Just watched the conjuring 2. If you're a horror movie fan, this isn't too bad. There aren't many good ones anymore that make you go "holy shiiiit" *bleep* was that?

Terrible. Just garbage.

Everything about it was crap, other than Harley's dialogue.

I didn't make it out that night, and still haven't fit it in. I'm even more curious now because it spent a couple of weeks at the top of the box office charts.

Kingdom of Heaven was pretty good - and hey, Orlando Bloom, Jeremy Irons and Liam Neeson!

We always like a good duster (a "western" for you young'uns that wonder what I'm talking about) which are few & far between these days! We took in Magnificent 7 on the weekend. One reviewer only gave it 3 starts but don't let that deter you - it was action packed, gritty, a bad guy to really hate, some laughs, and lots of dust! I'd give it at least 4 stars....the acting was good and we really enjoyed it. :up:

We saw an older one (released 2010) that I somehow missed. DC comic's "Jonah Hex". I was surprised at how well the character translated to movie.

Fluffy, have you seen it yet? I watched it recently, and I found it wasn't bad. The characters were interesting, I even got a little pulled in by the whole (twisted) love thing going on with Harley and the Joker.

"Dr. Strange" is as good as any Marvel effort so far.

PS: Yes, I did finally see "Suicide Squad". It was entertaining but nothing super special, although I did like Harley Quinn's laugh. Kind of made up for a somewhat disappointing portrayal of The Joker, but Heath Ledger set the bar pretty high on that one.
