio on imdb and I guess he's married to Amy Seimetz who's one of the actresses from Alien: Covenant. I reckon Carruth could deliver a decent Alien film
