Movies
Every Tuesday I look to see what movies came out on DVD. The ones that pique my interest get added to my list of movies to watch. The list usually sits around 100 movies or so. I don't get to the movie theater as often as I would like however they have installed recliners in most of the theaters in my city and they have reserved seating. It's still worth it to experience the big budget action movies on the big screen.

I've done some background extra work for some made-for-TV movies because I really enjoy seeing the movie making process and being behind the scenes. If I could say a line in a movie and have a credit, it would be a dream come true.

Here are the last few movies that I've watched:

Papillon
Another movie that makes me appreciate the country and time I live in. How they didn't all go insane is beyond me.
Mile 22
Good action and story for the most part. I expect we will see a new Asian action star on the rise.
Won't You Be My Neighbor?
That guy was one of a kind. He made the world a better place.
BlacKkKlansman
Crazy plot based on a true story.
The Spy Who Dumped Me
Pretty silly and over the top at times, but good fun.
Sorry to Bother You
Hooked at the start then got progressively strange and really took a turn for the worst.
Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again
It was good, but not the daughter should have moved on.
Mamma Mia! The Movie
Good, cheesy fun. Those songs really get stuck in your head.
Skyscraper
Plot holes, senseless violence and a muscular guy that can't be killed. What more could you want in an action movie?
Hotel Artemis
Nice to see Jodie Foster playing an off beat character. I thought she was great and the movie was fun too.
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
Pretty far from believable, but good fun.
Fighting with my Family
I thought it was a lot more fantastic than it probably was. What do I know.
Avengers: Endgame
I enjoyed the heck out of this movie. It wraps up this phase of the MCU quite nicely.
Billionaire Boys Club
Reminds of Very Bad Things, but based on a true story.
Ocean's Eight
The job was too clean. Not enough adversity.
Solo: A Star Wars Story
I can see why it wasn't a huge hit because it had a singular storyline and wasn't as epic as the main installments, but I liked it.
Avengers: Infinity Way
Preparing to see Endgame!
Book Club
Lighthearted movie in the tried and tested formula.
Bad Samaritan
It had a hard time at the start, but improved once it got going.
Upgrade
Finally saw this movie. Was pretty much as expected. I can see the timeless appeal.
American Animals
Very interesting perspective on a story that actually took place.
Tag
Pure fun.
Rampage
I was expecting a good action flick where I could suspend disbelief, but that movie is ridiculous. It makes absolutely no sense. The writers were overpaid.
Captain Marvel
It's not Wonder Woman, but still great. I think the hype set the bar too high.
Ready Player One
Having read the book beforehand, I expected something a little different. This movie needed more character development and it all felt rushed. The virtual world also gave the movie too much of an animated feel as opposed to a virtual reality.
