YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES
The Bill Paxton one? I'm watching it now on This recommendation.
It's so fucking good, I can't even
Really enjoyed it.
I'd say ten years ahead of its time in a lot of ways.

Road to Perdition. One of those movies that has been sitting in my queue forever.
I know I 've seen A Simple Plan but barely remember it.

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.

What'd you think of this?
Good movie but nothing great. Familiar, seen-it-before type storyline elevated by a strong cast and very well shot. Worth a watch but doubt I will see it again, at least anytime soon.

The Salvation - I love a good western and this did the trick. It had a talented cast with good performances, inspired direction with intense visuals, and a bittersweet heartbreaker of a story. Would watch again.

It kind of reminded me of Nocturnal Animals.

yeah? I haven't seen that so I'll take your word for it. The carriage scene in the first act terrified me.

Edge of Seventeen - got it for Woody Harrelson, and he was great in this. Excellent movie.

I watched Blow yesterday for the first time in maybe ten years. I remember it being meh on the cinematic front but enjoyable from a purely movie fan perspective. Something you wouldn't turn off if it came on TV...
This time around, I kind of hated it. None of George's moves from A to B to C seemed realistic, the soundtrack wasn't as good as I remember, and there were a lot less of the coke-addled freak outs or Mexican standoffs that actors and actresses in these sorts of movies often do well. No Scarface or Goodfellas moments to speak of.
Could have been a very disappointing afternoon all around if not for the quick remedy of walking over to the ice house down the street for tacos and beer after the credits started rolling.
