        The Predator: 7/10

        Overall I thought it was decent. I liked the references to the previous films and the pacing. Not sure about the apex predator idea since this was done in Predators. I did like the characters though and thought they carried the film pretty well

          Equalizer 2: 7/10

          I liked it well enough but it wasn’t any different from the first. Very predictable too. I knew who the antagonist of the film was before they even revealed him [emoji23] other than that, the action sequences were excellent

          Venom: 5/10

          Pretty mediocre film imo. CGI looked horrible and the plot was a bit boring. [emoji107]

            I thought it was a fun movie, though you could tell it suffered from some bad editing and weird rewrites.

            And Predators was underrated…

              Oh yea I must watch Equalizer 2, have been pushing it down the list for no particular reason.

              I enjoyed the first one very much so more of the same sounds like a sound offering. 😎

                The Man from Earth: Holocene

                A sequel to a movie that didn't call for one, this one was predictably disastrous in its unmitigated suckiness. I don't intentionally watch many "so bad it's good" films so maybe it's a matter of lack of routine, but watching this was an exercise in rolling your eyes (mine are a bit sore now).

                2/10 and the points are for the original concept, introduced in the excellent first movie. This turd added nothing. I'm livid but will get over it.

                  Saw Into the Spiderverse yesterday.  Definitely worth going to see in the theater @Chris .  Animation/writing/soundtrack/voice work/etc, fantastically done across the board…

                  This 100%. I really enjoyed it too.

                    I saw the documentary 'Last Man on the Moon' over the holidays. I'm definitely late to the party on this one (movie came out in 2014) but it was excellent.

                      Really enjoyed Blackkklansman. Heavy topic, but handled well, enough action and comic relief to dilute things a bit. The epilogue was moving. I get the sense that some serious liberties were taken with the story, but that it's based on a true story is interesting as well.

                      Think it, be it.

                        +1 - I watched this on a plane over Christmas and thought it was great

                            Avatar was an amazing movie from a technical perspective, but man, it's crap otherwise.  I wonder how terrible it is without the wow factor of 3D.

                            On a side note, that Avatar Flight Of Passage ride at Disney is f-ing phenomenal…

                              Never saw Avatar so I figured I’d give it a go. I typically like Cameron’s work but the cgi aspect usually kills things for me. I have low expectations

                                I loved Avatar actually. I agree the story isn't deep (but then again, few SF movies have deep stories), and the imagery is phenomenal.

                                  Watched it just now, agree with everything you said and with your rating as well. This kind of a movie is an exceedingly rare beast and I’m thankful to Fuqua & Washington for sticking to the formula.

                                    Aquaman is great. It's not going to make you think, but you'll have a good time.

                                        It’s a freakin shark movie so I had low expectations. Watched it with my boy who liked it.

                                          What's the opposite of a "feel-good flick"? This was one. I expected the story to have more depth to it but it was very straightforward. A bit different from the norm and I can see where the reputation for "outraged audiences" comes from. Interesting, watchable. Probably a strong 6/10.

                                            That was an hour 45 minutes of my life wasted. Worst reboot ever. I liked Alicia Vikander in Ex Machina but holy shit this was dreadful.
