The Accountant 2
I can't tell if this movie is just as good for different reasons or not as good because it isn't the same as The Accountant. There are some huge departures from the original, but it makes up for it in other ways. Howe

Mission: Impossible Movie Series
As the series has moved forward, it moved forward in the best direction. The average, IMDB score is 7.2 for the whole series, with the worst two being 7.2 for the first one and 6.8 for the second. From there is a 7.4 and above. This series has done something for me that I feel like a lot of...

Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning
I hope that Tom Cruise as Ethan is done, at least as the primary character. At this point I am cool with them rebooting it or doing a new generation. If they were to reboot, I am not sure who would replace them that would be able to insist on the realism that we have gotten for the last 10 years

Only the Brave
The pacing is my biggest issues. High highs and super low lows. It is just really hard shifts that take you away from what is going on. I understand what they were trying to do with showing how the lives of these people are, but the transitions feel choppy and hard.

Sinners
To me, this movie to be more about the music and because of how it is presented. The music makes you want to listen to the blues and just feel the rhythm in your body as it plays out. To "Stomp yo feet". They way they show the magic and evolution of music is almost worth the watch by itself.

Mission Impossible Fallout
The story for this is my favorite in the series. What I think that this movie does better than most if not all of the others is the weaving pattern within the individual movie. This turn and that. Move and counter move. It feels organic and impulsive to the characters

Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning
As this is one of the last movies in the Tom Cruise is Ethan Hunt Mission Impossible world, they did not hold back. There is a great cast of people and they play very well together.

Ep 13 - Fantastic Four > Superman
We all really enjoyed this movie. I, Garrett, think that is is a VERY similar movie to Superman as far as what is going on, but much better presented. A movie I am looking forward to watching again.

Lone Survivor
This is a great story. Not for the actions of those involved, but for one simple line: "You are never out of the fight!" That is the prevailing lesson and process in this movie. Press on. It is honestly a good life lesson to hold on to.

Thor The Dark World
I do not like what they did the Silveg. First off, he is played by a Skarsgard and deserves to be treated as such. I get why they made it happen, I just think the degree of it is more than any of the others portray and so it just feels extra. Jane is fine, Darcy is fine, Thor and Loki are solid.

Warfare
As I was writing this, I had a thought. They put a LOT of emphasis on this movie being based on their memories. I feel like that is intended to basically allow A24 to mess with the story a bit, or it is contradictory to the official story. So take that as a food for thought.

Moneyball
The premise of this story is cool. I mean the evolution of a sport is one of the best part of sports. Think old school basketball when it had Pistol Pete and no dunking. It was boring, and it is boring again. I am not a big sports fan, but I do know that the dunk contest have been weak
