Idk what else you would have done to revitalize 21 jump street I mean if it wasn't who would have given a shit. The predator is either dumb intentionally or non intentionally but i wouldn't say its a comedy.The last jedi had way more comedy than a star wars film should have I will certainly agree there.Yes its a trend but there is in some ways only so much you can do to bring a dead series back.Now if they should even be making these movies if they need to do that is a better argument. I also mentioned the new Shaft could be fun based on the fact that they wen't with a 21 Jump Street approach. The Predator felt like I was watching a parody rather than a Predator movie, there was way too many jokes. That scene in the hotel room was so cringeworthy, most specifically all the tourettes jokes with Thomas Jane's character throughout the film. Tourettes guys capped that market, I don't need any more Tourettes humor. I get that Shane Black incorporates humor into his movies and I expected that, but it was comedy overload. I know that. I am of the apinion that shane black said hey lets write the the dumbest scrit ever and see if they let us get away with it.Annnd... They did!

Booksmart was Superbad 2.0, but fucking funny as hell.
Having said that, less coming of age tales with loads of rich kids, please.

I absolutely loved it. I don’t think I stopped smiling once. Going to have solid replay value for me for sure.

I'm gonna see it again tomorrow
the only negative thoughts I had during the movie were in the first 10-15 minutes introducing everyone
it felt weird tonally and too shifty, but then the movie continues to care and build up all of the secondary characters so it all came together

The walkout movie for Cannes this year is a 4 hour film with a 15 min oral sex scene from the director who brought us Blue is the Warmest Color.
All the coverage regarding The Lighthouse and Parasite are getting me stoked to see both of them. Takeshi Miike's new film is getting some positive buzz too. Terrance Malick's new film is also getting some good reviews as well.

Brightburn is one of those films that it should've been good in theory, but it's bogged down by lazy writing.

oh man I cant wait to see master perv weirdo's Kechiche new sex art film about butts, Mektoub, My Love: Intermezzo.
Parasite must be really good. Malick film will be best since Tree of Life, and the Screenplay winner Portrait of a Lady on Fire sounds great too. Luckily Neon got this and Parasite so we'll actually get to see them in 2019.

So Cold Pursuit was definitely a movie No good? I loved In Order of Disappearance and thought Neeson would do well in the father's role. Did they just get too campy with it or what?

I really enjoyed it. I didn’t know what to expect, but I guess I wasn’t expecting that. Dark, violent, and funny. Great way to kill a couple hours on a muggy ass Sunday.

So much happens so frequently that you have no time to feel for a character, which I think is best for what this movie was.

Oh word okay. The original post made it seem like it's not great, but from the sounds of it it's just like the original. Gonna check it out.

The Perfection is also fun, but delightfully trashy. It's what you get if Park Chan Wook made a revenge film that mixes Black Swan and Whiplash.

Like, I've been wanting to see Ash is Purest White since last year's competition. And then yes what Jared said.

Booksmart was really good. tight, not one wasted scene. unlike Long Shot, which I also saw today. it was fine, but yessss tooooo long. felt like early 2000s movie that plays on TBS on the weekends.

Delightfully trashy should be the tag line for this flick. I eye rolled through the whole movie but maybe that was the point. If this had’ve actually been a Park Chan Wook we’d be having a different conversation here

If this had’ve actually been a Park Chan Wook we’d be having a different conversation here The fact that Lizzie would still team up with Charlotte even though she made her cut her own arm off is beyond stupid. As soon as that part happened, I was willing to embrace the dumb trash I was watching.

Long Shot was very just fine. That’s the perfect way to describe it. I enjoyed it for what it was as a romcom (and I actually really fucking love romcoms). Booksmart had me grinning ear to ear the whole time. I have gripes, but they’re small and more to do with me and less the movie than anything.

Yeah, Booksmart was so good. Olivia Wilde is legit behind the camera, it seems.
