Recent movies you saw - recommend or no

Just saw this movie and wondered how I missed it. Maybe the best movie you've never seen and heard of. Stretch (2014). Wildly offbeat, crude/extreme, lots of cameos and a great performance by Patrick Wilson. Much respect to many of the roles he takes. And a crazy backstory to why you've likely never heard of the movie before. Currently 86% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.

I definitely see this one going cult classic. Highly recommended. Cheers!
 
Just watched this (Stretch) and I gotta agree ... with some movies I'll occasionally be on my phone but I barely picked it up. Has it's funny moments ... like the skydiver landing on the limo. LMAO.
 
Watched Wind River on Netflix. Jeremy Renner has done some decent flicks.

Highly recommend.

Saw Wind River and liked it too.

Watched Jungle the other day. Movie based on a true story about a backpacker in the 80's (Danial Radcliffe "Harry Potter") was decent, pretty impressive the will power.
 
Ricky Gervais - Humanity

Recent release on Netflix.


Love him or hate him, his perspective is brilliant IMO.

Definite recommend.

To me, the director Carnahan has a great history. From Narc (TV) to MI III to LA confidential to The Grey to The A-Team (I enjoyed it) to Smokin' Aces. Nice. Stretch is even more robust and entertaining :). Some articles talk about this movie being Carnahan's version of The Hangover, but even more... robust.

The entire rapper scene is hilarious alone and such a small part of the movie.

The film brings the goods on many levels. Amazing one liners in the movie, for example.
I need ‘a driver, a confidante, a bag-man and a protector’

And a link to a picture with some minor adult language.

I don't want to give much of the show away so I didn't even post any trailers.

The premise is the guy's world is spiraling out of control and he decides to embrace it, over one day. He wins some and loses some. Multiple times I thought it couldn't get any worse for him, and it does. The setup in the movie is quick and fairly conventional so pay attention. I'm a fan of inner monologue in movies, and this one delivers that. A wild ride and highly highly recommended.

Cheers!

and ppl go punish themselves on purpose on the Naked and Afraid series.
 
Watched Darkest Hour yesterday. Gary Oldman is a great actor, he did very well with his portrayal of Churchill. Would make a good weekend if you could watch this first and then follow up with Dunkirk.

Yep, very good. When a co worker told me who the actor was i couldn't believe it.
 
Ready Player One - great pop corn movie. Lots of references from back in the day.

Highly recommend.

It comes at night - poor story, not thrilling, not scary. Other than a turd I don't really know what kind of movie it is supposed to be.
 
Saw Death of Stalin the other day. If you like Jeffrey Tambor (the grandpa in Arrested Development), you'll love it.
 
Let it Ride. A documentary about legendary snowboarder Craig Kelly; it's amazing and entertaining. An excellent film with lots of personal moments as well as the history of the sport. "A style master". It showcases amazing skills and stunning scenery with some extreme riding. Highly recommended. This doc was posted here years ago.

Watch it here streamed for free!

The wife and I went to see Chappaquiddick this evening.

I'm well versed in political history so I knew the backstory behind the movie, but my wife had zero idea what it was all about, but we both enjoyed it. Well written, well acted, and mostly true to the actual events. Even someone who has zero knowledge of the actual events of the day would still enjoy it IMHO.
