My friend makes me go to every super hero movie. Most range from mediocre (Spider-Man movies) to great (Black Panther). This one just sucks. Plot that is too horrible to describe, incredibly cliched in every way, and the dialogue- oh, please! Jason Momoa is passable, and mostly if the other actors try their best not to smirk as they deliver their lines. The special effects are good despite being totally unbelievable. But it's a eminently forgettable movie that never needed to get made.

The Endless
(I) (2017)
Low budget and lackluster
25 August 2018
Not sure what some others liked about the film. Had a mildly interesting premise, but the characters were pretty one dimensional. I never became all that interested in what was holding them all there.
In the end, when the brothers were finally trying to escape, I didn't care if they did.
Really unsure what was the point. That's you can't go back again? That brothers should listen to each other? That life can be a meaningless loop? Or that life is better when you can make choices?
It felt like these guys could make a good film, this just wasn't quite it.

So many reviewers are WAY too critical!

Look, I'm not saying this movie is up there with Casablanca, but it's a very enjoyable 2 hours. The acting was great, the story was fine. I think so many folks are waiting for the next great film that they forget to just to just sit back and enjoy a movie. It's definitely better than 75% of the movies out there.
A Ghost Story
(2017)
Ungodly dull. I hope the afterlife isn't this boring.

Warning: Spoilers
Nothing happens, period. It's supposed to be some artsy take on meaning of life, eternity, or something, but a middle schooler could have filmed this. The ghost just stands there for hours and hours. He's supposed to be there for years, then he goes BACK in time for no particular reason. If it weren't for the (too) small bit of music you would have thought it was a middle school project. No special effects. I hope Casey Affleck wasn't paid much, since he's visible for about 10 minutes. The rest is somebody (Affleck?) standing almost motionless with a sheet over his head. The entire screenplay must have been three pages long. Single sided. Double spaced. My gosh, even the credits are completely silent. The special features were just these artsy filmmakers blathering about the movie. I struggled to stay awake, texted the entire time and missed nothing. Please save yourself two hours and skip this dud.
November Criminals
(2017)
Not as good as some people say, not as bad.

Okay, I agree with many of the criticisms posted on here, the plot is thin and unimaginative. But the acting is good- Ansel Eghorn is okay, the others are good. The cinematography is good, even the music is good if somewhat forgettable. A good Saturday afternoon watch, especially if you can pick it up free at the local library.
