Munich (2005). Originally I thought it was a pro-Operation Wrath of God movie, now I realize it's anti-Operation Wrath of God. However they did omit the Lillehammer affair, as it probably would have made the protagonists too unsympathetic.

The Jubgle Book, wow.

The visuals were amazing, and the world well made. Jon Favreau did an amazing job, and I don't usually like Disney movies. Also, one of the best child actor performances I've seen.

Logan

Excellent pacing, gorgeous visuals, great performances all around...including a mind-blowing one from a 10 year old girl. Truly a fantastic swan song for Hugh Jackman's Wolverine.

Parents (1989)

If you are looking for a thoroughly disturbing horror movie to shock your senses, this will not let you down.

A good one to watch with your partner when talking about children.

Pandemic

The trailer made it seem like a first person movie, but it was just another found footage film. It kinda sucked even without this disappointment, but at least Theon Greyjoy's action sequence was pretty cool.

3.8/10

All About Eve as a Fathom Events thing. I liked the movie but it could easily have ended after the Anne Baxter character blackmails the Celeste Holm character into telling her husband to give her the part. Most of what happens after that point isn't nearly as compelling (or funny) as what happened before. After the movie I read some reviews and saw that a lot of commentators have seen a note of homophobia in it, which left a sour aftertaste.

Wilde Maus.

An Austrian black comedy, written and directed by and starring comedian Josef Hader who I happened to see - quite coincidentally - live on stage this Monday. Which prompted seeing this movie now.

The Impossible

I was fighting back tears the whole movie. Great performances all around. Especially Ewan McGregor and Tom Holland. The depiction of the tsunami was haunting.

Watched The Legend of Tarzan on the way to St. Barths the other week ... meh, it was okay.  Certainly entertaining enough, and it made me excited to get to the tropics (the imagery was really pretty the whole movie) ... I've always also had an odd fascination with jungles, specifically the ones in Africa, which I find much more interesting than the ones in South America or Asia.

Get Out.

I think part of me will forever be scared of boring White suburbanites after watching this movie - and I am a boring White suburbanite. Hadn't seen something so utterly terrified by a film in a long time. Great movie.

Great film.

Also, Shindler's List, the only thing wrong with it is that the black and white get annoying after 3 hours.

I finally were able to see "Willkommen bei den Hartmanns" (Welcome to the Hartmanns), a German drama-comedy about a Nigerian refugee who's family got killed by Boko Haram and who gets "adopted" by a wealthy but increasingly disfunctional, but still very likeable, German family in Munich.



It started at the end of 2016 and was the most watched movie last year. I also found it to be one of the better movies I saw recently.

https://www.theguardian.com/global/video/2016/nov/02/german-refugee-comedy-trailer-for-new-film-willkommen-bei-den-hartmanns-video

"Mr. Hartmann, your 12-year old son has brought 5 prostitutes to our school gym."

"But headmaster ... he only wanted to make a hip-hop video."

Dark. Macabre.



Bottom of the World

If you like a twist to your thrillers, this one had quite a strange ending.

Seemingly simple, yet a real Stephen King inspired reality presents itself.
