Rate The Last Movie You Saw
The Philadelphia Story (1940) +++ Very happy to have seen this with Cary Grant, Katherine Hepburn and Jimmy Stewart; from the iconic opening, I had a big smile and most of the set up was very much to my taste.
Not exactly sure what happened, but, while I really liked this, I truly SHOULD have loved it - and I'm a bit confused why I did not.
Regardless, still, a fun and very enjoyable film to watch.

That's a shame you didn't like this movie as much as I did. I remember seeing this on IMAX and the visual and sound effects were so unbelievable. I don't know if that alone makes the difference.
The next movie on my list is actually Patriots Game, which I certainly have some good hope on.

Or do you really mean the Harrison Ford movie Patriot Games.

Haven't seen the original, had a discussion with Captain Steel and Citizen about it and from that i think one thing about it sounds extremely wrong but otherwise i'm interested in seeing it. I don't think there was anything remarkable about this it was just enjoyable. Colin Farrell was very good i thought, not seen him in much and i've always had the idea that he is a bad actor but he worked for me here. None of the women/girls were particularly great they were all good enough though, Kidman probably least for me. Good story too, not where i thought it was heading at all during the first twenty minutes or so. My biggest problem was some scenes were horribly lit, maybe it was a realism thing since this was set during the US Civil War but it was annoying anyway.

I liked the original so I'm definitely interested in seeing this. Also, since Neon Demon I've like Fanning too. Hopefully I'll get to this soon.

The Foreigner (Martin Campbell, 2017):
Jackie Chan's best performance in recent years and don't let the marketing fool you. It's not so much an action film but more of a political thriller piece with sparse Chan action that is more dark and gritty compared to his usual work (and it works nicely here) but the film works quite well, especially with Pierce Brosnan's character playing a very pivotal role as a former IRA member turned politician who like Chan's embittered father, looks for answers and gets more than what he bargains for.
Final Rating: A
I actually liked White House Down better. Where dat sequel at???
Gerald's Game -

I finally went see Blade Runner 2049 last night. I'm split on this movie. It's definitely one of the better made movies of this year, it wasn't bad, so let me get that out of the way immediately. All the aesthetics of Blade Runner are present: Neon soaked cityscapes, names of 80s companies/products, the synth score, long coats, philosophical musings of what it means to be human, etc., but alot of the movie just didn't feel like Blade Runner. With not giving too much away, the stakes were far too high in this movie. The hard boiled, noirsh direction of the first one is abandoned. Harrison Ford's return was okay. My problem is that we don't really know the character of Rick Deckard that well. In Blade Runner all he did was eat noodles, drink, play piano, dream about unicorns, and get the **** beat out of him. So his return is a tad underwhelming, because there really isn't much to expect. I'll probably stop it there to not ruin anything for those who haven't seen it. Overall, definitely worth seeing and a worthy sequel to one of my favorite sci-fi films (it could have been much worse).

I'm hesitatingly interested in seeing this one. I'm pretty sure I won't like it as much as the original, but I'm interested in Sofia Coppola's work, so I'll be watching this when it comes to DVD.

So I finally saw this. An overall solid movie.
Cons:
- Not a big fan of the propaganda.
- The movie missed to present the motivation of the bombers
- Not very sure how truthful this movie is based on the real event. A movie like this shouldn't include any dramatic parts, the plot is already interesting enough.
To compare with similar movies:
Stronger
Deepwater Horizon
