Yes I have been busy, but not enough to stop going to the movies all together. Here just a catch up post of what I've seen:
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2/5)
Peculiarly Quirky but not Particularly Deep.
Queen of Katwee (3/5)
A feel good movie with great preformance and a lot of heart.
Deepwater Horizon (3/5)
Exactly what you expect and better than you thought it could be.
Birth of a Nation (3/5)
A strong drama with a terrific lead preformance that treads very familiar ground.
Middle School: The Worst Year of My Life (2/5)
It has a hidden, and very powerful, layer of depth that is ultimately suffocated under what this movie is marketed as.
The Accountant (3/5)
An unconventional narrative with a rich level of character depth if your willing to wait for a payoff.
Keeping up with the Jones (1/5)
Typical, unfunny, cinematic paste.
Inferno (1/5)
Directed without heart and falls apart under the logic it thinks holds it together.
Doctor Strange (4/5)
A well directed visual and thematic extravaganza, who's greatest sin is fitting into the marvel formula.
Trolls (2/5)
A bold concept that lacks originality.
Hacksaw Ridge (5/5)
A visually an emotionally powerful that stirs inspiration and hope out of horror and triumph.
Almost Christmas (1/5)
Few well directed scenes are undermined by a script whose purpose is to derive conflict at all cost.
Arrival (4/5)
A slow burning Science-Fiction story that both visually significant and thematically rich.
