Gladiator II
Kind of a mess. The main character was so boring I just did not care what happened to him.
The goofy "water" battle in the arena was silly.
The ending was not very good in my opinion, anticlimactic to say the least.

Brutal movie. Hardly any nudity which was surprising due to the main setup. But still brutal and NOT for young eyes and ears. One of the guys from Dog Soldiers is in this movie.

Recently I went through the Final Destination movies. I know they are goofy but I still like them. Then I noticed that it appears they have a new one coming out in 2025.

Watched 28 days later and 28 weeks later. Now there is going to be a new one 28 years later so that has me interested. I will have low expectations for the possible new Destination movie. However I will have to try and temper my expectations for the upcoming 28 movie.

Heretic (saw this awhile back) 6/10 - I usually hate movies by A24, but rather enjoyed this quite a bit...until the last 3rd. I thought the first 2/3 was pretty great with good acting and dialogue, and atmosphere. It really built up a lot of tension. But, then it became pretty generic and lame.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 ??/10 - Um...I don't really know. After the opening 15 minutes or so, I kind of slept through most of the next hour with only flashes of what was going on. This has been happening to me a lot more often lately. I used to never fall asleep during movies. I guess being a parent and have 2.5 jobs takes its toll. The last 30 minutes or so at the end seemed pretty in line with previous movies. Maybe a bit more of Jim Carrey being Jim Carrey, and a slightly darker tone. My daughter liked it, which is good, because my ex got mad at me for taking her to the movie instead of her girl scout "meeting" (what can I say, she's a daddy's girl and would rather spend time with her dad).

Moana 2 - Lame 5/10 (Relative to the first, since I don't really care about all the Disney "princess" movies - especially if there are songs). Felt like it should have been a straight to video movie, but they decided they'd pay the main actors for it and throw it in theaters instead.

Kraven - Ugh 3/10. The opening was solid, then it just sucked. It did not help that the theater started the movie 15 minutes late and then the audio got out of sync and for 10 minutes was playing audio from 20 minutes later in the movie. They paused the movie for another 15 minutes to resync it, and didn't bother to go back to where the issue started. So, there's 10 minutes there where we have no idea what people were saying. However, judging by the rest of the movie, I'm sure it wasn't very worthwhile.

Kraven
- Had potential. Starts off strong but kind of fizzles out after a bit.
Should have had better character development and more explanation of various powers he possesses.



Guy Ritchie's The Covenant - Been some time since I watched it. Forgot how much I liked it. If you like these types of movies and have not seen it yet...do yourself a favor and watch it.



The Six Triple Eight - New Tyler Perry movie on Netflix. Pretty good movie. Of course I enjoy most movies that are based in WWII.



Greyhound
- Watched it before and still like it. WWII Tom Hanks is a Capt of a destroyer ship helping escort ships across the Atlantic and fighting **** Subs. This movie seems to go by so fast. Except for the first few minutes of the money it is all action. No real pauses in-between situations.

The Thicket - I guess Tubi is making movies now. This one is not bad. Dinklage always does a good job IMO. Juliette Lewis does a decent job in this. The voice threw me off but then realized they had a reason she was doing that voice.



Cuckoo - This is one of those weird ones. It did keep my interest even if some of the stuff was goofy.
