Kill the Messenger 6.5/10

Good job from Jeremy Renner as a US journalist who uncovers a drug scandal involving the CIA & their tactics to discredit him. Based on a true story.

Everest (2015) - 8/10

What an intense movie. Very very very good and the visuals of the mountain is amazing! (And Beck Weathers is one tough mother****er)

just watched a documentary on them. There seems to be a moral dilemma for every climber in the death zone....especially when faced with another climber in trouble

Only bug was that Gyllenhaal was wasted in this movie. Only had about 10 min of screen time. Could've expanded on his gung ho character. Good cameo from Sam Worthington in his native accent.

True Story (2015) 5/10

I expected much more from a great looking synopsis, but all in all a disappointing and somewhat confusing watch that never really grips. Jonah Hill is also totally mis-cast and just looks lost sometimes.

Tried watching it twice and bailed each time.

Insidious: Chapter 3 (2015) - 8/10

One of the few franchises that know how to make horror movies. Enjoyed it. Recommended for any horror fan.

Anyone reviewed San Andreas (2015) with the Rock ?
Predictable story and plenty of clichés, but I enjoyed it for the big screen special effects. Grab popcorn and switch brain off for 90 minutes.

Pixels - 8/10 ...... what a goofball of a movie, I loved it. Really took me back. Silly and funny, just what I needed :D


Edit - if you grew up playing arcade games in the 80's, watch this!
