lI'll kick it off. Post whatever films or TV shows you have recently watched. I'll kick it off.
Frank - 9.5/10
-My new FAVORITE movie of the year. Michael Fassbender has become my favorite actor.
7500 - 7/10
do the re
-Entertaining enough horror film with a really stupid and cliche ending, which doesn't do the concept or the set up any justice.
Repentance -4/10
-Mike Epps in a serious role. Forrest Whittaker really hams it up as a mentally ill man who takes a Life Coach and his family hostage when the Life Coach breaks the news that he can't help Whittaker any longer. A bipolar Whittaker lashes out and possesively captures and tortures the Life Coach using his own teachings of Karma against him, breaking the hypocritical Life Coach's life apart and making him atone for everything he has done.
About to go watch Moebius! I will update in here with what I think.

Just watched episode 4 of The Knick. Another great ep. About to watch the remake of Red Dawn because I hate myself.

Went to see As Above, So Below on Saturday(One of two people in the threatre)...it was, erhm, uhh good? I almost feel like I have to watch it again to form a real opinion on it.

I threw Man of Steel back on last night with my HBO OnDemand.
I dislike the movie overall, but there are parts of it I like a lot. I also like the music/score a lot as well, even if it's the only one, and it's used constantly. I still like the John Williams one better, but the new Hans Zimmer one is quite good.

Moebius - 8/10
-Very interesting movie. It's rife with the blackest of comedy and some incredibly bizarre and taboo source material. Not one word of dialogue is spoken in the entire film, and the gimmick REALLY works with this story. I really like this movie actually, I love FUCKED up stuff, so I will probably buy and revisit this movie down the road.

Blue Caprice - 7.5/10
-Interesting biopic about the Sniper killers from the early 2000's. Well acted and very well directed.

Funny you mention Blue Caprice, I just watched that last night. I went 6/10. I thought the first half was slow and they dropped the ball on the actual sniper attacks. Also watched Fruitvale Station and Kings of Summer last night. Both were very good. 8/10 for each.

The whole "Every mystery was solved like Adam West Batman solving the Riddler" got old. Some interesting parts. The claustrophobic bit with the camera man was well done, imo |

Pretty much all of this, thumbs in the middle, great Superman main theme that compares favorably to the classic tune, but it should've been used in a heroic moment in the movie much like it was used for Clark taking off for the first time in the trailer. BVS is making me nervous with its clusterfuck of characters; WHY HASN'T ANYONE LEARNED FROM SPIDERMAN 3? |

There's never been justice before now. Ever! No justice for anybody! I realize it's probably referring the birth of the Justice League, but man, it's still a terrible subtitle. |
