Spectre - 5/10. Visuals were slick as ever but ... The plot stunk. The ending in particular was a train wreck. This is Daniel Craig's fourth Bond film. It ties together, albeit poorly, the previous three films. The next Bond film will start with a clean slate. One has to wonder if Daniel Craig will hang around for that.
You must be referring to a different movie... Tom Howard played LBJ in JFK (starring Costner). http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0397642/?ref_=ttfc_fc_cl_t27
Only watched half of it, since my wife couldn't bear to watch the rest of them. Totally disturbing depict of children at war. I would give it a 8/10 from what I've seen. A few things were just too over the top for me.
I personally find Tarantino films a whole lot more gruesome than anything on Beasts. It is easy to ignore realities of the world, but I guess many people go to the movies to escape that. So I understand your point of view.
Its not so much the violence itself that bothers her, but more so how so realistic the acting and settings that protrays the violencce, which makes it quite dark and depressing to watch. It has a different feel then watching some violence from a Tarantino or some horror movies. We stopped when the Commadment ask the kid for a "secret" favor.
Entourage - 8.5/10 Nostalgic movie, I loved the tv series. I still felt like there was something missing, I can't really say what it is, but something left me feeling empty. Pixels - 7/10 Movie about video games attacking the world. Adam Sandler movie, inbetween a kids movie and adult movie. I've seen better and worse from Sandler. Crimson Peak - 7.5/10 Chick Flick, yet still interesting enough for me not to fall asleep. However Loki from Avengers is the only thing I could think of throughout this film :/
Spectre - 6.5 - looks great and is entertaining but the lacked a great story...or even a good one. The Gift - 8/10. Very creepy. Pitch perfect 2 - first half was really good but the second half/ending fell flat.
I thought that opening sequence was going to be a sign of things to come. I fell asleep 1/3 of the way through for about 15 mins. Waltz was hardly the Bond villain I thought he'd be. I'm going to blame that on the script. And oh god, the ending!!! W...T...F was that? 4/10
Delta Force (Chuck Norris) 11/10 - Watched it for the 1000th time. If this isn't the greatest action movie of all-time then I don't know what is. Forget the Bat-Mobile, Chuck Norris' Motorcycle with the rocket launchers and machine guns is the greatest movie vehicle of all time.
A man from UNCLE. 7/10 Really an enjoyable, fun movie. Superman guy plays a great deadpanned sarcastic d******d.
Maybe it was just all of the hype but it just wasn't that fun to watch for me. My girlfriend thought the same and she usually eats this type of stuff up. I was not a big fan of Frozen either. I loved Big Hero 6 though.
