What Was the Last Movie You Watched?

The Clovehitch Killer (Netflix stream)

This movie was okay. The father and son weren't very believable. The father was almost a cartoonish figure and the son was uninspired. Most kids would freak out if they thought their father was a serial killer but this kid treats it as a mere curiosity. The girlfriend brought a bit of life to the movie.

I agree with the IMDB rating of 6.6.
 

O Brother, Where Art Thou?​

You have to go to Youtube and search for it to work, FOR SOME REASON!!

Based on Homer's "Odyssey". Rated 7.7 free

Disenchanted with the daily drudge of crushing rocks on a prison farm in Mississippi, the dapper, silver-tongued Ulysses Everett McGill (George Clooney) busts loose. Except he's still shackled to his own chain-mates from the chain gang -- bad-tempered Pete (John Turturro) and sweet, dimwitted Delmar (Tim Blake Nelson). With nothing to lose and buried loot to regain -- before it's lost forever in a flood -- the three embark on the adventure of a lifetime in this hilarious offbeat road picture. Populated with strange characters, including a blind prophet, sexy sirens, and a one-eyed Bible salesman (John Goodman), it's an odyssey filled with chases, close calls, near misses, and betrayal that will leave you laughing at every outrageous and surprising twist and turn.

Very original take...
 
Only The Brave .. a movie based on the true story of the 19 members of the Granite Mountain Hotshots who battled, and ultimately lost their lives, in Arizona's Yarnell Hill Fire during late June of 2013.
 

Forces of Nature​

I had thought I'd seen every one of Sandra's movies ( I like her acting ), but chanced upon this one. I also like Ben.

"A soon-to-be-married man encounters an exciting stranger after his plane suffers an accident on takeoff."

I watched it with a awareness of the many movies built on this theme. It is quite common. This one reminds me of a Shakespeare version...where in spite of all the melodrama , nothing really changes.

FREE:

 
Black Mass with Johnny Depp about criminal boss Whitey Bulger and his collusion with an FBI agent in Boston. It was well done but the subject matter not so much.
 
No Sudden Move

A movie released in 2021 that is actually made for adults ! No capes, masks (well, there are masks but no superhero masks) and no pyrotechnics. There are a couple of plot holes but that's usually common in most heist movies. Great direction by Steven Soderbergh and very well acted by a great cast. Sadly it is not playing in theaters but is showing on HBO/Max.

I watched My Spy on Amazon Prime video. I started it and didn't get back to it for a couple of weeks; I'm glad I continued. I loved it ! Such a cute movie. I will definitely watch it again, hopefully with my son next time.

Just added it to my Amazon list. Will watch it tonight - thanks for the link and recommendation, Diva!
 
Unhinged, starring Russell Crowe (Amazon Prime)

I started watching this movie once before but gave up on it, thinking it was too dumb, but it turned out to be fairly entertaining in a Friday the 13th or Halloween movies genre kind of way. What would that be? Slasher movies? Of course, if you don't like that kind of thing, you won't like this movie. But if you like senseless acts of bloodshed and lots of car crashes, and can throw logic and reason out the window, this movie may be for you! :ROFLMAO:

Thanks for the heads up on this, Mark; just put it in My List.
 
The Darkest Minds (based on a book by Alexandra Bracken). Supposed to be a second movie but I don't know when. I also recently watched The Tomorrow War with Chris Pratt - pretty good.
