Western starring Mads Mikkelsen and Jeffrey Dean Morgan on Netflix. Doesn't really do anything different than other Westerns, but I didn't really need it to. Plus it has Mikkelsen going for it. I rate it p. on the good scale.
Watched the unrated Million Ways to Die in the West and felt the cut out scenes did add some additional humor, like the cat running off with the intestines.
My kids are also now running around saying "Mustache Balloon. Mustache Balloon" from the deleted scenes.

A found footage style superhero/villain origin story that I've been meaning to watch for a few years. It's about three high school kids that find some weird object that crashed to earth in the woods and receive powers from touching it. Each of them go on to handle the powers a little differently as they document the stuff they can do. I really liked it.

Yeah it was a good flick. Bought they were going to do a sequel but I think it got canned
lol I actually agree with you Ahoda, beyond some slick action scenes I didn't get the hype with John Wick at all. I felt similarly about Taken and Dredd so maybe it's more the genre than anything
Plus it contained perhaps my least favorite trope in all of movies:
Spoiler
+
the scene where John Wick is about to be executed and the mob boss guy gives a monologue and LEAVES THE FUCKING WAREHOUSE. And instead of shooting him in the head, they decide to suffocate him for some reason? Which conveniently gives enough time for Willem Dafoe to deus ex machina everyone
Taken shall not be spoken with the same breath as Wick and Dredd. Both are great fun and shouldn't be taken seriously. Taken took itself too seriously and sucked
Another movie I really liked. I appreciated the use of 'found footage' outside of the horror genre on both this and Chronicle very much. Thought Gyllenhaal was great in it, and was unreasonably excited when I noticed David Harbour was playing one of the cops on the force with them.

I just didn't have an interest in Taken or John Wick, but I feel like I have seen both (especially Taken) due to the cultural references.
As an old Judge Dredd comics fan, Dredd did a great job with the dystopian element as well as drawing the parallels between the criminals and the Judges ( for example, the crime that got the Judge's there in the first place is exactly how Dredd sends MaMa out). There are so many of the Dredd stories out there that they have a lot to build off of as well if they ever get a chance too, especially the more satirical side. I don't think Walteh the wobot will twanswate vewy weww to scween.

We watched Freaks of Nature and it was decently funny and cute, though it was expected, given the premise. Vampires, humans and zombies coexist but start fighting when aliens show up. Teen human, vamp, and zombie team up to battle the aliens.
Don't look for a deep film. lol

Wasn't bad. Wasn't great. I enjoyed myself enough but won't see it again. Definitely preferred Jackson's
Setting it during the end of Vietnam was the best decision they made. Aesthetically and thematically it worked rly well and the soundtrack made it kinda fun
The characters are pretty bland and you don't get to know them at all. The deaths were also very quick and just like "..oh."
John C Reilly steals the movie. Not only is he funny (he drops the only f bomb and it's hilarious) but he's sorta the only one carrying the heart of the story. I would've loved a movie about just him and Kong tbh, the rest of the characters mattered so little. Kong was also sorta just...there. Especially in comparison to Peter Jackson's
