      I'm sure someone has said something about "Alita: Battle Angel," but I knew nothing about it and stumbled across it last night just looking for something science fiction. It's a manga-based cyberpunk origin story about a teenage girl, which to me sounds just awful. But it's not. It's well worth a couple of hours viewing. B+, which includes a bonus for offering something at least a little bit unique.

        Watched Moon again last night with Sam Rockwell. I enjoyed it. My wife fell asleep and my boys were confused... it was Father’s Day, so I got to pick. :-)

          I watched Ad Astra yesterday. I knew virtually nothing about it, except that Brad Pitt was an astronaut trying to rescue his father (Tommy Lee Jones) trapped in deep space. An interesting movie... I think I liked it... but suffice to say, it was not the feel good Father's Day movie I thought it would be...

            Furie (2019) 8/10
            Pretty great Vietnamese action film about a mother going after her abducted daughter. I seriously enjoyed it and it's on NetFlix.

            The Raid: Redemption (2006) 8/10
            Holy crap, how did I miss this? Amazing action from Thailand, it shares the same plot as Dredd but mainly amazing hand to hand action scenes, really unforgiving.

              Addams Family (2019) Better than I expected. I enjoyed it.
              You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                I'm relieved to hear that. I'm a devoted fan and was put off by reviews. But honestly, I've found something to like in every iteration of the classic cartoons.

                  Just watched Mad Max

                  Haven't seen it in over 30 years

                  Was surprised how much of the dialog I couldn't understand because of the thick accents.

                  It was like watching a foreign film with no subtitles.

                  Luckily most of the action spoke for itself

                        I was looking at this and couldn’t make up my mind about it, if it was worth a rental.

                        I absolutely loved 1917... incredibly shot story. But I love a good war movie.

                          We watched Hamilton this evening on Disney+

                          My wife's been pretty interested in seeing it. It took me a bit to get into it, but I think we all enjoyed it.

                              Dune (1984)

                              Yes, I had never seen this film (still haven't read the book). I know what I'm about to say runs against some of the thought here, but I found it boring. I had to force myself through it. I know it was a lot for Lynch to try and jam into 2 hours and 17 minutes, but it suffered because of it. Lacking the ability to really define the characters but maintaining the grandiose storytelling style (wow, I hated the voiceover) left the movie feeling very hollow. I couldn't really connect with any of the characters and, consequently, was not that invested in the outcome of the story. This story seems better suited for a series. - D

                                An Evening with Beverly Luff Linn

                                90% of people will not find this utterly hilarious movie even remotely funny. This is a very specific comedy aimed at a very specific audience. It is NOT a better type of comedy aimed at a superior audience. Its just you will have to have a very specific love of very absurd, incredibly askew, sweet characters. Characters that make Wes Anderson characters look like Hallmark cliches. BUT... if you do, you will love Beverly Luff Linn. Its basically a sweet story about the difference between love and fascination, but it's told in a such a farcical, ludicrous way. - A
