See any good movies lately?

Don't judge me much because I am a gal who loves Romantic movies and I saw a pretty good one recently called The Choice. It is from the same author(Nicholas Sparks who wrote The Notebook).
 
I used my Redbox app to reserve The Martian. Went to the machine, it spit out Creed. How do you tell a machine "wrong movie?" Well, at least Creed was good, but I still want to see The Martian.
 
I'm watching Percy Jackson: Sea Of Monsters. It is on T.V. right now. I watched the 1st one and enjoyed it, but never got around to seeing this one.
 
Saw "The Nice Guys" yesterday, pretty funny throughout. Ryan Gosling did really well with the physical comedy.

I remember seeing that in the theater. I took a kid from "juvie" that I was working with on a Big Brother type of a program way back then, to see it. He really liked it. He was a pretty messed up kid. Unlike me, his parents were loaded and he wasn't as good at getting away with his delinquent behavior as I had been when I was his age. Therefore, his problems were more costly. I still think about him sometimes and say a prayer for him. I have no idea whatever happened to him. I know he re-offended shortly after I worked with him so I felt like I kind of failed him in some ways, but we all have to take responsibility for our own actions. He had all kinds of chances to succeed and kept choosing the wrong path. I hope that he eventually got his $hit together. You just never know.
 
Saw the live action Jungle Book the other day, highly recommend it
 
I am watching "Snow White and the Huntsman." I know it got panned by critics but I am actually liking it. I love Kristen Stewert and Chris Hemsworth and its action/adventure.
 
Finally got around to watching Deadpool over the weekend. It was pretty good.
 
Watched the new Vacation. 90 minutes I'll never, ever get back. Avoid at all costs.
 
Jane Got A Gun, starring Natalie Portman. Pretty good movie, especially if you like westerns.
 
I watched The Paperboy (2012) last week. It was good but not great. I really like John Cusack and I was pretty disappointed that while his was a central character to the plot of the movie, he was not on the screen an awful lot. Again, it wasn't bad, it just didn't knock my socks off.
 
Django Unchained

I watched it last night and I liked it quite a bit more than I expected to, I'd have to say. I didn't really want to see it. I'm not much of a Tarantino fan at all. There was some weird stuff in it, like strange songs that just started being played and sang that were just weird and seemed to detract from the movie in a huge way, for me anyway. My son had been trying to get me to watch it with him for weeks and I finally caved last night and I'm glad I did. It had some pretty funny parts that I didn't expect.
 
Has anyone here watched The "Lincoln Lawyer"? One of my favorite movies. I love courtroom dramas. If anyone else like them too, try "A Time to Kill" or "Rules of Engagement ".
 
Went to see "Secret Life of Pets" -- it is kid friendly and, surprisingly, has plenty for adults to enjoy, too.
It worked in Monty Python and a little "Grease" --- very enjoyable.

Saw it tonight, loved it.

We also saw the BFG on friday, if your a Roald Dahl fan or have kids it's pretty good
 
Watched Batman vs. Superman. Holy ****, what a terrible ****** movie. And I do mean terrible, possibly worse than Batman and Robin.

The highlight was Wonder Woman's appearance. The rest was pure ****.

Batman v Supernan

The single worst movie I have ever seen in my life. The dialogue was meant for 12 year olds.

Never mind the way the characters were portrayed.

^ This.

Possibly the worst movie in history. Cinematic toilet paper.

I liked it pretty well. I was handicapped by having read the book and I was comparing it to the book the entire time. I've also read just about every one of the author's books so I definitely already had a preconceived idea in my head of what all of the characters looked like and that always makes it tough when you are watching a movie. It just makes it seem off, like a part of your brain is saying, "hey, that's not so and so".

I was talking about The Lincoln Lawyer earlier, A Time To Kill was a fantastic movie. Tremendous acting by Matthew McConaughey, Samuel L Jackson, and others and an extremely well written story.
