What Was the Last Movie You Watched?

Well, I just wasted a couple hrs...I 'll never get back...

out of curiosity...The Rum Diary (2011)

Where it all started,..JD & AH...yes, them!

I don't know if I liked it or not?!?🤔

Anyone else?? Opinions?
 
Dear Evan Hansen with the original Broadway star. I loved it, all angst & hopes & realizations. If you like musicals this is a truly good one. On HBO & HBO Max.

These days with movies as well as books if it doesn't grab me some how--intellectually, spiritually, or by the funny bone i have no problem bailing on it.
 
Watched 'Charly' - (1968) starring Cliff Robertson last night.
Based on the book, "Flowers for Algernon".
Great, heart-felt movie.

That got me thinking about the other end of the spectrum of mind altering,
"Terminal Man', starring George Seagal from 1974.
Watched that this morning.

Both are sad (to me) stories and you feel for both characters dealing with a chance
at a normal life.

Intriguing concept and gripping story!
alexander-schoenauer6 September 2014

this is an awesome example of how it is possible for people from various religions and countries to work towards a common goal - a feature film in this case. This fact alone sends out a strong message to the world that there is an alternative to the current global situation ... that people are more than ready to live and work together in a creative and peaceful way.

The film itself offers a grand scope spanning over various continents and it is fascinating that it weaves together so very well considering that it was shot by 25 different filmmakers with their own style and background.

Kudos to the people behind this film!

Yea me too. Despite the proliferation of movies on so many web sites, I usually bail out on most new (or at least unseen by me) movies that I try to watch. Occasionally I will find one that I like, but often I find myself going back to one of about 20 favorites (like the Martian).
 
"The Trip to Bountiful"...FREE on Youtube
Stars Cicely Tyson (she died in 2021 at age 96 😞 )

She was such a good actress. I loved the movie but if you're into action you won't find it here. It was very moving and spoke to some issues seniors face. Very well done. There was some mild suspense but if you're desensitized by action flicks you may not notice it :giggle:
