Re: What movies are you watching?
I’m not sure I liked Digger but I believe it to be a good movie worth seeing (in IMAX). My opinion could change dramatically (for better or worse) after a second viewing. Cruise deserves, at minimum, an Oscar nom.

Re: What movies are you watching?
Cruise is very bad in Digger
Not quite as bad as Sandra Huller
who is not quite as bad as John Goodman
Really impressive how Iñarritu managed to pry such awful performances from a good cast in this awful fucking movie

Re: What movies are you watching?
I think the actors gave great performances relative to the job they were tasked with.
That parliament/tribunal monologue did nothing for you?
Also, I hope this wins the sound design Oscar because I’d like “military general boner sound effect” to be associated with the pinnacle of film achievement.

I refuse to believe that Jesse Plemons is bad in it. That can't be.

He's whatever in it. It's not his fault. The script is just insultingly bad. His monologue near the end is pathetic

I dug the last three or so minutes. Painful to get there, though, not worth it

The Uprising
I'm not against Paul Greengrass' shaky-cam style, per se, but I found it pretty annoying here. Tons of shaky action, but also kind of boring

Re: What movies are you watching?
The shaky cam in this movie is comical. Probably the only reason it's worth watching is to laugh at what poor Paul Greengrass has becomeFarmer John wrote: Sat October 03, 2026 11:37 pm The Uprising

It almost turned into one a couple times. The parliament scene is basically a musical, just no singing

End of Oak Street is a turd, but the last half hour is fun, and Valerie by Steve Winwood being featured was a nice surprise.

I thought the whole movie was really good. I was really charmed by it

November (2017, Estonia)
Wacky little movie. More of a creepy fairy tale than horror. I liked it.

Musicals are best watched in IMAX.
