Oct 15, 2021 (Updated Oct 16, 2021)
With Jodie Comer, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck and Adam Driver in a movie directed by Ridley Scott I just had to see it.
And I have to say I wasn't disappointed, loved the idea if the story being told by the three viewpoints which works very well.
The Last Duel is a well crafted movie that although runs at 2h 32mins it really didn't seem that long.

Not as good as first season, but still great performances
So we start the series with a break up, and various hook-ups throughout the series, which is a little like Friends but a little more intelligent. And while it's not as good as the first series, as they move on to the next plan of action, Rob Lowe and Adam Scott make a surprise appearance at the end of the climactic season.
As per usual, standout performances by Amy Poehler, Aziz Ansari and Nick Offerman, who seem to be the strongest characters throughout.

I've seen this film I don't know how many times and I don't think I'll ever get over it. John C. Reilly and Will Ferrell together are gold and I don't care what anyone says! I also recently listened to a podcast that had Adam Scott on and he talked about his experience on Step Brothers and it made me want to watch the film all over again to notice the things he was talking about!
I think this might be my favorite Reilly-Ferrell film - this or Talladega Nights. It's super funny and enjoyable. Definitely recommend.

Old Movie Revisited: Sleeping with Other People. Yea most rom coms suck balls, but this one did not. It's an IFC production so that might explain some of it. I dunno, a good cast might help a tad too. First and foremost it stars Alison Brie, and fuckin A, she is hott! Also stars Jason Sudeikis, Amanda Peet, Jason Mantzoukas, Andrea Savage, Adam Scott, and a bunch of smaller pop ins from a bunch of todays funny people: Adam Brody, Billy Eichner, Natasha Lyonne, but anyways...Sudeikis and Brie play friends who a long time ago at college they lost their virginity to each other, and seperated ways and only bumped into each other years later at a sex addicts meeting. And so its about them finding friendship and not falling into bed together, and this is a rom com so you can see the ending a million miles away, but it's the journey that counts...and this journey includes Alison Brie being scantily clad, several times, so for that alone its worth it. Go ahead watch it!
LeftSideCut (3778 KP) rated Little Evil (2017) in Movies
Sep 18, 2020
Little Evil is essentially a comedy version of The Omen, an ok idea on paper, and an ok idea in its execution. Everything about is just ok. It's an easy to watch piece of fluff.
I like Evangeline Lilly, I can tolerate Adam Scott, and Owen Atlas is a decent enough evil little shit. Clancy Brown appears as the primary antagonist but his talent is unfortunately wasted here. I ALWAYS enjoy Donal Faison, but he's not given much to do which is a shame.
The scares are non existent, but the comedy is occasionally funny, and just about carries the movie to an entertaining enough level
There's nothing inherently bad about Little Evil, it's just a bit forgettable. Probably worth a one off viewing if you're subscribed to Netflix.

The Outback With Mice
The Rescuers Down Under- is a strange movie because it came out 23 years later. Yes you read that correctly. Plus it takes place in Australia. So thats a plus, i think?.
The plot: Cody (Adam Ryen), a boy living in the Australian outback, frees a rare golden eagle from a trap. When an evil poacher (George C. Scott) kidnaps Cody to catch the eagle, a group of local animals contacts the Rescue Aid Society in New York City, who assign their top mice, Bernard (Bob Newhart) and Bianca (Eva Gabor), to the case. To save Cody and the eagle, the agents fly to Australia on a clumsy albatross (John Candy) and enlist the help of an adventurous kangaroo rat (Tristan Rogers).
Its a overall strange movie, but overall its still a good movie. Just 27 years later.

Matthew Krueger (10051 KP) rated Krampus (2015) in Movies
Dec 18, 2019 (Updated Dec 18, 2019)
A Dark Twisted Fantasy Tale
Krampus- is based on the eponymous character from Austro-Bavarian folklore adds more of a dark and twisted tale to it. The one only problem that this movie was PG-13, but remember Gemlins was PG and that came out in 1984 and that movie was dark and twisted. So the PG-13 was good, but could of done more with it.
The Plot: While the holiday season represents the most magical time of year, ancient European folklore warns of Krampus, a horned beast who punishes naughty children at Christmastime. When dysfunctional family squabbling causes young Max (Emjay Anthony) to lose his festive spirit, it unleashes the wrath of the fearsome demon. As Krampus lays siege to the Engel home, mom (Toni Collette), pop (Adam Scott), sister (Stefania LaVie Owen) and brother must band together to save one another from a monstrous fate.
You Better Watch out for Krampus.
