Sicario (2015)

A very well made film. Some brilliant cinematography and an outstanding score. del Toro is an all-timer for sure -- I can't recall ever seeing him deliver anything but a top tier performance. Blunt was also excellent. I still don't really like Brolin or Bernthal though.

I'd give it a 7.9, which is a bit more generous than its IMdB rating of 7.1

Man, that was the beginning of an incredible run of films for Villenueve; Sicario - Arrival - Blade Runner 2049 - Dune.

He is doing really well. Will rewatch Sicario soon. Lopk forward to it.

Mustang

«When five orphan girls are seen innocently playing with boys on a beach, their scandalized conservative guardians confine them while forced marriages are arranged.»

Turkish movie. Good start so far, covering mostly the text above.

Took the kids to Super Mario. It was fine... more clever than funny, but they liked it.

saw The Thing projected last night. full house. lots of fun. first time back in a theater in a year or so.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Lost In The Sun

«A small time crook and a newly-orphaned teenage boy team up to perform a string of robberies.»

Don’t expect too much from this, but wanted to see it.

Mustang was clearly the superior of the movies today, although I enjoyed both of them.

[The Argonaut]

I'm on a roll. My last three watches have been L'argent (Bresson, 1983); Hardcore (Schrader, 1979); and Dressed to Kill (de Palma, 1980). All three certified stone cold treats. Very enjoyable

Did you finish Heaven’s Gate?

Did you finish Heaven’s Gate?

I did. It's like a very good HBO miniseries. Worth looking at if you're into that sort of thing

Insurgent

Possibly at the very bottom of all the 2015-movies I will see, but when I watch this amount of movies from a year, not all can be great. On a positive note, I do think YA movies are fairly easy entertainment.

Rosita

«Ulrik misses the love and tenderness of a woman and arranges for the young Filipino Rosita to come to Denmark and be his wife.»

Seen this once before. Good movie, with some really interesting true to life characters.

I’ve never watched Hardcore and feel bad about that

OHHH I'm watching this now. Sounds great.

[JuanHamm]

I think I might watch Master and Commander tonight

[Farmer John]

I think I might watch Master and Commander tonight

Men love this movie.

Rewatched The Witch. Think Robert Eggers is growing on me. Enjoyed it even better this time. Very good role by Anya Taylor-Joy.
