What's the Last Movie You Watched?

Sinners.

I don't know what scale to judge this one on.

Is it "97% Rotten Tomatoes" good?  Probably not, if for genre alone.  It's a little long, and let's be honest, the plot is thin (although there's obviously some symbolism at play).

But, it's well-acted, slickly directed, has some good music and dance, and has that period throwback appeal.  And, as far as the genre, it's most intelligent than most.  It's a very good watch, even if it could be cut down by 20 minutes.

It was all over the place.  I liked the parts I liked and saw where they were going with it.  I liked the music, the acting and the back story, but main action just seemed completely disconnected.  Maybe that was the point?

Yeah, I read a review that said that it's like two different movies that didn't completely merge.  The review said that's a current trend in horror movies, although I don't have enough of a frame of reference. 

I think I envisioned it as a Mississippi Delta gangster movie, with the antagonists likely to be the Klan.  And then, instead of the Klan, they symbolically turned the antagonists into monsters / vampires.  But, whether symbolic or realistic, the problem was probably resolved too tidily. 

That was one of the cooler renditions of Rocky Road to Dublin I've seen.

Best way I can describe Sinners was that it is boring.  It started off slow and never really picked up.  It is well acted, directed,, the music is awesome, and has a unique script, it just sort of moves along slowly.  Also, while Jordan is great there was no reason he had to play both brothers and the scenes together were a bit disjointed and weird. Worth watching, but I don't really get the hype.

I watched Heads of State, Jackpot, and Deep Cover on 3 straight nights (all Amazon movies).  Jackpot is the one I would recommend the most.  Cena and Awkafina are great together and it is very funny. Also has the most unique concept.

I just watched Superman.  I liked all of it except the portrayal of Superman himself. He struck me as just another powerful superhero, rather than somebody almost uniquely invulnerable (in the absence of kryptonite).
