- DirectorPeter WeirStarsRobin WilliamsRobert Sean LeonardEthan HawkeMaverick teacher John Keating returns in 1959 to the prestigious New England boys' boarding school where he was once a star student, using poetry to embolden his pupils to new heights of self-expression.Have no memory of it, just that it was boring.
- DirectorMartin ScorseseStarsPaul NewmanTom CruiseMary Elizabeth MastrantonioFast Eddie Felson teaches a cocky but immensely talented protégé the ropes of pool hustling, which in turn inspires him to make an unlikely comeback.First half is okay because it feels like the set up to a heist movie, then you realize you just wasted two hours watching a heist movie about pool where the end goal is a whopping $3000. Just doesn’t peak like you’d expect a heist movie to, after the set up it gets very boring, just B-roll of pool being played, idek if there was any risk at all.
- DirectorSteven SpielbergStarsSam NeillLaura DernJeff GoldblumA pragmatic paleontologist touring an almost complete theme park on an island in Central America is tasked with protecting a couple of kids after a power failure causes the park's cloned dinosaurs to run loose.Bad because I don’t have the dinosaur kind of autism.
- DirectorJohn CarpenterStarsKurt RussellLee Van CleefErnest BorgnineIn 1997, when the U.S. president crashes into Manhattan, now a giant maximum security prison, a convicted bank robber is sent in to rescue him.If you aren’t in the 80’s or on cocaine this is unwatchable.
- DirectorPeter SegalStarsChris FarleyDavid SpadeBrian DennehyAfter his auto-parts tycoon father dies, the overweight, underachieving son teams up with a snide accountant to try and save the family business.Good and heartwarming story, but only funny if you like physical comedy. Didn't get a single laugh. This would kill in the early 1900's when the only joke that existed was a guy falling down. Don’t waste your time if you enjoy actual jokes and clever bits. I’m shocked a guy falling remained funny for so long, but a laugh track and herd mentality is a powerful combo.
- DirectorMatt ReevesStarsRobert PattinsonZoë KravitzJeffrey WrightWhen a sadistic serial killer begins murdering key political figures in Gotham, Batman is forced to investigate the city's hidden corruption and question his family's involvement.It’s fine, but it should be 90 minutes. Very ambitious of them to drag it out for 3 hours.
- DirectorBenny SafdieJosh SafdieStarsAdam SandlerJulia FoxIdina MenzelWith his debts mounting and angry collectors closing in, a fast-talking New York City jeweler risks everything in hope of staying afloat and alive.
