MOVIES I HAVE SAT THROUGH  II scale of 1-10.  Cinema rating 1^st, mine at the end

Antlers 1:39 -6.4 – Do not watch this movie under any circumstances!! Not even under a double dog dare.  Not even if someone was paying you money to watch it. A large dog with horns under an Indian curse kills and eats people although you never see until the end. Why is it all forest monsters live in the woods of Oregon anyway?  Sounds like a good state not to visit. Unless you bring a dog whistle. I give it .5

Bruised 2:09 – 7.0 – A fun movie to watch if you drink a shot every time you see something that was taken straight out of Rocky. This movie is nearly an exact ripoff  including the training montage. The only thing I found different was I don’t think Rocky had sex with his trainer or I missed it if he did. But if you are still semi sober and make it to the end I thought the big fight was well done.  Or you could skip all the movie and just watch the fight. I give it 5.5

Gunpowder Milkshake 1:54 – 6.4 – I liked this movie because I’ve never seen a movie about a woman who was a trained assassin. I felt like any minute balloons and confetti would drop from the roof as I watched my 100^th movie with the same plot. This one was kind of a ripoff of Leon:The Professional but with chicks. The mom was Circe the bitch from Game of Thrones. But I do like a good action movie with lots of slow motion killing to a good soundtrack so I give it 8.0

Sing 2 1:42- 7.6 - I do like my animated kids movies and this one was a decent  sequel. They used decent songs, several that I knew, for the movie so I could handle the fact it was a musical. Was pretty surprised to hear Bono in it so not surprised to hear U2 songs. At least they didn’t pick the shitty U2 songs. I give it a 7.8

Finch 1:55 – 8.1- I guess Tom Hanks doesn’t like acting competition in his movies cause here’s another one he’s the only one in. But this time is because nearly everybody is dead. He builds a robot to take care of his dog after he dies. Then I was treated to two hours of watching him cough up blood. Real happy movie. But at least it was an original idea and after watching so many movies that are direct ripoffs of others it was kind of refreshing.  So I gave it 7.5

CODA 1:52 – 8.2  I could live with the drama. I could live with the singing. But it was so hard to watch a movie with deaf people flapping their arms wildly and constantly and not understanding a thing they were trying to say. The movie needed subtitles for the hearing impaired for a movie about the hearing impaired. Had a few funny moments. Academy Award nominee, I give it 3.0

APEX 1:48 – 5.5 Watched this before my rule of not watching anything below a 6.0 rating. And because I haven’t seen too many bad Bruce Willis movies. Dumb move!! Willis agrees to be hunted on an island to get out of prison. Then does nothing but wander around the island while all the hunters eventually kill each other. This movie is horrible. I give it 1.0

Last Shootout 1:26 – 6.4 – The type of western that looks like it was shot with a cell phone. The kind where you expect to see cars whizzing by in the background. They are supposed to be out in the middle of nowhere but you can see houses in the background. Barely any shooting. Turrible, just terrible. I give it 1.0

Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City 1:47 – 6.1 – Yet another pharmaceutical company poisons all the residents of the  town and turns them into flesh eating zombies. People should not live in towns with such companies cause it always turns out this way. I like a good zombie movie but give me twist or anything different. Super predictable because its been done at least 50 times already. Boooooring. I give it 2.0 and feel that’s generous.

Ghostbusters: Afterlife 2:04 – 7.3 – Imagine watching the original Ghostbusters but without any of the comedy. Egon (Harold Ramis) dies and leaves his house to his broke daughter and her kids. Most of the original ghosts make their return in some podunk town in the middle of nowhere. But, just when I was hoping Zuul was going to end the world and the movie…. the original ghostbusters show up and save the movie kind of. They had to bring Ramos back as a ghost because he really died in 2014. You have to watch through the credits for some extra stuff that’s funny. I give it 6.5

The Harder They Fall 2:19 – 6.8 -  Why???? Why do I sit thru soooo many shitty movies?? For this!! The best western I have seen in many years. Take a spaghetti western of the past, then replace the dubbed Italians with an all black cast. Replace the Ennio Morricone soundtrack with some reggae. Leave the closeups on the squinty eyes. Add generous bloodspray in the many deathscenes. Throw in a twist at the end. Do all that, and you have a movie that I give a 10.
