and a pretty wife to boot! the worst is the rap battles are fake. the 2 people rehearse their lines beforehand, so it's not coming off the top of their heads like Enimen would do in 8 mile as his character B Rabbit. Love the word "talentless" u dog. he certainly is. I think most of them are. Why is Jimmy Kimmel famous? Or Seth Meyers or that annoying fuck Jimmy Fallon?

Agreed. Think I've said this before, but to borrow a line from "My Favorite Year," he's not an actor, he's a movie star.
I think he was an actor when he was younger and was good at it. once he was in Top Gun, he became a huge star, even though the movie is very cheesy. then he had a string of hit movies and Oscar nominations, where he tilted from actor to big star. then War of the Worlds and MI came out and they made more than most of his other movies and he was the next big action star. He tried to double down on his stardom on the Mummy remake and it was awful. Not just Cruise, but the plot, script and story. I don't mind him. He's better than Vin Diesel or Jason Stathem.
Red Sparrow - no idea why critics like this movie. Murky plot and way too long to get started. very slow in the beginning and the middle and end are just boring, slow and murky. the big end is not a big deal and a yawner. Critics praise Lawrence too. Ugh. Role is not that big of a stretch besides the accent. Overrated to say the least.
game night - predictable with little laughs. thank God I saw it for free. It could've been better if they would've done more with the script and expanded it. they didn't. it was a 1 or 2 trick pony of plot development and it sucked. Jason Bateman can carry a shitty movie but even he couldn't save this dud.
She's fun to look at and she's an ok talent. Not remarkable. She will not make an average movie any better. She was good in American Hustle. I think that was her best performance, but the writing and directing were really good and stylish. She didn't bring the movie down, but she didn't really prop it up either.
a lot of her scenes were cut too but were shown in the trailer. the scene where they meet the mob guy at the club a scene in the trailer is shown as they are all dancing together with hooking their arms to one another. Lawrence and Jeremy Renner are hooked together. in the movie that scene is not shown and Amy Adams' character hates Lawrence's character in the movie, yet they are all smiles in a scene cut from the dancing together scene. Lawrence took several nude selfies of herself at various times and ages and periods of drunkenness. then her phone gets hacked and she's pissed about her rights. well - don't take nude selfies then and you won't have any problems with your phone being hacked. your phone is backed up to the CLOUD. Not hard to hack sweetie. she got very lucky getting the Hunger Games and X-Men movies and then some very prime roles for being so young. Her Oscar win is laughable out of all her nominations, that was the worst one. Naomi Watts got robbed. She will continue to get prime roles as she is popular and still young, but her acting is sub-par to me. JOY was lame. Passengers was awful. Mother - I read was awful.
she seems like a total flake in person and giving interviews. very aloof and goofy. and her last boyfriend was her director and 20+ yrs older than she is.
A couple old ones from TMC (both good, but not great): The Barretts of Wimpole Street. Story of Elizabeth Barrett (played by Norma Shearer); her courtship by the poet Robert Browning (Fredric March); and her battles with her overbearing father (Charles Laughton). The Prisoner of Second Avenue. Neurotic New Yorker (Jack Lemmon) and his wife (Anne Bancroft) confront a heat wave, him being fired and falling into depression/nervous breakdown, a garbage strike, being robbed, noisy neighbors. Based on the Neil Simon play.
never saw this movie, but know all 3 won acting Oscars. That's rare now let alone from 60 or so years ago.
TOMB RAIDER 2018 - sorry but if it wasn't for Raiders of the Lost Ark, or the other Tomb Raiders, this would've been a lot better. It's just lame. Alicia Vikander is not tough enough to be Lara Croft. She's kicking everyone's ass and she looks like she's 100 pounds and has no muscle mass on her arms. Just not believable. Plot was ok till the end. You Were Never Really Here - omg what a disaster. Joaquin Phoenix is getting a few Best Actor awards for this and early Oscar Buzz. Why? This movie is confusing as all hell and I had to Wiki it to find out what the hell is going on with his character. Just dumb and silly. Ending is confusing and not explained. Bad, bad, bad. F, F, F.
Captain Blood. Errol Flynn and Olivia de Haviland. Seems impossible, but de Haviland is actually still alive. Stalag 17. William Holden, and a young Peter Graves. Road House. Hilariously awful. It's one of my guilty pleasures.
she's 102. Stalag 17 is one of my favorites. Holden's only Oscar. They were going to remake Roadhouse with Ronda Rousey, but once she got her ass kicked twice, that idea was squashed like her MMA career. I still think her second loss was fixed. She came out all bad ass and the moment the bell rang, her hands were at her side the entire time till the ref stopped it. She never defended herself. Odd.
