      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.

                    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

                    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.

                                  I liked her in The Man From UNCLE, which was also pointless and terrible.  She should probably stop doing reboots.

                                    I had this checked out from the library before but never watched it. Looks like an easy pass

                                      Really liked it. Well written characters and the story was fantastic. Can’t believe I waited this long to watch it

                                          Why? It’s not a terrible film

                                            I think because the most common complaints against the film were the derivative characters and story.  From a technical perspective, it's an amazing film.  It will be very interesting to see how Cameron raises the bar with the next three, after years in pre-pro.

                                            I'll take AVATAR over 98% of these superhero films, though (BLACK PANTHER & SPIDERVERSE, excluded).
