Pawn Sacrifice - 6/10

Not quite as good a documentary->movie conversion as The Walk but still an enjoyable watch.

I thought this was a lot of fun when I was younger...now it's kind of cringeworthy. The lady is defs annoying...the little kid was cute. That chanting they were doing when the dude got his heart removed is cool.

Temple of doom & crystal skull were the bad ones, lost ark & last crusade were good.

The Ridiculous 6 (2015) - 6/10

If you like "Blazing Saddles" type of comedy, you'll enjoy this movie.

Creed. 5/10. A by the numbers snore fest with clichés galore.
Think Rocky 1 with a cast reshuffle.

Southpaw. 7/10. Clichéd and predictable but Gyllenhaals intensity is riveting. At least I didn't fall asleep.

Pan 4/10.

I couldn't get past half way. This new adaptation they took on is definitely not for me. acting is b grade.

Snowpiercer - 7/10. Good film, a bit odd at time and an ending that makes no sense. Also the first film that made me happy when a pregnant got killed.

6.5?

I started fast forwarding through that crap to get to the end :D

I read the summary/outcome of the next book so I won't bother with the next one...
Which is also why I won't even be bothering with the second movie.

It was entertaining so a solid 6 from me.

The Ridiculous 6 (2015) 5.5/10

Hot off the press Netflix Studios movie. Adam Sandler & all his gang; it's a very big cast of brand name actors.
My 2nd Western of the year outside of Bone Tomahawk.
It's very stupid...lets get that clearly out the way & most of the jokes are very flo. It's running time @ 2hrs is waaay too long as well. Worth a watch for once; that's it.

Taylor Lautner's role is very stupid. I normally like Rob Schneider but even here his role didn't grab me.

Lol we can't rule out all his movies.

Like I mentioned it's a fresh out the box Netflix Studios movie. Huge listing of actors people know & it's a "Western Comedy".

I enjoyed Seth MacFarlane's A Million Ways to Die in the West...another Western Comedy.
