The Forest. Awful. Would smash Natalie Dormer, but she is bad at acting.......

Got super baked and switched halfway through to hockey.

Went out and saw Heartbreak Ridge last night. Like him as a person or not, Gibson can make a realistic good movie and this one is. Tells the true story about a kid who enlists as a Marine corpsman in WWII as a CO and takes a huge amount of heat for it from his fellow Marines, his boot sergeant, company commander, and ends up having to stand a court martial before even taking training as a combat medic.

I don't know the actual accuracy of the movie to the facts of it. Going into the movie, I had not even heard of this guy's story to tell the truth of things, but I am definitely going to research this guy. Truly an amazing story.

Leaving the theater, my friend,Kevin, reminded me of GIbson's work in his Vietnam MOvie. "WE WERE SOLDIERS' based on the 1st Cavs exploits under Colonel Moore early in the Vietnam war. Also a true story which depicted the war within a war between Col. Moore and the North Vietnamese commander. That movie was as realistic as it gets in my opinion and really did highlight how terrific the helicopter pilots were who saved my and others bacon thousands of times in that war.

ANyway. Good realistic movie. Not for the squeemish though. Not sure about how many women will take it. Both my wife and her friend were crying during the last part of it and at the end.

Heartbreak Ridge was a 1986 film directed by and starring Clint Eastwood. It's about the American invasion of Grenada in 1983. The film you saw directed by Mel Gibson is called Hacksaw Ridge.

My error. You are correct.

So, The Cawk can't recall the names of movies he saw the prior evening? :thinking:

Sausage party:

7/10. Bonus points for probably scarring my wife for life even after exposure to Mock the Week.

Heard there were some hilarious moments in this, also with a title like Sausage Party you would have to expect some crazy vulgarity.

Monster's University sucked.

Anthony Weiner doc was ok, but could've used more of his wife.

Yeah, I think the thing is she expected a trainwreck fascination with it (Like the puppet sec scene in Team America), but was surprised how far they took it.

And yes, some hilarious moments.

Saw Doctor Strange on Saturday, was entertaining. I'd give it a solid 8/10. Their casting of the Ancient One annoys me a little, but as a whole they did a solid job with the movie.

Reaaallly good.

Quick summary of it? Action, drama...?

I haven't seen it yet, but I have heard a lot of people insist it is NOT an action science fiction movie. Then I watch all the explosions in the commercials/trailers.

Mainly a cerebral thriller, your brain will be working the entire time and the movie is also pretty tense. Think of the non-action parts of the good Christopher Nolan films. But also there's a tinch of good drama, something like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

Definitely not Independence Day as some people (understandably) think from the trailer, which I suggest you avoid if you're interested in the film. I watched the trailer last night after seeing the film and it reveals too much. Part of the great experience was going into the alien situation as blind as the all the characters were. It's a fun puzzle that the trailer shows too much of in advance.

"Drive" was like that. i won free tickets at the mall to see it, i went home and checked the trailer and thought it was gonna be action packed...hardly any action. it was still good, but very misleading trailer.

Thanks. Kind of sounds like Usual Suspects (which I love).

Hacksaw Ridge was a great film. I will be surprised if it does not bring home hardware during awards.

Oh ****. I'm trying to decide between this and Doctor Strange tonight. I don't get out to see movies too much so if I **** this up it may be another 6 months.

Oh, Black Mirror, there we go. Arrival is kind of like a really good expanded episode of Black Mirror. If you like that show you should like this movie.
