Scott Colmer Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Saw The Whale on an airplane. The attendant warned me that it is a tearjerker. I watched it anyway. Glad I did. I must have looked pretty silly. Wish I was not on the isle. Still worth it. Great movie. Also saw John Work 4 - Meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 Wife wanted to take in a movie today . Her pick . She chose Sound of Freedom . Based on a true story . If you don’t know it’s about child sex trafficking . ( can I say that ?) It was actually filmed 5 years ago but only made it to the big screen this week . I can’t say why because it would be political . I hope it was ok to post this . Was an eye opener for us . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The phrase "Sound of Freedom" to me only pertains to military jet noise. Nothing else... not even the movie title made sense to me except it was a quote used in it.

It’s sickening how much money drives human trafficking and the drug trade and how the money made buys silence and protection and half hearted efforts to lessen the demand and punish those involved in illegal activities. I have not seen the movie yet but I can only imagine the frustration of those trying to deal with these international problems that seem to get little widespread media attention. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Hall Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Watching the movie ‘Marlowe’ right now with Liam Neeson playing Phillip Marlowe. Very dull so far. Very slow paced.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobthehobbyguy Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 I would not wish to watch watch a movie on such a dark topic as human trafficking. Such a dark topic would only depress me. I watch movies for entertainment and escapism. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake45 Posted July 22 Author Share Posted July 22 8 hours ago, slusher said: watched The Getaway on demand from TCM. Why did they pick Sally Struthers for that movie.. I can think of two good reasons. The Getaway is one of my favorite movies of all time. I enjoy it more every time I see it, and I've seen it a lot. Surprisingly, the Alec Baldwin remake isn't horrible. Oh, it's not as good as the original, but it was nowhere near as bad as I expected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you I have both dvds 📀 I enjoy watching the original the most. I do like Alec Baldwin and is a decent movie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOBLNG Posted November 27 Share Posted November 27 Just watched “Skyscraper” with Dwayne Johnson and Neve Campbell on tv. This brings totally unrealistic stunts to a new level I think.🥴 After leaping from an overhead crane over to the 150?th floor of the burning building, the Hero wraps duct tape around his hands sticky side out and does a spiderman crawl around the outside of the building.😂😂 I thought for sure at the end, he would use the paraglide chute that he got from the villains to glide off the building with his daughter to safety, but no…he gets picked up by a police helicopter.😕 Sure am glad I didn’t pay to see it.

espo Posted Saturday at 07:03 PM Share Posted Saturday at 07:03 PM We went to see The Hold Overs yesterday. Great movie set in the Christmas Holidays of 1970 and 1971 in an upper New York boy's school. Lots of great dialog and acting. The story line will give you plenty of laughter as well as a tear or two along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
