Saw this in 2019, and didn’t like it that much. Will give it an early Sunday morning try.

This is far below Luc Besson at his best. Like a pale copy of his earlier work.

This was a ton of fun. It's everything you'd expect. Some super graphic stuff that really got to me, too.
My dad argued with me last night that the plane from Cocaine Bear was the same plane involved with DB Cooper.

Empire Of Light
It’s a very well done movie with some huge problems with its storytelling. Very mixed results but the photography and score are out of this world. I would have seen an hour of that theatre alone.

I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I was pretty disapointed with Clerks 3

I saw it'd popped up on Netflix, so had it on while I was doing stuff in the garage. It's average at best

Annie (2014)
Not sure I understand why the ratings for this are awful, even if it is basically a movie for kids. It’s sweet and charming, and has some nice tunes. The lead actress did a good job.

The King of Staten Island
It was okay. Some sweet moments. Burr is a better actor than you'd expect from a career stand-up comedian. Are there any better actors that made this switch later in their lives?
I wonder if Buschemi did this one pro bono. You just know he was fizzing to play a fireman.

i remember this being merely ok, always super long like in every Apatow flick since Funny People, and yes Burr was good.

I thought the other comedy Davison did around that time was way better...Big Time Adolescence, that one
