I might use "Here’s a candy that key be under the radar" when talking about things I find underrated. I love it. It sounds like something a sailor or pirate might say.

I really enjoyed this. It was a little wonky tonally, but Redford was great and the stunts were amazing.

I goddamn love Funny Farm. But I also haven't seen it in years. It may not hold up. But god I remember just loving the fuck out of that thing. Hating Chevy might actually work in your favor here, though. The character in the movie is a giant dick and I don't think you're supposed to "like" him. It's more of an "Almost Sunny" type comedy, where you're meant to find humor and joy in how shitty he is.
Oh boy does it. One of those films I can toss on when I really need a laugh.

I've thoroughly enjoyed every George Roy Hill movie I've watched so far so I'm going to give this one a shot.

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.

that action sequence toward the end was really cool and well done.. but the movie as a whole felt like it was a tad adolescent, leaving something to be desired for my refined tastes

7.3 deafened heroes out of 10

NOBODY is above the law :roll: :haha:

Over the last week I've 'watched' (they were playing in the background)
Ocean's 11 - always enjoyed this
Ocean's 12 - was better than I remembered
Ocean's 13 - Good fun
Identity - Love this movie
Rambo - When I queued it up I thought it was 1st Blood, turned out to be the last in the series, but still good fun

"How's East Haven?" "Sucks."
This is very accurate.

I was scrolling randomly through the various apps and The Shooting caught my eye. I like both Jack Nicholson and Warren Oates, plus it's under 90 minutes.
